(CNN)âSorry Mitt Romney fans: He's just not that in to running for president.
Fresh off a new Washington Post report that GOP establishment leaders are calling on Romney, who has run and lost twice before, to reconsider his decision to stay out of the 2016 race, associates of the 2012 Republican presidential nominee tell CNN there are a lot of "in bound" calls but that there are "no signs" he's changed his mind.
One friend of Romney's said there were some calls to Romney confidant Beth Meyers and others in his circle asking him to consider being a lifeline to the Republican Party and its chaotic primary fight...

Not only would Romney lose, he would enjoy being an honorable loser.
Romney is a lot of things that disqualify him to be President of the Republic but he is not so silly as to desire to become this generation’s Harold Stassen.
You mean like Dole? or McCain? or Romney last time around? or like Ford? or like Bush I? Lots of Gopes support losers and it is by design. They believe that the Democrat Party is the Narural ruling class in America.
Not going to happen Mitt.
Just go away and take Jeb with your sorry RINO ass.
They can get Bush III nominated. It does NOT depend on performance in the polls or in the primaries. It requires only that Bush not withdraw, and if he does withdraw they can still Nominate him under their current rules if no one else manages 8 outright majorities in the primaries. They will get a lot of help from Democrats here.
Not so much.
There's GOPe frustration with Jeb, but it sounds like the interest in Mitt is more of a media thing.
Familiar names -- Clinton, Bush -- attract attention of casual viewers and browsers and the media hopes it will generate more interest in what they offer.
C’mon Mitt...help save us LOL
Yeah. We showed him. We kicked him to the curb. Good for us. We are in excellent position. The United States was smart to have Romney lose.
