I think that if it were shown that he took advantage of the Swiss Bank Account amnesty that he would not receive the GOP nomination at the convention. Enough arm-twisting would make him step aside for “personal reasons.” ---

Well, then, who else they got? The runner up was Santorum. Are they gonna nominate him instead? ---

> [@ElvisL1ves](#): > > Well, then, who else they got? The runner up was Santorum. Are they gonna nominate him instead? I honestly believe that if photos turn up of Romney with santorum all over him in a porno movie with the family dog, Republicans will try to balls it out. ---

> [@Zakalwe](#): > > It’s just the break the McCain campaign has been waiting for! I wonder how a McCain/Palin repeat or a Santorum/Ron Paul ticket would do.
