Almost overnight, former governors Mitt Romney of Massachusetts and Jeb Bush of Florida have transformed the 2016 GOP presidential campaign into a mad scramble for support and funding for a lengthy and hard-fought battle.

Where They Stand on 7 Key Issues
Liberal and liberal-er.
In left field, and not even in the game.
If its romney or bush say hello pres clinton. This idiocracy will vote for lady parts this time rather than skin color
Mad scramble?
It’s sad that the once great Republican party is reduced to this...
It isn't, Governor Romney gave America gay marriage and he was pro-abortion all of his life, only claiming to switch for the presidential campaigns, and then switching back to pro-abortion after winning the nomination.
How radical about promoting the homosexual agenda is Mitt Romney? He supported gay Scout leaders and homosexualizing the military, decades ago, he was way ahead of the curve.
""One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share.""
It depends on the audience.
Where they stand? How bout left of Pelosi.
Thay can stand on their heads.
I would rather give it to the Left who you know is out to destroy the country, rather than a back stabbing GOPe RINO.
Everybody form a circle... Put your left foot in, Your left foot out, Your left foot in, And shake it all about. You do the hokey pokey And turn yourself around.
Romney ran a dishonest campaign the first time. If he decides to be honest, he won’t have a chance int the primary. There is nothing about him I like because I do not trust him.
Bush is off on some key issues AND he is a Bush. No one wants another one.
None of the above.
And he also removed all of his computers so that the People would not be privy to his inside agenda. Hmm! Sounds a lot like loss info from the IRS. Romney and his Sweet wife are up to their eyeballs in the blood of the aborted innocent children here in Massachusetts.
He was the first to push the Homosexual agenda without the vote and or knowledge of the citizens of Massachusetts.
Romney is an evil POS! who has no right to again seek the office of the presidency.
As a woman, I reject even more, his sick blood thirsty whore of a wife who believes that only the elite deserve to live. You Mrs. Romney are a murderer. Go to Hell!
Romney, in addition to instituting “gay” “marriage,” permanently banning scary-looking guns, homosexualizing the public schools and state government, and signing socialized medicine, complete with taxpayer-funded abortions, into law, made millions from his ownership of Stericycle, which disposes of the broken corpses of little babies killed by the abortionists.
And Jeb Bush refused to do his sworn duty to keep Terri Schiavo from being judicially tortured to death.
Neither will ever get a vote from me or my family.
Here is Ann describing what suffering is like for the ultra rich, in this case the son of the CEO of American Motors and Mormon Royalty, at the Mormon university.
“They were not easy years. You have to understand, I was raised in a lovely neighborhood, as was Mitt, and at BYU, we moved into a $62-a-month basement apartment with a cement floor and lived there two years as students with no income. It was tiny. And I didn’t have money to carpet the floor. But you can get remnants, samples, so I glued them together, all different colors. It looked awful, but it was carpeting.
We were happy, studying hard. Neither one of us had a job, because Mitt had enough of an investment from stock that we could sell off a little at a time. The stock came from Mitt’s father. When he took over American Motors, the stock was worth nothing. But he invested Mitt’s birthday money year to year—it wasn’t much, a few thousand, but he put it into American Motors because he believed in himself. Five years later, stock that had been $6 a share was $96 and Mitt cashed it so we could live and pay for education.
Mitt and I walked to class together, shared housekeeping, had a lot of pasta and tuna fish and learned hard lessons.”
I couldn’t care less. No Jeb, No Mike, No Chris, No Mitt, No Paul, No vote.
Call me cynical but I don’t think Romney really wants to be president. In 2012 after that first debate he had the president reeling, but when he failed to bring up Benghazi in the second and third debates I sensed that he didn’t have the fire in the belly to be president, so why is he running again? Is it because he wants to deny Jeb Bush the nomination? There is supposedly a rivalry between Romney and the Bush family. If he and Christie run they split the establishment vote three ways with Jeb. Could it be he’s doing it to deny Jeb but not win, and lining up for a cabinet position in a Walker or Cruz administration? Who knows? Look, if the two of them and Christie knock each other or seriously leave the survivor of the three weakened against the conservatives in the field so much the better. Romney had his shot. If he had any fight in him he would be sitting in the Oval Office today but he didn’t then and it’s safe to say he doesn’t have it today. He has an ulterior motive for running but it’s not to get the nomination. We shall see.
Liberal and liberal-er.
Yup, and you can bet that their positions will evolve dozens of times in the next couple of years.
