What Worries Romney Backers

Politico: "Mitt Romney has done the unthinkable: silenced the legions of conservatives who saw him as too starched, too ideologically wobbly and too Richie Rich to win. Now comes the hard part: getting those same conservatives not to pop off as he moves to confront a half-dozen very Mitt-specific political dangers -- the ones top Republican officials say he must navigate to unite the party and attract skeptical conservatives and independents this summer."

"Their calculus: President Obama's campaign is threatened most by events he can't control: a European financial catastrophe, an Israeli attack on Iran that could goose gas prices, economic stagnation. Romney's campaign is threatened most by the man himself. And that's pretty scary to GOP insiders, at a moment when they're sensing they could win this thing."
