Prediction: The GOP is going to throw this election. And maybe they should. Most of them don't like Romney. Whether you like him or not he really is out of touch with most Americans. (Not that he's a bad person, he's just never experienced typical American life.) And I think the GOP status quo would prefer Chris Christie. If they hold back their support now (they being the party leaders) they can spend four years blaming Obama and get their pick in the next race.
If Romney wins, their outcome is not good.
Bad GOP Scenario 1: Romney wins, nobody is happy with him and he loses in 2016. Hillary is elected in a landslide.
Bad GOP Scenario 2: Romney wins two terms. They have eight years with a guy they don't like and can't fight against publicly.
Good GOP Scenario: Romney loses, they spend a relatively short four years with a guy they can throw stones at and the country grows weary of the Dems in power and elect a Repub.
The smart money is on the Elephant throwing the fight in the second round.
Stay tuned!
