Romney will be a nominee and there's nothing that can stop him. Sure, Newt and Rick can drag the fight until very end, but it won't change ultimate result.

Newt had not one, not two but at least four chances to unite anti-Romney forces around him and just keep failing. And now, after Florida, it's too late to rebuild again. It's too late for any new credible anti-Romney to emerge as well. Time is working for Mittens. Florida was the last chance to stop him.

Unless he's revealed as an axe-murderer, Romney wins by default.

Your lack of belief is troubling.

I REALLY wanted to believe

Sorry. Not buying. Even in this landslide, Romney lost base demographics: evangelicals and very conservative. He won FL on the backs of Rockefeller Republicans who migrated south. He didn't convince anybody. 

Sorry, show me next step where either Newt or Rick can possibly become a viable alternative to Mitt.

He is a paper tiger, but no one has the organization or cash to keep up with him.

And that's a whole point.

I am actually looking forward to Romney being the nominee as his policy proposals and agenda (and general robotness) are not going to be very popular. He's weak.

Newt is genuinely the stronger candidate.

And he just can't stop failing. Had he won in Florida as supposed to, Mitt would be a toast. Now it's just too late.

So yes, Romney is a weak candidate and paper tiger. But is there stronger paper tiger to stop him in time? Autodestructive Gingrich? A "Santorum"? Ron Paul? Well, lol.
