Well this sounds about right: "Mitt Romney skipped the Southern Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, but he won a straw poll of likely 2012 presidential candidates there Saturday. The former Massachusetts governor came in first with 439 votes, one more than Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, followed by Sarah Palin with 330 and Newt Gingrich with 321." An unelectable Taxachusetts liberal gazillionaire, an unelectable libertarian extremist, an unelectable idiot teevee host and an unelectable chocolate-sucking amoral has-been ... it's the cream of the crop, Republican-style!
