It's always been Santorum.  His negatives are social issues which Obama can use against him in the general, but if Romney were to try it he'd fall to single digits in the primaries.

As for the general, I think Santorum's far more populist than people give him credit for and can connect with swing voters.  I don't think it will enough to win, but he won't embarrass the party, compromise its conservative core, and set it back by delaying a stronger field in 2016.
