What states did he win last time? Add a chunk of his voters from them/purple states to the dems that will back Hillary in those states no matter what and they win those states. Add those states to the blue states and count the EVs.

We ARE talking about the nomination. Romney will get ZERO delegates from NH,FL,SC,AL,AR,LA,TX,OK,AZ,ID,ME,MI,OH,MO,VA as the deadlines are passed. It is too late for a Romney-type candidate to come in and sweep. ( source:https://ballotpedia.org/Important_dates_in_the_2016_presidential_race) The GOP-E itself is divided as to whether to go all-in with Rubio, back Christie or John Ellis Bush. They are NOT united, and even if they were, no one strategy is likely to get them a winning combination of delegates at the convention.
