Will anyone care or notice if he does?

The liberal media for five seconds, perhaps.

Don’t discount that built 20% to 25% Mormon vote that will go to Romeny. The Mormons will be all in as they were last time, and I think they will double-up this time. This was beautifully clear in our Nevada caucus and I am quite certain behind the scenes it was exactly the same in every other primary and caucus (despite the best efforts of the young enthusiastic Ron Paul supporters.) The Mormons were everywhere, controlling everything. I saw that at our county and state conventions as well.

If you do not unite behind one candidate then Romney could very well sail through to the nomination gathering enough delegates along the way, plus the super delegates owned by the GOPe. Remember that though the early primaries delegates are allocated via percentages the later primaries are winner take all, and Romney could pull it off again with his pluralities.

Again, the ONLY way to stop this is that if Romney gets in is to coalesce around the top candidate to make sure he wins every primary by at least 50%. That means giving up your favorite candidate and going with Donald Trump, who is the only one big enough to stop Romney, and who can also win the general (we know that Romney can’t.)

What a Romney nomination will do is keep the GOPe in place, and allow them to continue to disenfranchise and betray the people who elected them. So if Romney announces, forget Ted Cruz, Ben Carson, Scott Walker, Carly Fiona, et al, and make the decision as to whether you want Trump or you want Romney, those will be your choices, your ONLY choices.

That means you too Nick Carraway! All those things you don’t like about Trump are double for Romney!

If he jumps, it will be to ignominious failure.
