Question of the week #2, Quarter 2: Mittens?

 Ah, Mitt Romney. The choice of the common-sense Republican; the bastion of moderate conservativism. Unfortunately, not all Republicans are common-sense, and moderate conservativism is not the strongest movement right of the aisle. If good ol' Mitten can beat out the extremists with his superior rhetorical skills (excepting gingrich) he does have a clear cut at the nomination and even the presidency; this is what I suspect will happen. The problem is, the others can curry far more support from the extreme right: that alone, if one candidate can consolidate it all, could be enough to turn the tide. We shall see.
