Some 2016 intrigue coming from The Washington Post’s Robert Costa, who reported on a meeting Mitt Romney had with the Weekly Standard’s William Kristol last Thursday on the possibility of running as a third party candidate. Kristol is part of a large swath of conservatives within the Republican Party, who are highly skeptical of presumptive nominee Donald Trump on a whole host of issues—the most obvious being that the billionaire magnate isn’t even a conservative Republican:

STOP with this garbage! These idiots are gonna make us experience an identity crisis.
Ok, so what can we call ourselves now? I swear they're doing this on purpose, trying to confuse younger voters.
These GOPe folks are really brilliant. Romney thought he could ignore 47% of the country, Jeb! thought he could win by deliberately losing the Republican base in every state (I guess he would have us surrounded). They remind me a bit of the senile, corrrupt, entitled and clueless leaders of the communist parties in eastern Europe before the system collapsed.
“... what can we call ourselves now...” Hello! We obviously are radical right wing terrorists/extremists clinging to our guns and bibles.
Oh, they GET it. They’d just rather have Hillary win so they won’t be exposed as the criminals they are. And so their tax-payer funded money pipeline can continue as these bas***ds sell us out to the globalists.
I hate hating, on a Sunday morning at that.
Romney is courting himself.
“the romney GOP caravan comes to pass and hillary becomes president becuase of it the GOP will be finished as a party and more hated than the rats at this point”
Yes, and that would also be the least of our problems. Make no mistake, Hildebeast would waste no time going after 1A and 2A. But you probably know that already.
The smarmy, wiseass Kristol is not a Conservative or, more accurately, one of the right wing in respect to a burgeoning central socialist government.
I’m already pissed at Romney for his anti-Trump speech. But if Romney runs 3rd party, then he show himself to be a total traitor.
LOL! Oh yeah, I forgot. “Bitter clingers!”
Remember, Romney has to get on the ballot in all the states. In California, that means petition, any Romney petition circulator I will tell, “ F And U “
Should Trump win against all anti-Trump Republicans, he should be able to rename his group to reflect the voters. The Republican party is pretty much a doddery group of vindictive old men who should be housed somewhere.
“Senile, corrupt, entitled and clueless...”
Right on, man. Or else the Bourbons or Romanovs (who never learned anything or forgot anything).
“Mitt Romney Is Being Courted To Consider Running As An Independent”
Well? The northeastern moderate and democrat slots have already been taken
and he cant fit in the open conservative slot.
All that’s left for him is moderate independent RINO.
Mitt pushed the sexualization of children very hard when he was Governor of Massachusetts.
The pervert he had developing curricula for grade schools was picked up by the Obama administration.
So the pervert crowd will be all in for Mitt.
I wonder if all these purist conservatives are gonna rally to the Mittens banner since it’s NeverTrump for them too.
Bill Kristol is lost in his armchair. Mitt Romney could easily become the poster boy for Political Idiot of the Century.
. . .if that. . .
Romney would get 16 votes. We can probably name them. He will wish for the popular support Lenora Fulani had in the 1980’s.
It will depend on which big donor is paying their bills.
