Funny, reading the conservative responses from last night,(on other sites) there is no cohesion as it sits within the Republican party. The middle and strongest financially liked Romney a great deal. The ultra conservative(Tea Party types) loved Bachman. Response overall to Cain was that his weakness showed, Pawlenty wasn't who he said he was last Sunday, Santorum was weak in comparison to Bachman. Not much more than a meet and greet amongst the Obama bashers, and no one's mind seemed changed. I am not so sure that Mitt can get past the far right, Bachman or Santorum can't get to the middle, Cain, well not so sure that after last night the support for either side will be there, Paul was his normal wierd self. Pawlenty might be a VP type, but no threat to the rest, if last night's lack of venom is indicative of his performances to come. Good luck finding someone that they multi-faceted party can support as a whole, we didn't see it last night. Mitt is the front runner, and will remain so, and the tea party folks well feel left out if there isn't a strong far right VP to balance the party and the ticket. Mitt can still be painted as a Democrat's conservative, his record can't be hidden, not an easy sell to the far right.
