This makes me wonder, what happens if Romney, Bush and Christie all run for President? Those are all "serious," "establishment," "moderate" candidates who can raise money and probably run a competent campaign.
Could that be a reverse 2008 Republican primary scenario where the establishment field is so crowded that the right-wing candidate pulls it out? Rand Paul and Ted Cruz come to mind as potential beneficiaries if the party elite can't circle the wagons and decide on a single candidate.
The problem is that the "right wing" field is even more crowded than the establishment field. This could seriously end up being a fifteen-way primary. Time to invest in popcorn.
Pop Secret or Orval Red...?
