Who will win the Republican nomination?

There is only one sure thing in elections - there are no absolutes. Elections have so many different facets depending on the candidate & their personality, their campaign strategy, the current issues of the time, & so on.

Will the Republican party be helped by the close race or hurt? What will the recent speech by Gingrich do for the race? And is Romney playing it too safe?

This has been one of the most interesting Republican races in a while. With the new RNC rules on delegates it's going to make the race similar to the Democratic race in '08. Down to the wire. This could help the party, as it helped Democrats in '08, or it could pull them apart. Republicans have done well in the past in coming across as "unified", they've done this better than Democrats in the past, but in the past years there has been lots of disharmony among the Republicans & infighting.

It's going to be very interesting!
