If he runs, he’ll win the nomination Mississippi style. The elites arranged for him to win by cheating last time.

You had your chance Mitt. You went vanilla on the 2nd and 3rd debate.

(Of course it didn’t help we had some with a case of the Mormon fears—so it made sense to give the Muslim a second term instead.)

First, in the intervening years since 2012 — and on a range of issues, not the least of which is Russia — Romney has been proven right.
Guess who else was right about Russia?

And Obamacare's death panels.

And Quantitative easing.

And Crony Capitalism.

Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

But no one in the political establishment wants to have anything to do with her. They'd rather cast their lot with a two-time loser.

Dude, you have been rejected twice. No is No. Beyond this, it’s just harassment. Jeeze, this is like the icky guy who just won’t STOP.

With their original RINO favorite, Christie, out over Bridgegate and Jeb not yet a sure thing, the liberal press is casting about big time for a new ‘electable’ RINO champion to shove down our throats.

No doubt the gay mainstream media would back him. It’s a win win for them. If he loses a democrat takes office and they win. And if he wins, same thing.

Here it comes, this guy may have sucked but he could not have sucked harder than OBAMA.

Well, she’s “stupid, washed-up” and not a serious person. Haven’t you heard?

“He would have to be utterly authentic,”

Although I said I signed an assault weapons ban, actually I did not.

Yes it was my signature on the check to Planned parenthood, but I have always been pro-life.

He has a high bar to clear.

Romney vs Warren in 2016, this would be a nightmare.

You have my sympathies. I didn’t send him any money. The last Republican presidential type I sent money to was Bush in 2004.

No.

Just ...

NO!

HELL NO!!!

The Republican Party can either nominate an actual conservative, or face defeat.

Again.

Moderates are losers.

The author of this article has no idea who Mitt Romney is nor does he have any idea what people think about him. It’s not that he appears to be goody goody, it’s that he’s goody goody towards the liberals and vicious and clawing to conservatives.

Where does this clown get the scrappy underdog garbage from? Lying, liberal, non-campaigning POS, yeah, that would fit Romney fine. But scrappy? Only against conservatives.

“Romney would similarly have to get real. No more phoniness. No more telling us what he thinks we want to hear. He would have to be utterly authentic, and he would have to show that losing caused him to encounter pain and reflection.”

No more phoniness? That will be the day. I can just hear him now. ‘Yes, I’m the Father of Gay Marriage in America. I invented Obamacare. I can be just as tyrannical and autocratic as Obama. I’ll enforce your right to murder your babies and it will be tax funded no religious exemptions. See my record in Massachusetts. I want to get guns out of your hands just as much as any other liberal. But remember while I’m giving all the welfare goodies to entire world crossing our borders, the increased taxes you’ll have to pay will now be called fees!’

Yeah, that’ll happen. /s
