not so sure
the religious right has a big base of people who aren't going to want to back down any time soon (these are mostly, sadly, the 6000-year-old-earth creationists)

This is true
But many, many voters in key demographics (young, black, latino) abhor Republican policies.
All they could achieve in the most recent election was to shore up their base, using the disgusting Sarah Palin - and that wasn't enough to carry them to White House
If the Republicans can find a leader who can bring back the voters that swung to the Democrat ticket in 2008 then it'll be a close one in 2012.

Granted
But what good is all that money if they continue spunk it up the wall by supporting the tired and unappealing neo-con party?
Having said that, were they even willing to put money up in the first place? The McCain camp took the option to have their campaign publicly funded, and made much reference to this in light of Obama's staggering fundraising.
Did they do this because it gave them a moral high ground? Or because a feasibility study (and it's not too much of a stretch to presume they carried one out) said they couldn't go toe to toe with Obama?
