Some are sanguine about the Mitt Romney's chances of wrapping up the nomination if he wins Iowa and New Hampshire—but Joe Scarborough's prediction in such case was sanguinary.
On Morning Joe today, Scarborough predicted "there will be blood" among conservatives if they see Romney cruising to the nomination.

Scarborough predicts conservatives will revolt if they see Romney cruising to nomination. Ping to Today show list.
For once, a broken clock is right twice a day. The conservatives, especially the TEA Party people, didn’t unite behind Palin. So she didn’t run. That’s the real story.
So the GOP will get the Viking Funeral it richly deserves.
Best,

The Republican Party of Dole and McCain needs to be put out of its misery. This year’s election may do it.
We’ll keep building the principled alternative, in preparation for the day conservatives get sick of being played for fools.
Romney is just the guy to get me to vote for a third party.
Even a stopped clock....
At least stick to being factual. Palin did not run. People don’t unite behind a person who is not running.
The Tea Party wasn’t formed to push single candidates. It was formed as a watchdog and promoter of limited taxation and Constitutional government.
The GOP may well get what it deserves, but the people will get a Communist turd dirty at both ends for 4 more America destroying years.
Gets thrown in the trash and replaced with a “New” clock that keeps the time correctly....
Dems want blood in the streets so we can be officially labeled the enemy and under indefinite arrest, etc.
Wrong Joe, there will be blood if zero gets elected for another 4 years.
Joe is nothing more than an Obama buttlicker. Regardless of who wins the nomination, you’ll see Joe and his MSNBC pimping a 3rd party run by Ron Paul and/or Donald Trump to ensure that Reggie Love’s socialist boyfriend wins a second term.
“The conservatives, especially the TEA Party people, didn’t unite behind Palin. So she didn’t run. That’s the real story.”
No, that’s the PERCEIVED story.
Palin and Cain were run out of town on a rail, politically raped and lynched because the mainstream media (Ministry of Truth) made it happen.
We let it happen only because we are truly without power. The only real power is held by the liberal cabal. The mainstream media is owned and managed by leftist/gay/pagans.
True democracy is impossible now because the vast majority of the voting public are easily distracted by pretty shiny objects.
How about a Occupy Media Movement? The Tea Party was correct in so many ways but failed in that it didn’t take over the conversation. OWS had success because it had a vast army of trust-fund-babies who didn’t need a job, who could afford to camp out for weeks at a time.
The Tea Party obviously has had vastly larger rallies (9-12) but, at the end of the rally everybody goes home.
In order to make the changes the Tea Party stands for we need to be able to sacrifice our jobs, our families, our very lives. Not unlike those who revolted against England more than 200 years ago. I am not calling for violent revolution although we got da guns and the libs don’t ;-)
For your consideration;

If enough ‘conservatives’ stay in long enough to split the remaining 70-80% of the polling/votes, Romney could sneak in. That is how McCain managed to get the nomination in 2008.
Of course, as Rick Perry pointed out on Fox&Friends this morning, 40% in Iowa are still in the ‘undecided’ column. When they come into play [actually start casting votes], the whole field could be radically changed by tomorrow evening after the votes are counted.
In other words, this is still a toss-up — much to the chagrin of the Media and pollsters.
I am sick to death of the GOP determining the candidate by whose turn it is next. That kind of mentality gave us Dole and McCain. Our republic literally hangs in the balance and the GOP is shoving Mittens down our throats.
In Virginia, at least, they may be surprised by what happens. By changing the rules for the primary petitions, they have left me with two choices: the GOP’s annointed one who can’t get over 25% after 8 years of trying and the ‘crazy uncle in the basement.’ I’m seriously thinking about voting for the crazy uncle just to send a message to the GOP.
The only thing Scarborough could ever predict is that Mika will make a fool of herself at some point in a show that nobody watches.
It was in part because of RINOs like Scarborough that Palin
didn’t run. If I had a dollar for every time he called her
stupid I’d be a millionare. He nauseates me. MSNBC is a good fit for this turncoat creep.
“What man or mouse with a fully functioning human brain and a résumé as thin as Palin’s would flirt with a presidential run? It makes the political biography of Barack Obama look more like Winston Churchill’s, despite the fact that the 44th president breezed into the Oval Office as little more than a glorified state senator”

I increasingly thing the GOP “strategy” is to present a NE liberal politician so that they can presumably capture centrist democrat voters who along with moderate republicans can elect the next President and preserve the status quo.
Then again, ignoring the conservative wing and imploring them to “hold their nose” has been a hallmark of GOP “strategy” for the last 6 presidential election cycles, and is again likely for the next 6.
thing?.....Think....
They know what is best for you.
