If he gets the nomination those numbers will go up to 40-45 at least for a while.

I wouldn't buy Romney for the nomination because there is very little upside. You risk a lot to get a little if he gets the nomination.

If you think that Romney is going to get the nomination then you should buy Romney in the Presidential market because there is a much greater profit to be made than on the nomination market.

Not much point in buying Romney in the nomination market. You risk 70 for a small potential gain.
