Why does ANYONE with a brain think he can win? He couldn’t even win if Obama ran for a 3rd term. Romney is a disastrous incompetent. Guess he must really believe that White Horse prophecy. What a maroon.

Anything Joe Scarborough recommends bound to be the wrong advice. He’s another disappointment from that Class of 1994.

Talk of a draft will force Mitt to leave the country again, to live in France.

Mitt seems like a nice guy, unlike Obama, but I do not want him as a candidate again.
