Romney is.

Another anyone-but-Romney collapse: Guess who

Mitt Romney again solidified his fron-trunner status this week as Newt Gingrich's anyone-but-Romney position collapsed. Prediction market data, including Betfair and Intrade, now give Romney a 65.6 percent likelihood of victory in the Republican primary, compared to Gingrich's 11.0 percent and Ron Paul's 9.2 percent.

If Romney wins Iowa then every single Iowan who went on TV to tell everybody else that pressing the flesh in Iowa (so they could look you in the eyes) was the most important key to winning the state was lying.

Voters do funny things, and Iowa loves their status as first primary, but right now Romney is in front nationally.

The Tea Party won't go for him. If they can't even accept Mitt Romney, they will never support Huntsman.

I'm telling ya...this topsy/turvy stuff with these 'flavors' constantly switching places...makes me think we could see a 'New' face on the field. Palin mentioned it...we know there is no solid, consistent favorite of the GOP 'string pullers.' >yet<

Someone, with attributes, could take this nomination by storm.
Who might that be? If that happens, likely be after the Iowa vote on January 3, '12

Intrade made a drastic change this week in about two days. Actually Romney started to go back up right before Nikki Haley's endorsement was announced and just continued to climb.

So Conservatives are running around in circles. They started off with the very pathetic Romney and end up with this drip. What else is new? Romney is the unwanted frontrunner and represents a party that has stood for failure 11 years running now.

Romney a losing proposition if he's the GOP pick to oppose this great President.

Are you really Todd Palin? You are the ONLY poster on here who seems to give a crap about Sarah in the least?
