With Romney losing independent voters, the establishment will be in a full blown panic! I love it! :-)

I`m entertained by it too, but all the GOP candidates are shedding Indie support. That`s the problem.

Good news for Romney haters. Bad news for the other two candidates. Those independents are going to go to obama. It’s a lose-lose situation for us at this point.

Someone was mentioning on a thread last night that the term “independents” now includes a lot of disaffected Conservatives who formerly considered themselves Republicans. I think that is a very sage observation.

So, in many cases the term “independents” may not mean just the “mushy” middle anymore; and, hence, is being entirely misinterpreted and miscalculated by people like our “friend” Mr Rove and other GOP strategists.

...and, yes, I consider myself one of those disaffected Conservative “independents.”

Sarah Palin on FOX this morning saying if there is a brokered GOP convention she would not preclude the possibility of running if “tapped” to do so.

We shall see.

There is an urban myth out there that all independents are moderates.

Good news: this greatly reduces the chance that Mitt will be the nominee.

Bad news: It opens the door to a brokered convention and the Elites forcing a nominee on us who is even worse, without getting even Mitt’s level of scrutiny.
