Can Romney win the general election? I think he has a good shot. It's probably 50/50 at this point. We are still 11 months away, anything can happen.
What is crystal clear though is that Cain has no chance to win (if he ever had one) and that Gingrich is a long shot at most.
Gingrich may have the intelligence, but he has way too much baggage. Without getting into his lobbying activities, just the fact that he was cheating on his 2nd wife with his now 3rd wife, while he was driving the Clinton impeachment along (for adultery) gives endless fodder for negative stories/ads.

I agree with this assessment. At some point the GOP powers that be need to realize they should run the candidate that gives them the best chance to topple the other guy.
