or end up with Romney. Better than losing the seat to a Democrat, but not much.
No, Mitt will ride to the rescue. Oh, crap! I guess you're right, we'll lose that seat regardless of who wins.
Are LDS voters going to support Romney against Trump?
Romney or a Dem...hmmm...Not sure about this one...If it’s a Dem Repukes will need a pick up somewhere to offset...but where? Minnesota might be a good target. I’d rather not see Mittens trashing Trump for the remainder of his term...
Gift to Mitt.
Somebody’s gotta replace McCain as Dem vote in a GOP seat.
Ugh. Having blowhard Romney able to get headlines at every turn is going to suck. Was hoping Hatch would stick around. We wont lose the seat to a Democrat but having Romney muck things up is going to be like having McCain all over again.
Losing it to th Dummycrats is better than lettering a Cuckold like Mittens gets it !
Mittens is a Soros employee with the sole goal of sabotaging Trumps agenda !
Cripes....here comes Mitt. This is not good.
assuming we keep the majority, need to elect a new President pro tempore. Maybe a younger guy and someone who wont even think about the 25th amendment.
Hatch is getting pretty old so you had to figure this was coming.
LDS members were ordered to support Hillary.
A couple of conservative LDS friends told me.
I was shocked they voted for Hillary.
Can we revive the dog scandal?
He’s likely to remain a leader of the establishment and the never Trump club.
Guessing if he runs for the Senate and wins, he also runs for President, against President Trump, in 2020.
Well, I guess that's right, Hatch is applying the brakes.
Yup....I’m sure he’s got more dog problems in the past:)
No - it’s an easy choice. We must retain the seat or kiss off any of Trump’s judicial picks. Romney is harmless - he has no greater ambitions. And he will vote for the judicial picks.
He’s ok - not my first choice, but far better than ANY Dem.
This forces us to remember that we didnt elect Trump God elected Trump and He has a plan. He will not abandon America. Mittens is an ass hole in the Mc Amnesty class we will just have to work around.
