2. More and better chaos

The more time and money Romney has to spend trying to secure the nomination, the less of each he's going to have to rehabilitate his image in the general election. As it is, Mitt has already provided the fodder for a thousand or so opposition commercials. The Republicans are in big time trouble, and every dollar spent on the Romney/Santorum battle (or if you prefer, the Romney/Santorum/Gingrich three-way - I know I don't prefer that) means another dollar not available to Republicans in the general election.
