Political Wire: Is Romney fading?

Tom Jensen on Tegan Goddard's Political Wire explained why Mitt Romney hasn't surged. 

It's because as more GOP primary voters across the country have been exposed to him, the less they've liked him. 

The Public Policy Poll (PPP) has polled the Republican race at 13 places in October or November and again between January and March. 

In those places Romney's net favorability has dropped by an average of 15 points. 

Why does Romney lack political appeal?

1. He is a 1 percenter establishment Republican, not the kind of politico Tea Partiers support.
2. He is Mormon which makes evangelicals suspicious of him.
3. He is a stuffed shirt and pompous. 
4. He is a Wall Street venture capitalist, the type of person who got the country into the financial mess and the TARP 1 bailout. 
5. He has shifted his political positions over the years, which makes him suspect with GOP ideologues.
