The Telegraph: "The question is no longer whether Mitt Romney loses the election. The really interesting conundrum is: what will happen to the Republican party when he does?"

The image that essentially sum up how MOST Americans feel about Mitt Romney.

Make no mistake, Romney is being lined up as the fall guy for this fiasco. And that in turn will create a round of internal bloodletting not seen since St Valentine's Day, 1929. 

Incredible as it may seem to most outside observers, Mitt Romney is actually what currently passes for a moderate in today’s Republican Party. Remember, this is a man who had to overcome front-runners including Newt Gingrich, who wanted to build a permanent colony on the moon; Herman Cain, who ran a campaign ad depicting a farmer being eaten alive by his own chickens, and Michelle Bachman, who said Hurricane Irene, which killed 26 people, was God’s way of getting the politicians' attention. 

Romney was sold – in the teeth of opposition from a significant section of the Republican grass roots – as the pragmatic choice, the compromise they had to make with ideology to secure victory. And when he loses, those activists are going to go as vengefully crazy as Cain’s Rhode Island Reds. 

Anyone who doubts the reaction of the GOP stalwarts to Romney’s impending defeat should bear in mind this single, if chilling, fact. Most of them still think he’s going to win. They genuinely believe the polls are fixed. They seriously think the surge in support for Obama is nothing more than an "MSM" conspiracy. Some of them clearly even believe the good Lord himself will appear in the spin room at the University of Denver next Wednesday. 

And when none of these things turn out to be true, the reaction will be truly terrible to behold. It will be like what happens inside one of those doomsday cults the morning after they all wake up and realize the world hasn’t ended after all. First the shock, then the denial, then finally the anger and retribution.

Okay I am not convinced that this guy is completely accurate in his assessment, but  I also do not think he is far off the mark.

What I DO know for sure is that I am going to make sure to have plenty of popcorn on had for this debacle. Because it is going to be epic!

P.S. By the way, for the few who may not know, the Telegraph is a British newspaper, so this is the assessment from the so-called foreign media. Aside from the fact that due to Romney's disastrous visit during the Olympics they think he is a twit, they really don't have a dog in this fight.
