All Romney has to do is ask, “Well let me know a little about your church. Who was Donald Young?”
In a Romney vs Obama election, it would probably be a good move to have a third party candidate such as Ron Paul, as the debates between Romney and Obama might establish a “none of the above” revulsion factor among many voters.
I currently don’t see any realistic chance for Santorum or Gingrich to get the GOP nomination, although that would be preferable, so perhaps it is time to examine the Ron Paul option among those not currently committed to him. He can’t be worse than these two choices and could be a good deal better.
