I think Mitt Romney can't catch a break. He really would be a good candidate for the GOP, but he's Mormon, and that's a deal breaker for many Republicans. He's had plenty of experience as former Governor of Massachusetts and knows his in's and out's of legislation. Unfortunately, Romney has kept steady numbers in the polls at 23%, and hasn't gained a significant number of new supporters- even after the crash-and-burn of Herman Cain and Rick Perry.
What he has going for him: Mitt's a smart guy, and he'd be a competent president.
What's against him: He's not very electable because of his religion and stalemate progress in the polls.
Bottom line: Poor Mitt. I don't think he'll be the next GOP nominee because of his inability to have broad appeal to the mainstream Republican Party, even though he's reasonably competent (shocker!).
