Romney on 2016 Run: ‘Circumstances Can Change’ [Don't ZOT the messenger!]
Mediaite ^ | August 26, 2014 6:50pm | Eddy Scarry (Really!)

Former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney has denied he’s not going to make a third bid for the White House but on Tuesday he left open a very small window.

“I know you’re going to press, but you know, this is something we gave a lot of thought to when early on I decided we’re not going to be running this time,” Romney said in an interview with Hugh Hewitt. “And again, we said look, I had the chance of running. I didn’t win. Someone else has a better chance than I do. And that’s what we believe, and that’s why I’m not running. And you know, circumstances can change, but I’m just not going to let my head go there.” .... (italics & blue mine)

Romney’s former running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) recently said he hopes Romney will run again.

George Romney was BFF with Saul Alinsky...and that explains a lot about Mittster.

I have no doubt Mitt wants another at bat. Hopefully someone will talk him out of it.

Romney will push out all conservatives just like
every year before.
The GOP STILL, to this hour, supports RomneyCARE
by any name.

Scott Walker

Mike Pence
Sarah Palin
Bobby Jindal
John Kasich
Mitch Daniels


I'm not endorsing all of these folks, just saying they are ALL paper-ready "qualified" candidates, nd ALL would be better than 1 term-Romney.

Romney versus Clinton, the first election between the two “don’t you wish you voted for me last time?” candidates.

Oh, dear! The candidate

at the top of a republican ticket can never win the populace once they’re been shown as being a democratic liberal.

A simple search will bring up pictures of George Romney yucking it up with Saul Alinsky, who dedicated his own book to Lucifer. George Romney was a liberal who advised the GOP to listen to Alinsky; he walked out of the 1964 GOP convention in protest of Barry Goldwater’s conservatism.

The nut didn’t fall far from the tree with the son. Mitt has always been pro-abortion and pro-queer. In spring of 2012 he said that two people of the same sex who “love each other” should be able to adopt children.

If that’s what you consider an acceptable, capable candidate, I’m sorry for you.

Nah. The Establishment GOP is desperate.

First Christie flopped.

Then “Jeb” flopped.

McCain is too old.

Their last ace in the hole is to re-run this old jerk along with his comical and stupid side-kick - Ryan. You know, the guy lost a debate with BIDEN!!!

And if all else fails, and they can’t get another RINO nominated, they will pull a Nelson Rockefeller-Keating_Javits maneuver, stab their own guy in the back and help put Hillary in office.

The only thing worse than a Democrat is a RINO.

"Welcome to FR, we DO NOT support Mitt Romney!!"

Welcome to TinyOwl. Nor does he.

I asked twice not to be shot. Hell, I had my hands in the air with my back to you yelling 'Don't Shoot!. I'm just Paul Revere, shouting 'The Mittish Are Coming!!!' ... Is my screen name Mike Brown or something?

Don't taze me, JSDude.

read between the lines... in other words, IF the charges stick against Rick Perry, Romney may feel he has to run or will be pressured to by the establishment.

About the same. One liberal pushing the liberal agenda is about the same as any liberal pushing the liberal agenda.

Former democrat, and current liberal establishment republican Rick Perry won't have any problem with the charges.

He will have problems getting conservatives to vote for him, though.
