Only the real political junkies are paying much attention now but different folks start to get engaged in the presidential race at different times. At this point it is probably safe to say 80% of Americans do not even know who Romney is. As the waves of new people who are interested in the race start to roll in, the issue will come up anew with each new group. Falwell and other Christian's probably want to be very careful about what they say about Romney on the outside chance he ends up being the candidate. But I think their support for him will be non existant unless he makes some real headway.
