The last two Republican candidates for president have been among the weakest GOP candidates in 50 years.
Barack Obama presented Mitt Romney with a gift in 2012: A struggling economy, sluggish growth, a paucity of jobs, and a health care law that was extremely unpopular.
In what should have been a landslide rejection of Obama's policies, Romney flubbed it big time and allowed his opponent to define him - and Republicans - in the most unlfattering way imaginable.
You would have hoped that Romney would have retired from the public arena and kept a low profile as other losers have done in the past. Instead, the last few months have seen the former presidential candidate raising his public profile considerably, while apparently courting big money donors which is generating speculation he may make another run in 2016.
And now, a new poll out of Iowa may put some fire in his belly.

Then Mittens will be a 3X LOSER!
Did he say he will not run a few days ago?
Romney shoulda worked 2x harder the first time.
New paper bags, same old dog doo.
He also said, “circumstances can change”.
Permission to add to your post.
No! No! No! No! No! No!
I would keep on going but I am sure you get it.
Romnegeddon...
Spare me.
Why can’t these LibTards simply retire and enjoy their wealth like a normal person?
And, this is the guy that wasn’t astute enough to realize just how bad the lyin’ king would be? Even after the first 4 years? In that case, he ain’t astute enough to be the (p)residnet. He failed to call the lyin’ king out for fear of being called a racis’, typical of all conservatives who just want to ship all black people back to africa. Right?
Did say that? Can you cite a source please! Thank-you!
If not him then who? I think Romney could fix the economy. I would vote for him because I dint see anyone else on the horizon. I love Cruz but I don’t know if he could win.
Madlai Romneyson.
No Willard, no Booooooosh, no RINO’s and no LSM selecting the candidates.
Not only does this demonstrate the Republicans are not serious about winning, they have no intention of returning this country to the economic, military and cultural powerhouse it once was.
And I still won't vote for either liberal.

Often left out from all of this analysis is the changing DEMOGRAPHICS of the American population and electorate. Fact is the Dems have won the popular vote in five of the last six presidential elections.
In 2012 MR won nearly 60% of the white vote, BHO won only about 39% of the white vote. If demographics factors had not changed so dramatically over the last several decades, MR’s share of the white vote alone would have been more than enough to guarantee him a Reagan or Nixon-like landslide victory.
James Carville famously stated it’s the economy, stupid. While the economy is still a major factor, one could now argue it’s the demographics, stupid.
Whoever wins the GOP nominates in 2016, fact remains the Dems have certain built in structural advantages, which allow them to dominate nearly all of the big states, except Texas. And given changing demographic factors in Texas, that state could soon turn blue, or at least purple in the near future.
Return to the scene of the crime!!??
