I'm not convinced they will do that....Progressives know Obam isn't into the Presidency and he's been loosing his base and popularity for a long time. Many began supporting Romney behind the scenes sometime back as the "Replacement" for Obama....and obvious why they could "live with" Romney as they recognize he really is a Progressive with an R.
The media will be happy with either Romney or Obama as we saw their support for Romney in this Primary. What will be the deciding factor for which one they push out their harder are the "owners' of the media.
We'll see a "show" but I'm further from the fact it's going to be a blood bath for Romney....the true battle is this Primary....also obvious..and if this can go to convention.
Jeb Bush agreeing to a possible VP position was to help defuse the push for a convention as he was the lead dog put up for that. It was another checkmate On Newt's push....just as Romney announcing he's won at the RNC...was a checkmate
None of the Elites of either party want this to go to convention....and that's the battle now fought behind the scenes and playing out as we go.
Which is why I like the idea of getting just 1% of the patriotic right (3 million people) to the convention in Tampa to chant, "NO Mitt!"
The elites would buckle, and we'd have a chance of getting a real conservative for our nominee.
Sorry, that would be 1.2 million.
