Mitt Romney's Run

He's raised more money than any other contender for the GOP presidential nomination, and still Mitt Romney trails John McCain and Rudy Giuliani by a fair piece in the national polls.

He's got the money and the hair and the track record of business success. Could he do it? His father tried and failed. His shifting positions and minority faith are a challenge.

This hour On Point: we get up to the minute with the dark horse presidential candidacy of Republican Mitt Romney.
