The Romney people are saying another run is unlikely.

And there's this:

....Romney appeared in Cleveland with McCain yesterday and will leave Friday on a five-day, multi-state tour to “rally support for John McCain and Sarah Palin around the country,” Fehrnstrom said....

Romney and his wife, Ann, have personally shelled out $70,000 to the McCain-Palin ticket and the Republican National Committee’s Victory Fund....

Romney officials downplayed recent reports of tension between the Romney and McCain camps. Fehrnstrom pointed out that Romney and his vast fund-raising team have raised $20 million for the McCain-Palin ticket.

RNC spokeswoman Blair Latoff said, “Gov. Romney continues to be a tremendous asset to the Republican Party . . . and continues to be one of the most widely respected spokesmen for Sen. McCain and how a McCain-Palin presidency will strengthen and bolster the nation’s economy.”

Wow. It's interesting to see what lemmings the freepers can be --- so easily baited by the MSM into the divide and conquer trap.

“Gov. Romney had his shot at the White House, and he lost fair and square,” Romney spokesman Eric Fehrnstrom said. “That opportunity is unlikely to come along again. Gov. Romney is pouring all his energy into electing McCain-Palin and other Republicans, and that has been his single focus since leaving the presidential race.”

When your Marxist squirrel is elected, you can come and get a hand-full of arugula ... I’ll personally handle the transfer for you, barackanista.

Take your ad hominems back to DU, Obama, and your Master.
They do not belong on any sentient forum.

And by the way, "heroes for America" put McCain on the ticket.

Isn’t it amazing that there are some who still say MR is pro-life.
He is as pro-life as I am 5’8”.

Romney received the highest percentage of votes of those who identified themselves as "strongly conservative."

We got McCain as our nominee because independents and democrats were allowed to vote in some of our primaries and people like Huckabee split the conservative vote with Mitt ushering in McCain who scooped up a majority of the moderate Republicans, indies and dems.

And Romney is NOT McCain. They diasagree on global warming, keeping Gitmo open, federal funding for embryonic stem cell research, a marriage amendment, drilling in ANWR etc. Romney's positions align much more with Palin's.

The following year, Romney died of a heart attack at the age of eighty-eight while he was exercising on his treadmill...

Now THAT's a bummer!

He was the first to see the economic mess coming that we are in now and the first to discuss economic competition between the U.S. and Asia.

What's HIS 'plan' to get us out of this MESS we are supposed to be in?

So, in your world, every person who has ever been soft on the pro-life issue should never change their mind and become pro-life.

Well...

No one who has been in the CHURCH since dirt was invented - one who held various positions of responsibiltiy in the CHURCH in his life - not one whose CHURCH has ALWAYS been against abortion - not one who wants folks think that his CHURCH is the most ACCURATE and ONLY one that has the 'keys to the kingdom'.

To assist in getting this economy rolling again and for coming up with some type of reforms so this will never happen again.

Uh...

Just what KIND of 'reforms' does he advocate?

And that includes keeping taxes low.

But we have BILLS coming due and payments to make.

We MUST have more money coming in, for NO ONE has said Sh!+ about CUTTING SPENDING!
