Conservatives at the core of the Republican Party are coalescing behind likely GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney faster than expected....

I smell backroom carrot. One of the reasons - perhaps the only reason - why Romney won was the GOP-e's "second is next" rule. By that same rule - their rule - the heir apparent is now Rick Santorum.

My preferenc is Scott Walker for VP, then run for Pres in 8 years.
