Rivals of Romney

Well, of course we know that Mitt Romney has very real rivals but what some may not know is how much of a threat they currently pose to his campaign. Though he was at the top of survey polls just weeks ago, this horse racing is a funny thing and so are people. Opinions can change in an instant. He is no longer Mr. Hotshot and must scramble to fight his opponents. The guy who used to have seemingly unlimited funds from PACs is now in trouble because of those beloved PACs. The article can be found here.

Political Action Committee's are a definite necessity to any candidate's campaign and right now the money is pouring in to all of these candidates and giving Romney's opponents a chance to stay in this race to being the republican nominee.

But even with all this, as the New York Times puts it:

"Still, Mr. Romney will himself enjoy the benefit of a well-financed super PAC in his own corner: Restore Our Future, which spent millions of dollars to attack Mr. Gingrich in Iowa and is preparing to spend even more in South Carolina and Florida."
