Pfft, Romney isn't even a conservative. Or a liberal. He's whatever he thinks the voters want him to be.

Seriously, the man is the ultimate cynical political chameleon.

I saw a poll that showed if he decided to run against Russ Feingold, he'd lose by a good margin. If he can't win against one of the most outspokenly liberal members of congress, I can't see him winning a nat'l election.
