Yup...the White Horse prophesy failed White Horse Prophecy [Mitt's Loss brings obvious conclusion that Mormon leaders falsely prophesied]
Perhaps disillusionment in Lds prophecy has set in.
From the article: Few of the policy ideas he promoted are even being discussed in Washington.
And please stay gone.
If he had attacked Obama half as hard as he attacked Gingrich he might have won.
I’m not so sure Romney got such a bad deal. San Diego is vastly preferable place to the never ending Byzantine political infighting and backstabbing and treachery in DC.
Romney is an incredibly talented person, if he returns to the business world, I think he could he make even more money than ever before.
This country is full of takers and fools. They could have elected a talented businessman interested in creating jobs and helping business. Instead they went with a community organizer promising bigger government and more handouts. Truly sick if you ask me.
I’m sorry America, you are done for, destined to follow the same path that lead all of the great European powers to their current state of irrelevancy. And if I hear just one one more time that America is still a “center-right” nation, I am going to vomit.
Conversely we saw Carter, Mondale, Gore, and Kerry constantly the month after they were officially defeated. And of course, none of their wives were disappointed after a year of working hard to win the presidency with their husbands.
This is so much poppycock...
I’ll bet Romney has some plans in the back of his head. The guy has been a go-getter for many years.
Even a normal every-day citizen has a real culture shock when they lose a prospective job, and they’ve generally only put in a few hours or days worth of work to get it.
I’m betting that more than a few of Romney’s plans do get placed in motion. The dumb ass in the White Hut is going to find out that even he can’t refuse to take measures Romney would have had to.
You know, I’m not that big a fan of Romney, but this isn’t about trashing Romney. It’s about trashing candidates perceived to be on the right in general. Libtards never stop trying to make people on the Right look bad.
“Perhaps disillusionment in Lds prophecy has set in.”
I doubt it. The Constitution just hangs by a thicker thread right now then previously thought. When it gets to be a really, really, really, really thin thread, that is when the magic will happen.
Etch-a-sketch has a lot of uses.
I liked how she came across, my gut feel she was not a Beeeotch like Moochelle or Hilda, and besides her wealth via Mitt, ia a better person than the spectre of that wealth would have some think. If my gut feel is right, she is a good person.
These are not tears of regret for what she didn't get.
She maybe crying for us as she get what a loss it is for the Nation. Or she is crying because she knows it was stolen....
I wasn’t a Romney fan, but he would have been night-and-day a better president than the one we are saddled with.
What is worse is the reasons he was defeated. The people have chosen interventionist government, handouts, and pessimism over putting the country back to work. The problem isn’t Obama, as many have rightly noted, its a country that thinks his is the right direction.
We are in trouble.
Romney wasn’t perfect by no means but his message was the right one and the direction he proposed was the right one.
So, the writer smirks because having been beaten in a race that he should have won handily, he has to take time to decompress and decide what to do next with his life. I would be doing the same, and so would most anyone.
Mitt Romney never had any loyalty to any state, it is fitting that once he had exploited local politics and moved onto national, that he would move to California.
I remember how the media brutalized HW Bush’s reputation by claiming that he would never actually live in Texas once he left the presidency.
> The defeated Republican nominee...
Obama vote fraud cheated Romney, not defeat him.
Let's pray that if this is true that the Romneys don't follow the path of so many other disillusioned Mormons and walk away from all things spiritual. Just because the LDS "Church" presents a false Christ and a false gospel doesn't mean that the real Gospel of Jesus Christ isn't true. It seems that Mormons have their minds so poisoned about Christianity that even when they realize Mormonism is wrong, they can't bring themselves to consider the message of the Gospel.
Even though I've always considered the Romney Family as political enemies, I would love to call any of them a brother or sister in faith in the true Jesus Christ. (Even if they don't change their political views - I have other brothers and sisters in the faith who are confused on politics.)
Sorry Mitt,
You were too good of a man for these times. Now a man has to be a lying, dirty double dealing, sorry MoFo to be in politics.
I am sure they are devastated, Romney was groomed for this and I am sure it is a great shock he lost.
They’ll get over this, play with grandkids and like most ‘also rans’, fad away.
None of us really give a damn what Romney is up to now. Thanks for the losing campaign, Loser. Thanks for destroying any conservative that stood in your way so we could actually win the election.
I’ve never read such a ridiculous and sophomoric news article.
The Times is quite literally “reporting” rumors in some cases and making up others. Then it just flat-out beats Romney with a stick putting into the article catch phrases that are totally unnecessary (his “CEO buddies...”).
This article shows that the Left is afraid that Romney will use his near-win to attack from outside of Washington. Something that he should consider.
Like him or not, he landed serious punches on Obama. A Romney untethered by Party could be beneficial.
Besides, Obama didn’t really win anything to brag about - what, his amazing economic and foreign policy plans got him re-elected??? C’mon. Even the vote count was awful close.
If Romney went on the attack and became a talking head (a la Palin) then he could really do some damage to an already fragile Administration.
Mitt...
Thanks for giving it the old college try, but it’s time to exit the stage now.
I started off this election not liking Romney. By the end, I really thought he’d make a decent president and would be able to try to bring people together to try to resolve our fiscal nightmare. I also saw what a decent person he is personally with all his charitable acts and giving. I guess we’ll never know what type of president he would be but I do think the better man lost the election.
Why would someone who is smart retreat to Califoria?
Most everybody else is trying to get out?
Issues Romney chose not to run on:
Abortion
Government spying
Soldiers rotting in prison for being mean to the enemy
Open borders
President is a Communist (so EASY to prove!)
Dodd-Frank
EPA’s plans for permanent depression
TSA groping
NDAA
President murdering American citizens
FAIR Tax
Abolish Dept. of Edumacation, Labor, Commerce, Interior, Energy, etc.
Fiat money/gold standard
Romney lost because he ran a poor campaign and was a poor candidate.
His comments about the 47% were simply stupid and inaccruate. CONSERVATIVES admit the economy is in the tank, job opportunities are compromised, businesses are not hiring and this jerk comes out and actually states he doesn’t want the votes of people who are forced into unemployment, food stamps and even welfare as result of the Obama generated recession? STUPID. INACCURATE.
At a time Americans who ARE working are concerned about KEEPING their jobs he says “I like to fire people.” DUMB and DUMBER.
Romney buys a 17 million dollar house near election time, and brags about how he will put another 5 + million into it to make it comfy.
Yeah, give the Democrats a bit MORE ammunition to bury your butt, Mitt!
