Saying "Romney is a formidable threat to win the Republican nomination" - which is what I have been saying for a year - is not the same thing as saying "I like Romney and want him to win".

There has not been a conservative alternative to Romney who entered the race without a trunkload of baggage.

The circular firing squad manned by the conservative base sure didn't help either. How many Freepers who bitched endlessly about Perry or Bachmann or Cain wouldn't give a quart of blood to have one of those three instead of Romney now?? Too late!!

In a nutshell, it's fine with me if you loathe Romney. But anyone who underestimates his appeal to a large segment of the GOP electorate is, basically, delusional.

I know you're not a Romney fan, and didn't mean to imply that, but the problem is this: If the GOP wants to be represented by a a pro-abortion, pro-sodomoy, pro-gun control candidate who pretends to be liberal/moderate or conservative depending on who he is standing in front of, then the GOP is apparently not the party for me.
