Mitt Romney's Nephew Running for Governor in Colorado
Washington Examiner ^ | 4/25 | Kyle Feldscher

Posted on 04/25/2017 10:03:56 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Mitt Romney's nephew is following his uncle into politics.

Doug Robinson, an investment banker, announced his intention to run for governor in Colorado in 2018 in a letter to Republican activists, the Denver Post reported Tuesday. Robinson has also purchased online campaign ads.

"The reason I'm running and the reason I'm the best candidate for the job is simple — I know how to get things done," Robinson wrote in the letter.

"I don't mean finding new ways to spend taxpayer dollars. I mean finding real solutions to the problems that face our state, not because it's my job but because it has to be done. I've done it before."

The other candidate is a relative of Bush II. The race will be Romney vs. Bush.

Politicians often speak in cheap, throwaway lines such as this. Heck, Barack Obama could say this. But we would not want a Barack Obama to implement his solutions to our problems.

Isn’t the present governor the “ChickenPooper”?
Isn’t he the anti-gun, pro-doper gay gov that hangs out in gay bath houses?
Even a Romney or a Bushie would be a dramatic improvement...LMAO.

Yup, how nice it must be to go through life where someone has paved the road from you. I find it increasingly difficult to have any respect whatsoever for these types.

If it’s last name is Romney, Bush or Kasich, it would never get my vote. As we saw with idiot Bush II, he followed Bush I as an ass.
