He could, which would demonstrate his lack of conservative creds, since he has almost no chance of winning as the republican nominee, and zero chance as a third party. Any "real" 3d party from the conservative side guarantees 4 more years of Obama. A vote in that direction is a positive vote for Obama.

Two:
Who could the GOP select as a running mate for Romney (Gingrich, perhaps)?

I think there is too much bad blood for that.

Three:
What the hell happened to Palin? Wasn't she supposed to be the Tea Party's sort of stalking horse? Or, at least, a mover and shaker of the GOP right?
|
She was never a mover and shaker in the GOP (leadership). She has a vocal following in the electorate, but even though people think she's an idiot, I think she's smart enough to know she's out of her depth (or ability to withstand more literally insane scrutiny (I'm not a Palin fan, but it's clear that the amount of effort the press spent to investigate her was crazy compared to their weak efforts vs Obama (wither his state government records, law firm papers, transcripts?).
