Republican Mitt Romney is to give an update to his supporters on Friday on whether he should run for president a third time in 2016 amid signs he has yet to convince some financial backers as to why he should take the plunge again.
A former staffer, who asked to remain unidentified, said a conference call with Romney was expected to be held at mid-morning on Friday, and that he might give a signal as to which way he was leaning.
Romney for the past three weeks has been seeking traction for another presidential run after he was defeated by Democratic President Barack Obama in 2012.
On Wednesday, he visited Mississippi State University in Starkville, Mississippi, and in a closely watched speech, he emphasized a commitment to tackle poverty in America, a correction from his 2012 candidacy when he was dragged down by his wealthy image.
Some of the people who raised money for Romney, seeing no dramatic change from 2012 as yet, are so far inclined to move on to other potential candidates like former Florida Governor Jeb Bush...

Well its a no thank God. Now if they can just smear Jeb in the first debate and get rid of him we can move on with the selection process.
“If Mitt is the nominee the media will gleefully join the Democrats in going full-throated Class Warfare on him. He’ll get squashed like a bug.”
you are right, as the MSM will never mention Chels’ 10 million dollar crash pad in Manhatten, nor Bill/Hill’s pies-de-terre in New York and Washington.
“FACT: In Massachusetts, the carpetbagger WRECKED the state.”
So, Diogenes, you believe that America was better off having BHO save us from romneycare? details please regarding how Mass. has been doing so much better under BHO?
“The day after the election, I didn’t feel Him there when I went to pray, and there was no one to blame but me.”
i think, perhaps, your sense of loss had something to do with who was victorious in 2012.
No.
God didn't remove His presence from me because of who won, which wouldn't make sense. He did it because I deliberately ignored His leading after repeatedly asking for it.
Romney has decided not to run.
so, you, diogenes and others on FR can now let out a sigh of relief, as it will be Jebbie vs Hillarious. And once Hillarious is crowned, hopefully, you won’t experience a similar detachment from God that you attributed to your 2012 vote for romney.
