PoliticusUSA.com: Romney on the Run - Again - Maybe

There's a story by Sarah Jones, of PoliticusUSA.com, which is taking into account that the Washington Post notes the GOP is in a panic (that Trump or Carson make actually win the Republican nomination). Knowing this might mean a guaranteed win for either Bernie Sanders and/or HRC, the panic party bigwigs are choosing to draft Romney - instead.

Really hope they do!

[font size=5]In Desperate Effort To Stop The Crazy,
Republicans May Draft Mitt Romney
[/font]
[/center]

Sarah Jones is of the proper opine that Mitt is unfit to be POTUS; and moi is in total agreement (more about PoliticusUSA's stance against Romney, below). PoliticusUSA notes that;

Republicans are so desperate to stop the insanity that they are seriously considering drafting Mitt Romney to run against Trump and Carson. Philip Rucker and Robert Costa revealed in the Washington Post - that:

Less than three months before the kickoff Iowa caucuses, there is growing anxiety bordering on panic among Republican elites about the dominance and durability of Donald Trump and Ben Carson and widespread bewilderment over how to defeat them.

Party leaders and donors fear that nominating either man would have negative ramifications for the GOP ticket up and down the ballot, virtually ensuring a Hillary Rodham Clinton presidency and increasing the odds that the Senate falls into Democratic hands.

According to other Republicans, some in the party establishment are so desperate to change the dynamic that they are talking anew about drafting Romney — despite his insistence that he will not run again. Friends have mapped out a strategy for a late entry to pick up delegates and vie for the nomination in a convention fight, according to the Republicans who were briefed on the talks, though Romney has shown no indication of reviving his interest.


It's all Bull Chit, we all know Willard Mitt Romney wants to run and be President of the United States. After all, didn't he state he had a vision that he would ride a white horse inside the White House, one day.

Be that as it may, Sarah Jones does note that this looks good for the Democratic Party - either way.

POLITICUSUSA Notes that[/font]
[font size=4 color=navy] ROMNEY is a RACKETEER
[/font][/center]


Mitt Romney has a whole lot of baggage that he has to get rid of, if he wants to run again, in 2016. One item he has to make sure is silenced, is yours truly. For - believe or not - I'm a "retroactive" secret. Mitt Romney is a racketeer; and moi has sued him for that. Just because Mitt has gotten away, 'Scot Free', due to tyranny, cronyism and corruption, doesn't change the fact that he is a Bankruptcy Ring Racketeer.

Al Capone was beyond the law. No local police, state attorney general and/or federal agent/ agency - regular - was able to stop/ arrest Capone and Frank Nitti, from doing their organized crimes. That is until Eliot Ness came along, with his Untouchables, and they found a way to bring him down for Tax Evasion.

Hope apropos is that!

As the pic above, from the New Yorker article by Jeffrey Toobin notes, Romney's 2012 campaign stated he was "RETROACTIVELY RETIRED".

As noted by Toobin's article; [br]

Ed Gillespie, a senior adviser to Mitt Romney’s campaign, went on CNN yesterday to explain the circumstances surrounding the former governor’s departure from his position at Bain Capital. Gillespie settled the controversy by saying that Romney left Bain and went to work at the Salt Lake City Olympics in 1999 and then “retired retroactively” from Bain in 2002. This explanation has met with criticism and ridicule.


Mitt is dodging the organized crimes (retroactive secrets) of The Learning Company, Kay Bee, Stage Stores, Paul Traub, Marc Dreier, Tom Petters, eToys, Colm Connolly and yours truly; and PoliticusUSA.com had the story on it back, in 2012, titled;
[center] [font size=4]
"Meet the Man Battling Mitt Romney and Bain Capital for 12 Years"

I'm still battling him and I'm not quitting.

This is why we need Bernie Sanders
and Elizabeth Warren
in the White House!

How about you - are you quitting on arresting Wall Street Fraud?

on the highway. That animal was tortured. He didn't 'like it' as Mitt's son said. He suffered through it and was fortunate to live through it.

Mitt SUCKS just for his thoughtlessness toward those who have no power. Because that's the kind of prez he'd be - thoughtless. Callous. Unthinking, unfeeling.

No empathy.

But for the thousands of lives he ruined as a principal in Bain Capital. Crimes, Mitt! Gotta pay the piper for all those people who lost jobs and had their lives devastated because of your greed.

That's to keep a Republican out of the White House, and to hopefully gain back seats in the House and Senate, other wise this country will continue to be "crazyville".

No more Romney. No more Bush. No more Clinton.

Glad Biden stayed out of it because it was a No More Biden for me.

There are too many candidates already (15 left I believe) of which almost half are current or former governors (Jindal, Kaisch, Christie, Bush, Pataki, Gilmore, and Huckabee).

If Romney is out of the race - then he's doing his "retroactively" deeds in a hidden place.

He may be out of sight; but should never be out of mind.
