Ron Paul shouldn't even be close to Romney which just continues to show how poor Mitt Romney has run this Republican Nomination Process. He hasn't won any of the conservative states. That isn't expected but are those voters going to get behind Romney come the Presidential race or are they going to stay at home. We know Obama's support grew in 2008 and literally got any remaining Clinton support.
The same can't be said for Romney. That won't matter in states such as Georgia where Obama won't have a chance. But all those swing states, I suspect the majority will go to Obama simply because of the lack of Republican support.
