The problem with Romney’s schtick is that people have seen it for so long. His lies and attacks. They are sick of it and of him. They know he packed the last debate with his henchmen to boo. And they know that he and Rue Paul have entered into a Faustian pact. And more to the point they know he is a liberal elitist who put across Romney Care gay marriage. They also know he supported the WallStreet bailout for Goldman Sachs, but told Detroit (which gave him his start) to drop dead. He is a disloyal weasel.

Add this to the fact that they just don’t like the little effeminate preppy.

No conservative believes that Rick Santorum is not much more conservative than Romney. And the blue collar Democrats in Macomb county can’t wait to get out and vote against Romney. I just don’t see how Romney gets enough of a turnout in MI to win.

I'm telling you, his scorched earth tactic is working, the polls aren't lying. Santorum has gone from a shoe-in to a virtual tie in a week here. It's why both Newt and Santorum have to survive until the convention, because once Romney takes out one of them, the other would be taken out much easier. Two targets make it more expensive, and less likely to work.

I hope you’re right but the thing I hate most about polls is that they so often pan out.
