Romney has become a kind of Don Quixote caricature.
The “long shot” becomes even longer. Mitt had his chance in 2012, it was handed to him by both the Republican National Committee then, and he was GIVEN a clear opportunity to take the Presidential election, because of the issue handed to him by the Benghazi crisis.
Yet Mitt failed to take up that opportunity, by exposing the complete incompetence and unworthiness of the Current Occupant to continue to occupy the Oval Office. Simply because the Current Occupant was absent in those critical hours from the beginnings of the events on the eve of September 11, 2012, was proof enough that the call could come in at 3 AM, and nobody was there to answer the phone.
And worse, the reason given for the absence was to prepare to go on a fund-raising trip to California. How much more must the Current Occupant prove his unfitness for the job, than that response? And this is not even to shift the blame down to Herself, who had the authority already to call upon support from the US Department of Defense to extract the State Department officials.
If it did not matter then, it does not matter now.
Like it has for Jeb Bush, the ship has long since sailed.
“Romney has become a kind of Don Quixote caricature”
Yeah, making a fool out of himself. Reminds me of a spoiled adolescent girl stamping her foot and crying because she can’t have her way.
Perhaps he should be seen through new glasses. Pathetic candidate. BUT what if he had been elected? Would this country be where we are today: at the crossroads with a new wave of Constitutional warriors? Or would we still be slowly slipping into the abyss of socialism with American citizens never having opened their eyes? Many ‘folks’ hand not yet heard the alarm of Paul Revere.
Just as Trump is a blessing to our great America. In a fashion, Mittens and his losing might have also had a purpose.
Exactly.
