He’s creepy but in his defense he has run something before, is a hell of a businessman and is self made. The Mormon part is almost inexcusable however.
Simple, they don’t want a conservative President.
A Bad Lip Reading of Mittens Romney

"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"
"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"
"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"
"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"
"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"
Romney comes from a very wealthy family. His business was a vulture investment business, which was really based on aggressive buying and selling of productive businesses - not that there’s anything necessarily wrong with that, but it’s not like he was busy producing cars, say, and employing people. Saying he was a “businessman” promotes that idea, which was clearly the image he wanted to give, even though it wasn’t accurate.
The only person who wants Romney to run again is Romney, but unfortunately, he has enough money of his own to buy the slot again. I already receive about 3 emails a day from the Romney campaign, presumably based on GOP voter lists that he has bought, and this just started about a month ago. So you can see that he’s already opened his wallet.
I could give a flip about one's religion just as long as he doesn't try to make it mandatory for the rest of us. He has made statements about some of his beliefs and qualified them as his opinion but the organizations should be the ones to choose w/o government intervention. He also stated that his Romney Care was legal for a State, but it was un-Constitutional to impose such on a Nation. Call me crazy, but I found him preferable to Obama having a second term.
His Mormonism is irrelevant. His socialist zeal makes him effectively indistinguishable from Democrats. He would be a temporary improvement in foreign policy but even that must fade as the resources required to maintain a robust American foreign policy are leached away by Obomneycare and the EPA. Without a healthy economy America cannot defend itself against the other aspiring empires and caliphates in the world. Romney will not permit that healthy economy beyond allowing more drilling for and exportation of energy. That, too will decline in economic effectiveness as EPA and the dysfunctional healthcare and continuing inflation of transfer payments system erode the economic base of America. The Middle Class will not survive Romney/Bush/Christie and the Gopes much longer than it will survive the Democrats.
Yeah, I agree. He’s a good descent man who will surround himself with good people. Plus, who’s better? Another Senator? Maybe Perry or one of the other Governors out there, but Mitt still has my vote.
In politics he is useless, 22 years of running for office, a single win, and he left that single term in disgrace, unable to win reelection and with 34% approval.
He won a single election 12 years ago, that’s it.
