Romney endorses Ryan to run for speaker
Boston Herald ^ | October 10, 2015 | Chris Cassidy and Matt Stout

Under mounting pressure, U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan emerged as the reluctant would-be savior of the fractious Republican House caucus yesterday, even being urged by 2012 GOP ticket-mate Mitt Romney to run for speaker.

“I wouldn’t presume to tell Paul what to do, but I do know that he is a man of ideas who is driven to see them applied for the public good,” Romney said in a statement yesterday. “Every politician tries to convince people that they are that kind of leader; almost none are — Paul is.”

Romney’s glowing endorsement of his former running mate came after the two spoke by phone.

“Paul has a driving passion to get America back on a path of growth and opportunity,” Romney added. “With Paul, it’s not just words, it’s in his heart and soul.”

Note to Mitt: we don’t call him Reprehensible Ryan for nothing.

He speaks with a forked tongue, and pulls his ideas out of his @$$.

Wrong guy for the times. Go back to your New England lobster tail, Mitt, and leave it to We the People.

Romney ought to return to the cave he has inhabited the last 4 years. He isn’t the Republican leader and while I’m not sure who is, it sure as hel# isn’t him.
