Default Re: Republican Candidates

One problem is that Romney simply isn't exciting Republican moderates and fiscal conservatives, and that is his support center. Turnout has been very low across the country, allowing social conservatives (who are always motivated because the basis of their opinion is emotional) to have more impact than they would otherwise. I get the feeling Romney simply isn't the candidate "North East Republicans" wanted this year. If Christie, Daniels, or Ryan had run, I think you'd see a far different primary election.
