That’s an excellent retort to Mike Lee’s ridiculous remark.
I doubt if Mike Lee expressed the same kind of misgivings about Mitt Romney when he became the 2012 presumptive nominee, even though Mitt’s record in office would make any progressive liberal blush with pride.
Did Mike say, “Mitt scares me”, or did he keep his head down and wait until it was politically safe to support him?
That aside, what on earth is the point of making such a tremulous statement, AFTER the door has closed on the possibility of anyone else becoming the nominee? Man up and go to war with the General you’ve got, Mike.
It’s a real shame too; I liked Mike Lee a lot. I guess the threat of Romney and the Bushes working to change the Utah primary system (through the state-level GOP) and organizing and financing a primary opponent to his re-election really got his attention...
