Former Trump advisor: Romney thinking about getting in
Washington Examiner ^ | 8/23/2015 | Curt Mills

Colorful former Trump advisor Roger Stone thinks 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney is thinking about getting back in the presidential race. Stone tweeted his suspicion, and told CNN he had heard that Romney was considering a run from his sources.

The move could indicate Romney sees an opportunity to better confront and challenge front-runner Donald Trump. Some see current establishment standard bearer former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush as flailing. Trump has mocked Bush for being "just flat" on the campaign trail and Sunday called him a "low energy" candidate.

Romney publicly considered a third run as recently as January, but decided against it, after he lost most of his valuable donor base to Bush, and the massive prospective Republican field proved too unpredictable.

Why not? McCain and Dole are also available. And G. Bush Sr. is still eligible to run.

There was no enthusiasm for him when he threw his hat in the ring before. Does he honestly think that has changed in the last few months?

Jeb would drop because he’d lose all support from his big money donors, who are the only ones keeping him in the race so far.

The Cheap Labor express is getting desperate, they can’t sell us on ¡Yeb! or Rubberio or any of their other candidates, so they figure they’ll trot out severely conservative Mitt Romney.......

Romney's wife badgering him thinking about getting in

Won't hurt Trump. Will probably help him by sweeping away the politically correct candidates in the crowd.

Well that should solidify the Trump lead.

Trump would feel free to lay into Romney with both barrels if this happens and we all know how poorly Mitt fights back.

What an ego. No one wants Romney. Outside of Utah and the DC HQ, that is.

Absolutely.

Mr. RomneyCARE, imposer of gay marriage
and polygamy, and he who proposes
giving healthcare to Islamic terrorists,
IS BACK !!!!!!

Who better defines the lying, backstabbing,
treasonous, and unConstitutional GOP?
