Hard core republicans are going to vote republican regardless. You think they will vote for Obama because Romney is Mormon??
You are not trying to appeal the far right republicans. That is the problem, republicans that get through the primaries these days are not appealing to the independents or moderates.
For pedigree, he was Governer and a very succesful business man. Very few long term Washington politicians get elected president because there is too much voting record to go off of. It is mainly Governors or very short term senators. You would have to go way back to find someone that was a long time Washington politician that got elected President.
He may not be able to beat Obama - but he is the only chance at beating him.

I would have agreed with you before I heard Hugh Hewitt say yesterday that he would vote for Obama before he voted for Ron Paul. (Due to Pauls weakness on defense). I'm not kidding! But yeah, in general you are right.

I think your point is correct. It is the moderates in the middle who will decide the next president. Romney easily appeals to more moderates than the other republicans. Will he pull more moderates than Obama? That is the question.
