Mitt Romney plans to update supporters Friday about his plans for the 2016 campaign.
The Republican Party's 2012 nominee will host a conference call with supporters at 11 a.m. EST, according to an email from Romney obtained by The Associated Press. Romney will tell staff members about his plans a few minutes earlier.
The former governor of Massachusetts jumped back into the presidential discussion on Jan. 10, when he surprised a small group of former donors at a meeting in New York by telling them he was eyeing a third run for the White House.
In the days since, Romney has made calls to former fundraisers, staff and supporters, and given a few speeches in which he outlined his potential vision for another campaign. "I'm thinking about how I can help the country," he told hundreds of students Wednesday night at Mississippi State University.
"I've got great respect for Gov. Romney, and I busted my buns for him," said Chicago investor Craig Duchossois, whose wife contributed $250,000 to a pro-Romney super PAC while he collected tens of thousands more for Romney's last campaign. "But I have turned the page."
Romney also lost one of his most trusted political advisers on Thursday when David Kochel joined Bush's team. Kochel, who led Romney's campaign in Iowa in 2008 and 2012, is in now line to play a senior role in Bush's campaign should he run.

Best news I’ve heard so far today! Now, if we can get Jebbie to drop out.
Yep!
TED CRUZ 2016!!!!!!!
Conservatives need to settle on an alternative and start organizing.
He said he can’t beat Hillary so he’s out , LOL
Mitt please don’t get behind Governor Walker. You are bad luck.
Walker 2016
Too bad. He’d have split the RINO vote.
Of course if he suddenly sees Cruz surging, he’ll “reconsider.”
The Republican left has determined it is Jeb’s turn to exercise his political privilege. Mitt and Jeb would have split the unprincipled voters. But not to despair, The circus will go on.
He worked it out with Jeb to let him be on the top spot on the ticket. Jeb would pick him for VP.
Yes, he and Jebbie would have split the RINO vote, but, it was inevitable that one of them was going to drop out. The GOP Establishment is disciplined in that area; we Conservatives are not. We’ll have about a dozen of them run for the nomination and they’ll destroy each other for Hillary in the General Election if one of them should squeak out the nomination.
