News by Political Insider: Romney's Right - Obama's Wrong - 2016 Run is..

Last edited Tue Dec 9, 2014, 06:13 PM - Edit history (1)

Haters gonna hate, ain'ters gonna ain't and wannabe POTUS runners are gonna run. Mitt the twit Moroney is running in 2016; and anyone who thinks (or wishes) to the contrary - can't claim they'll be surprised. See this Political Insider story titled -

"INCREDIBLE! Top Mitt Romney Insider Reveals MAJOR NEWS About 2016"


(my pic of Mitt's "retroactive" secrets during 2012 campaign run)

Mitt Romney held meetings with donors in New York this week that left one attendee convinced he is running for president again in 2016. A member of Romney’s inner circle who spoke to Business Insider said the former governor of Massachusetts traveled to New York City on Monday where he met with key financial backers of his past campaigns to lay the groundwork for a 2016 White House bid.

Everything Mitt Romney has been doing since 2012; is in preparation for 2016.



Everyone ignores insignificant parties such as I; because - hey - we're insignificant. Except for the fact that - when it comes to Pittens - I'm what you might call an expert (of his happenstances). Since 2008, when we defeated him early, yours truly has been warning all who would listen (very few) that Mitt Romney is hell bent on being President of the United States.

It's IN HIS DREAMS!

Nobody has been paying attention that the business icon hasn't been (visibly) doing his claim to fame (Bain) business. As a matter of fact, he's not even (purportedly) having anything to do with Bain anymore. Instead, Mitt has been running around the country, backing everyone from Senator, Governor and practically head janitor, who is running for election. This isn't because he's decided to be the GOP the kind and wonderous altruistic thunder funder boy for others. He doesn't have a magnanimous single cell in his blood thirsty body.

He's making deals, spinning his wheels, promising everyone that they will "get some"!

And, if you think Hillary is going to slam dunk him, just keep staying in that very same hibernation cave many progressives stayed in, during the mid terms. That worked really well - didn't it?!?!?!?

CSMONITOR: ROMNEY 2016 - Why it makes sense...

Truth be told, yours truly needs him to run; because Mitt stole our eToys and the more attention he gets - the more scrutiny his history gets. I'm firm in the belief that there's no stopping him. The gerrymandering and vote blocking program of the GOP's stole the Senate and their goal is the White House next.

Here's what the CS Monitor states;

The question is: Will the Republican Party maximize its chances by nominating its strongest candidate for the general election? Were he to run, Romney would have to be considered a top-tier candidate. He can raise a ton of money, he’s got gobs of national experience, his background is well-vetted, and his personal life is squeaky clean. Post-2012 polls have suggested a hint of buyer’s remorse among some Obama voters.



[br][hr][br]

No One Knows Mitt Like I Know Mitt

Everyone can give credit to who they want to for the information leaks and stories about Romney lying on his campaign finance form - and frankly - I really don't give much of a damn. It was funny to me that MJ cried foul about BG not giving them credit for Mitt falsities discoveries (REALLY). When, truth be told (even if they immediately tossed it into the trash upon reception) - all of them got the facts, many times, from yours truly.

But - all that counts - is Mitt Didn't Make It!

RIGHT!

My beef with Mitt, has to do with the presumption touted upon U.S. - as iterated (incorrectly) by CSMonitor;

[div style="display:inline; background-color:#E0F8F7;"]"his background is well-vetted, and his personal life is squeaky clean"

EAAANNNNTTTT! Ding Dong your babble don't belong - BOJO --- (or is it bozo).

Mitt is FAR from squeaky clean; and I can prove it. Even his own documentary states that "we kind of had to steal the nomination". Come 2016, he'll be a veteran at such stuff and have the mid-terms bonus toss of how to rig the process by having a small percentage (let's say just 3%) of the people being told - YOU CAN"T VOTE.

That 3% of Democrats being blocked, now makes the close race even close - or a slam dunk Mitt Win!




[br][hr][br]

Romney's coming and my little sign below, provided by "godlikeproductions" - isn't about what Romney's doing; it's about what Democrats aren't doing to stop him. Mitt is Richard Prior incarnate. A joke that "I wan't to buy your vote";

has turned into "I'M TAKING IT"

But no, they keep babbling about Rand Paul and Ted Cruz and shit. I think that's wishful thinking on the part of these DU'ers - hoping we can put a schlub candidate up against one of their batshit insane ones, and coast to victory.

It's going to be Mitt. It was always going to be Mitt.

And we should be doing (though it would hurt my case) - everything in the world to make him fail beforehand.

Once he begins his run - I fear there's NO stopping him.

He'll look at the polls leading up to the primaries to make a final decision. He is certainly laying the groundwork.

by hook or by crook in 2012 (hence Rove's public meltdown live on air about the Ohio result).

I also think the foreign policy milieu we see today was set up for a Repub presidency: the resurgence of terrorism in the ME and the sudden U-turn in relations with Russia.

But we've been through the whole neocon Bushcrap already, I doubt people want a retread or reboot of those disastrous years.

republicans really, truly, deeply, sincerely believe that Obama 2012 won because he's black. here and there you'll find a few that will candidly admit that running a man who didn't want to be president paired with a woman not qualified to be a 6th grade class president probably wasn't a good idea in '08. but they're certain that, had there just been a little less melanin in 2012, we'd have a president Romney right now.

And so, they're likely to try him again. They're not going to run a Paul, they won't let a lunatic like Bachman or Cain get near the nomination (their function is to rile up the base during the primary).

If I'm wrong, and it's not Romney... then we'll be seeing Paul Ryan again. remember this:


Yeah.

2016 is going to be re-runs.
