Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee, refused Sunday to rule out becoming the nominee again this year at a brokered convention, though he insisted he couldnt imagine that happening.
I dont think anyone in our party should say, Oh no, even if the people of the party wanted me to be president, I would say no to it. No one is going to say that, Mr. Romney said on NBCs Meet the Press.

If they jam down Romney at the convention I will vote for Dave Brat only, no other Republican.
The GOPe branch of the Uniparty has their agenda for a Hillary victory.
Meanwhile, Obama has Loretta Lynch stalling and keeping Comey on a leash.
I will hold my nose, pray hard for forgiveness and vote for the Democrat. Romney is unacceptable!
NO! Just NO!!!
Cruz is an easy target for Hillary. Trump they fear. Unfortunately too many are purists to see that.
Of course. Yesterday Jeanine Pirro had great comments on backstabbing Mitt Romney.
That'll be a real time-saver at the convention, when no one asks him in the first place. Thanks LS.
Republicans really only have one choice, Trump or Romney. The GOP has subbed Mitt into the establishment lane and if they can just get to a brokered convention, it’s a slam dunk.
I voted for him in 2012 against Obama. I will not vote for him or any GOPe candidate in 2016. If they nominate Romney our Republican, RINO, Senator will go down with him. At this point I do not care. We are screwed either way.
If Romney pulled that off I would really feel the Bern.
Go away, loser. (and take McLame with you)
If Romney had fought this hard in 2012, he might have won.
Today, no.
These are DEMOCRAT OPERATIVES!!!! They are NOT Republicans! They WANT Hillary to win! The GOP needs a massive fumigation, Romney, McConnell, Rubio, Yeb! all these DEMOCRATS need to be kicked out of the party!
I agree!
And Darrell Issa was on Fox earlier and it’s all known he’s not a Trump guy. Ok. So they said “well if rubio drops out, will you back Cruz? AND he basically said that he’d just wait until the convention because the delegates would choose a more sensible outsider, LIKE RUBIO! HE was straight up about it.
Of the many surprises during the primaries, the biggest one is Romney becoming unhinged. My guess is that he fears Hillary is going to lose the election. Thus he has to do all he can to avert it - including lie and keep on lying to harm anybody who might defeat her. He should run on the Democratic ticket.
Folks I just DON’T KNOW how WE fix this!!! WE have the fighter we have been looking for, he is pulling crossover voters, and they are GOING to destroy him!!! I am at wits end I just don’t know ANYMORE what the hell we can do!!!
Romney, a proven loser.
“He could make Juan McCain his Vice President.”
Reminds me of, “We’re getting the band back together”. Unfortunately every member has dementia, can no longer play an instrument and can’t remember all the words to “Wipe Out”!
Time to just ride off into the sunset Mittster.
EODGUY
Right after Linda Grahm said to stop Trump the GOPe needed to back Cruz. They know Cruz has almost no chance of winning the nomination directly at this point (needs 64% to do so) All of a sudden Cruz wins a large number of delegates more then all data prior to Saturday said he would. This combined with the GOPe pushing Romney at a forced brokered convention makes one wonder if the GOPe is now backing Cruz pumping him up to deny both Cruz and Trump the nomination and instead install one of the Establishment.
Throwing one election wasn’t enough for him.
