It’s still going to be fun to watch Mittens cozy up to the very people who said he was a dog killer and a high school bully in 2012 all because they both take checks from the Cheap Labor Express.

If I lived in Utah, I’d have to break my rule and vote for whoever the democrat is. Couldn’t possibly be any worse than Romney.
Here in Oklahoma, that lying crook Markwayne Mullin won the U.S.House primary for our district. Four years ago, he pledged to only serve two terms, then, lo and behold, this past winter, he said “he’d have to pray about running for a third term”. Wouldn’t you know it, “God told him to run again”. Lying RINO.

I didn’t know that. I’m surprise Utah is ONLY 60% Mormon.

Ironically, I believe Salt Lake City is Roseanne Barr’s hometown.

“...at some point, we gotta start trusting Trump’s plans or ability to react as needed.”

I do trust Trump, but not Romney. His whole life has been about fulfilling his father’s presidential dream.

We don't want a Democrat majority in the Senate.

A Democrat will badmouth Trump all of the time and vote with him maybe 5% of the time.

Romney will badmouth Trump most of the time and vote with him maybe 75% of the time.

So Willard would be the lesser of two evils.

No surprise - Utah is run by the Mormon “church,” and Mormons do whatever they’re told, like little wind-up robots with no free will. That Mormon brainwashing Machine removes independent thought from 99.99 percent of brain cells.

So, we’ll have John McAsswipe 2.0 in the Senate. Count on the carpetbagging “bishop” to side with Democrats on most issues.

Count on him also to make sure sodomy is protected in all its satanic darkness.

Money and name recognition. Many people go to the polls without ever having familiarized themselves with the candidates’ platforms. Then, they get their ballot, and think, “Darn! I don’t know who any of these people are”. So they vote for the guy whose name they know. I’ve been guilty of that in the past, myself, when it comes to some of the smaller state offices.
On a happier note, Oklahoma citizens voted to legalize medical marijuana. I’m sad to know that it will increase recreational use, but happy for patients who truly benefit from it for medical problems.

The other guy probably wears magic undies, too; you can’t get a job as dog catcher in Utah unless you do.

There’s no way he would win. But don’t put it past Romney to repeat his treachery of 2016. He would have nothing to lose in one last shot at his life’s ambition.

The Mormon Mafia is strong, that’s for sure.

Disgusting and appalling. An actual Republican needs to run in the general to defeat this Deep State Socialist traitor.

That's the problem, we don't need a REPUBLICAN to run against him, we need a CONSERVATIVE. He is the consummate REPUBLICAN, The GOPe IS the problem.

Let’s hope he does a Jeff Flake and quits after one term to avoid the embarrassment of being voted out.

Whether Romeny wins or loses in November, the Utah seat is a Democrat pick up.

Let’s see...Romney would win caucuses or primaries in UT, MA, and RI. That’s it. Big furking deal. He won’t run.
