I just had a Keyzer Soze moment regarding Mitt Romney.

It involves him setting up a hidden video camera inside a Boca Raton fundraiser in front of wealthy donors....donors easily falling within a certain 53% of the population......

Mitt Romney ‘had no desire to run,’ son says
By Dylan Stableford, Yahoo! News | The Ticket – 23 hrs ago

Mitt Romney didn't want to be president, anyway.

That's what Tagg Romney, Mitt's oldest son, told the Boston Globe for its big post-mortem on his father's failed presidential bid published on Sunday.

“He wanted to be president less than anyone I’ve met in my life," Tagg Romney told the paper. "He had no desire to ... run. If he could have found someone else to take his place ... he would have been ecstatic to step aside.

If that was the case, I could see this Keyser Soze moment being perpetrated. Otherwise, my reaction is, "Yet, you ran anyway..."

attempt at a face-saving crock of poo ploy or the concept that the "church" made him do it are the only plausible options for offering any kind of credibility for his statement.

All the same, how disingenuous can one be to run for the highest office if one has no desire to fill the post? But it explains, entirely, why he had no plans for our future as a nation... because it would have been dictated to him as the handsome puppet, mouthpiece capable of using a pen that grover norquist asked for.
