The last horse finally rides the "Anybody but Romney" momentum. He'll be in front for a week or two, then he'll say something that brings everything crashing back to earth. Republicans REALLY hate Mitt Romney.

The article also points out (unnecessarily), that this bodes well for President Obama.

If Santorum can keep his foot out of his mouth then I think he can beat Romney.

Republicans don't like Romney because he is too much like a Democrat. Newt reminds us too much of a bitter old woman.

I dunno. I still just don't see it happening.

From where I'm watching, Romney looks like the Republicans best bet in the Election. Gingrich will never, ever be President. I wouldn't say he reminds me of a bitter old woman, he leaves too many bitter women in his wake for that. From where I'm sitting Gingrich is a bit of a joke. One of those old guys you allow to make racist and sexist remarks because, "that's just how he is".

To me, it looks like the Reps are in the same boat the Dems were in back in '04. Staring down another 4 years of a guy they hate with absolutely no one to really put up a fight. Whoever comes out of the Primaries as the nominee will just be John Kerry 8 years later on the other side of the line.

Absolute truth. That's the way I've felt for the past year.

I feel the same way.

Republicans don't "hate" Romney, but they would prefer a more conservative alternative. They will settle on Romney and unite if he gets the nod.

ron paul 2012, the only hope

Republicans hate Ron Paul because he goes against everything that they stand for. He has always been for eliminating taxes and has been against the war. He may be a republican by name but he has the GOP shaking in their boots. Ron Paul would actually give the republicans the best chance of beating President Obama.

Dems don't exactly love him either. Eliminating taxes means eliminating their pet entitlement programs.
