Mitt Romney met privately with William Kristol, who is leading the effort to draft an independent candidate
In spite of his insistence that he will not run, Mitt Romney is being courted this week by a leading conservative commentator to reconsider and jump into the volatile 2016 presidential race as an independent candidate.
William Kristol, the longtime editor of the Weekly Standard magazine and a leading voice on the right, met privately with the 2012 nominee on Thursday afternoon to discuss the possibility of launching an independent bid, potentially with Romney as its standard-bearer.
“He came pretty close to being elected president, so I thought he may consider doing it, especially since he has been very forthright in explaining why Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton should not be president of the United States,” Kristol said in a phone interview Friday, during which he confirmed that he and Romney had a “little meeting in Washington.”

“No third party is going to win”
Winning isn’t Kristols aim. His aim is to split the GOP vote so Hillary will be elected
“Catch Laura Ingraham’s podcast, 05.06.2016. She literally buries Kristol.”
In spite of all the evidence to the contrary, they must still believe they can salvage their dynasty. It’s way too late for that. Treating their base like second class citizens was a fatal flaw. They thought their seat of power was guaranteed. Today, they are old and past redemption... they are done!
Myth Romney- the legend in his own mind....
Don’t ask me why they LOOOOVE Hillary but I think it has to do with her money-laundering capabilities!!!
