It is best for the GOP to end this primary sooner rather than later. It has been a bit embarrassing. There is always some bad blood in either of the parties' primaries, but this was ridiculous at times.

Romney is the best of the four left to beat Obama in my opinion. He has a huge lead and it is time to support him or give Obama another 4 years as the longer this drags on the more Romney loses $ fighting Santorum and not Obama -- who is currently outspending Romney in 2012, which most people don't realize.

Well guess using the logic of some of the Dems on here, the American people must be soundly rejecting Obama. He's only ahead because he's outspending Romney. He could never win without outspending his opponents because nobody likes him.

Your average 9-year-old can clearly see that Richard Santorum is not presidential material. So it was always just a matter of time till most con's started rallying around the Etch-A-Sketch with lips.

They simply can't wait much longer to start applying the lipstick and using the smoke and mirrors to try and sell this stiff's (regressive and dangerous) policies to the masses...

Its pretty sad (considering the parade of clowns that made up the Republican field) that it took Flip Romney this long to secure the nomination.

Its safe to say that most of Obama's spending has been for constructing his field organization as opposed to the millions wasted by Romney on attack ads against extremely weak primary candidates.

Romney seems like he has a problem with maintaining a national double-digit lead over any of his GOP rivals for more than a week. In fact, if you look at the GOP national polls on RCP now, that 16-point cushion Romney had a few days ago has eroded some to between 8-12.

It is beyond ridiculous to keep this thing ongoing. They are making it so much more difficult on the nominee than it should be. Romney has done 5 fundraisers in the last two days and is still having to run defense on Sanorum and Newt's (to some extent) attacks. It's crazy.
