Romney won’t do anything that he is “promising” and is already hedging his bets. Newt isn’t perfect, but he knows where all of the skeletons are buried… which is what scares the Establishment the most about him.

That’s an opinion. My opinion is exactly opposite. So that’s a wash. Newt knowing where all of the skeletons are buried is not serious attribute for a presidential candidate. He’s not the only one who knows where the skeletons are buried and, furthermore, some of those skeletons may very well rise up and destroy him before it’s all over. The only problem that the “Establishment” (let’s pretend for the sake of the argument that Newt isn’t actually a part of the Establishment) has with Gingrich is that he’s an egotistical screw-up who embarrassed the party, becoming the first Speaker to be reprimanded and fined for ethics violations. And if you’re claiming that Gingrich is the most competent candidate then I submit that he should have been able to successfully negotiate the requirements for getting on the ballot in Virginia.
