If Romney were forced out...would the 'pugs have an open convention? and who'd get their nom? [View all]

And who would be the most likely possible replacements?

Everybody the far Right was salivating about as a possible candidate went down in flames in the primaries.

Jeb B. has made too many announcements that he was gonna wait for 2016(and if he were to get drafted, it's almost certain that a large bloc of Romneyites would sit on their hands this fall out of vindictive spite).

And Caribou Barbie has essentially vanished.

so who are the most likely alternatives?
