Tough to say. I think Gingrich and Palin could both do what Romney can't - motivate Conservatives to get out and vote, since many Conservatives aren't going to vote for somebody like Romney who really should be running with a (D) next to his name. Conservatives know the thread Romney presents to this country.

Gingrich could also take on Obama head-to-head. Romney can get easily flustered, and unlike in the primaries, nothing will be off limits in the general election. Romney really hasn't had the kind of pressure brought to bear on him that will happen in the general.

The most pressure Romney has had was as Governor of Massachusetts, and he bailed on that when he figured out he couldn't win again. I dread the thought of Obama praising Romney in a debate for inspiring him to come up with Obamacare.

There's still time to find somebody that is not going to wreck this country like a Romney administration would.
