Who's taking the GOP?

I think Mitt Romney is most likely to win the GOP primary this election. He is one of the least extreme of the candidates (i.e. not Rick Perry) and also appears fairly educated when on camera (i.e. not Michele Bachman), and follows Cain in the polls very closely. Now that more and more women are appearing as victims of sexual harassment as part of Cain's newly uncovered scandal, it is incredibly unlikely that Cain will have a major role in the primary from now on. Although Romney is Mormon, at least in our (Northern Virginia) community, Mormons are widely accepted and his faith should not be a serious issue in losing him votes. I have actually seen Mormon commercials recently that I assume are nationally broadcasted, in an effort to dispel any ideas that Mormons are highly unusual people, which they are not. Romney seems to be the GOP's strongest candidate at the moment.
