OK, I know no one wants Mitt, but this fascinates me. So can we focus on the WHY?

1) Is it because he was proven "right" regarding Russia and the debate issue with Zero?

2) Is it because no other GOP candidate has emerged (yet) to be a credible threat?

3) Buyer's remorse?

4) A combination of both?

Ugh....and this: “Take Romney out of the equation, and the poll indicates Huckabee – at 13% is on top of the crowded list of potential candidates. He’s followed by Christie at 11%, Perry at 9% Paul at 7%, Santorum and Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the 2012 GOP vice presidential nominee, each at 6% and Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida at 5%. The remaining potential candidates tested were all in the lower single digits.”

If these guys are the choices, we’re getting Hillary. What in the hell is it goign to take for people to wake up???

Absolutely.

The GOP stands for RomneyCARE and RomneyCARE.

If it comes down to Romney vs. Hillary, then hand the election to Hillary and just shoot me now.

Isn’t he always on top?

I mean, I always thought Mormons were pretty traditional about those things...

Is it because the media is pushing a meme?

The same people who “don’t know anybody who voted for Nixon”?

Because Romney couldn’t fight his way out of a paper bag.
I put $$$ into his campaign assuming he knew what he was doing.

Clearly he didn’t as his lame campaign was only slightly better than McCain’s.

Did you notice that Cruz was not included in the poll?

Yeah, let’s nominate Mittens again. After all, he has proven that he’s “electable.”

This is a win-win for the left and the gope, either they get Romney, or more likely, they give him top influence in the party politics and make him the top endorser of the primary.

It props up the most far left candidate of the GOP ever, so far left that he is barely beaten out by only a couple or a few democratic presidential nominees, the elder statesman of the current GOP.

NOOOOOoooooooooo!

Personally, I think the Dems want him to get his little egocentric wealthy self out there and run again, because they know that no matter who or what they run against him, that person or thing would win.

Poll is Iowa Republicans, NOT likely Iowa Republican caucus goers.

It is 2014, and Romney garnered all of 35%. If he was in a list with 10 or more other candidates, his name recognition catches the non-Caucus going Republican.

This poll is meaningless. Check back in a YEAR with a Caucus-goers only poll and 6 or fewer candidates.

Very nice of all of the leftist news outlets to tell us who should be our candidate.

Because he’s pro gay, and the gay MSM hasn’t found anyone they like better to push for the GOP nomination.
