After watching the RNC, I've come to the conclusion that the GOP operatives are looking past the 2012 election to 2016. Don't get me wrong, I think the party wants to win, but Mitt Romney is not their guy, he's not. If he were, the Republican National Convention would have been a Mittfest rather than a parade of rising stars. Rather than introducing Mitt Romney to the country, the planners decided it would be better to introduce the young talent in the Republican party to the country, most of whom are about as far right as you can get and represent the new face of the Tea Party base.
