Joe Scarborough, the MSNBC host who has transformed into one of his generation's most preeminent Rockefeller Republicans, believes Mitt Romney should run for president again in 2016.

Speaking to about 300 guests at "a luxury resort in the Rocky Mountains" with other potential GOP presidential hopefuls like Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Scarborough reportedly urged the establishment donors and insiders to being a “Draft Romney” movement.

“This is the only person that can fill the stage,” Scarborough said at a summit hosted by Romney, according to a Washington Post report.

Anything Joe Scarborough recommends bound to be the wrong advice. He’s another disappointment from that Class of 1994.

Talk of a draft will force Mitt to leave the country again, to live in France.

Mitt seems like a nice guy, unlike Obama, but I do not want him as a candidate again.

Perhaps I’m a gluten for punishment, but I know in my heart that I would feel differently about America today if Romney had been elected. If it’s a choice between Hillary/Jeb Bush and Romney, I would vote for him again.
