Romney didn't want to run for president, son says

Unlike his nomination campaign, Romney ran his POTUS campaign like someone who didn’t want to win - it was weak and sad.

I made this comment in an election thread a few months ago:

John Kerry -- Theresa takes over the campaign, Kerry loses.
McCain -- Cindy takes over the campaign, McCain loses.
Gingrich -- Calista takes over the campaign, Gingrich loses in the primary.
Romney -- Tagg and Ann take over the campaign, Romney loses.

I sense a pattern -- when family think they know better than the professionals.

romney didn't want to be President but he did not want any Conservative influence to take root in the GOP... so he ran just to make certain that the CONSERVATIVE candidates would NOT win. romney stole the Iowa Caucus and then got caught and the result was reversed but by then... romney had the BIG MO. The GOP/e then controlled certain primaries in certain States that allow dims to cross over and vote in our primaries and then he conspired with party hack SoS’s in Missouri and Virginia to keep the two men that were beating him off of the ballot... and then he spent 10’s of millions of dollars in Florida destroying Newt... thereby protecting the control of the GOP by the elite progressive socialist cabal that romney is a part of. FU romney... you certainly ****ed us!

And besides, he knew you can't beat Santa Claus!......

Get you free OBAMAPHONE!

He had obama on the ropes and refused to take him down... he did the high road thing and that is how he lost. He did not want to win... his son is telling you this. Why would he say it if it were not true? Why would he admit that he and his mother talked romney into running if it never happened? I believed it when he refused to even mention Benghazi and he threw the last two debates without question. Maybe I am wrong but I do believe that romeny was part of the cabal that anointed obama for a second term.

I agree with you as my posts on this thread confirm.

So, mitt had to be forced by his wife to run for President! Can we call him PW’ed?

When Crowley ganged up on him and sided with Obama, he backed off and stayed hunkered down during the final debate which was on foreign policy. In coast-mode, Romney couldn't deliver a knock-out punch.

Crowley's kibitzing should have made him angry enough to ram Benghazi down Obama's throat at the next debate.

Still the only net difference between McPain and Romney was IN and NC. And we were told that Romney “could” win.

[redgolum]

Makes sense.

I thought he really wanted Obama in there for another four years. Hope my comment is not too “libertarian” for your discussion.

Romney didn’t want to run.

Not to worry, Tagg.

He didn’t run.

(More like a slow crawl.)

The feeling is mutual. Now go AWAY.

[Uncle Miltie]

“Romney didn’t want to run for president”

And it showed.

[upchuck]

On one hand you have a relative unknown. He’s a business man or something.

On the other, a man with a proved record of handing goodies out like every day is Christmas.

Now, what chu gonna do?

Herein lies the absolute biggest problem the GOP has. How can you compete with Santa Claus?

[Resettozero]

Third paragraph is true history. Would like to know if you’re on the mark also with paragraphs one and two.

[Pinkbell]

Right. That’s why he put so much effort into destroying his Republican counterparts. Yep.

[Terry Mross]

He DIDN’T run for president. He ran for the position of obama’s best friend.

[Theodore R.]

Romney didn’t have a single attack ad, did he? Even Albert Gore, Jr., had Willy Horton in 1988 against another MA governor.
