Don't Believe MITT ROMNEY



Mitt is a titan of Corporate America. Corporations LIE all the time to their employes.

That being said I think Mitt is stepping back to watch the other 15 clowns trash each other and then he will in his narcissistic way say SEE, I am the sane candidate and Jeb would be nothing but a Dynastic POTUS.

We have not heard the last of Mitt in regards to the office of POTUS.

for whatever moran the Repukes nominate, with hopes of running yet again in eight years. I agree, we haven't heard or seen the last of him.

They ought to go with a female VP, one who isn't robot-y or brains-falling-out-of-mouth like Palin...

He's waiting for the Brothers K to fall out of love for Bush the (much) Lesser. He wants first chair but ain't about to drop a billion of his on it. Now he just sits ready until Jeb either self-destructs or his past does his viability in. Make no mistake-if Jeb is out then Mitt is in.

His core group of donors have jumped ship to Jeb. He has no path to the required $1 billion. That's why he's done.

Only a candidate capable of raising $1 billion can win the GOP nomination. The only person in the GOP Kandidate Klown Kar capable of that with the donation network to do it is Jeb Bush.

It doesn't matter who the Kochs back at this point. They are limited in how much they can give to an individual candidate. So Jeb is the nominee regardless.

There's only a certain amount of Big Money out there, some of it is on our side, a lot of it is on their side...and a lot of the donors have an idea about who they want to back.

When too many of them glom on to one guy, he "owns" all the oxygen in the room. Everyone else struggles to breathe.

money and attention. He has to be the center of attention when Ann is not it.

They love him in Utah (and Idaho by default which is also known as northern Utah) cause he's a saint there, so if he can't be praised all over the US he can at least pretend out here in Mo'land.

Which brings up a question I keep forgetting to ask of the general population...

So if mormon males believe they will get their own planet when they die, is this all that far removed from the (can't remember how many) virgins that the jihadis think they will get when they are martyred?

Just asking...

great after life (to become "exalted&quot .

Most people don't know that those beautiful temples are only for Mormons who give at least 10% of their income to Mormonism, and that one is required to be interviewed by Bishop and Stake President every two years to earn the ID card required to enter the temples and participate in the secrets within.

Average Mormons are forbidden entrance into those temples.

Thinking he would be an embarrassment if he ran again because he's a perpetual loser. But I also think if he dwells on it long enough he will say "the hell with it, I'm running". So I won't count him out of the picture completely.
