    That way, Mitt could siphon off just enough votes to cost Trump the Election.

    Mitt could put some Real "TEETH" into this afternoon's vote.

    Mitt (and his people) need to start exploring ballot access.

    Sounds like a Plan.:salute:

    Is there a link to this?

    Mitt couldn't mount a horse, let alone get enough support to make a dent in anything. But keep the dream alive AJ

    Mittens needs to come out of the closet and switch to a Democrat officially since that’s what he really is.

    Mittens could jump in the Democrat race right now and do pretty well. So could Jeb Bush. How can you lose with shadow?

    Why? No person who voted for Trump would vote for Mittens.

    Mittens would be more likely to siphon off Democrat votes.

    Are you agree, I also think that Tulsi gabbard should run for a third party. More options for the people is never a bad thing. It might be bad for the party but the country isn't for the party it's for the people.

    Romney/Tulsi ticket. I'd vote for that if Bernie is the Dems choice.

    While I agree with him voting to convict that lying sack of excrement currently occupying the Oval Office, fact of the matter is Mittens Romney is the only Republican Presidential Candidate to have ever banned guns and hit gun owners with heavy fees and restrictions on what law abiding people do.

    So, no, he is not a viable Presidential candidate of either party and sure as hell not under the banner of the ReTrumpian Party..

    Is Romney a Russian asset like Gabbard?

    Then Mitt could be just like the Buffalo Bills. What is worse? Losing 4 consecutive presidential bids ‘08, ‘12, ‘16 and ‘20 or losing 4 consecutive Super Bowls?

    Sounds like the current talking points from the DNC have been issued: Run Mitt, run!

    Methinks I sense the smell of bitterness from the LW contingent of our fine establishment.

    I rather doubt Mitt would want to run third party.

    Nevertheless, I guess the correct response to the OP is:

    I don't see a link.

    Current Events threads should always have a link.

    Also, this is clearly an opinion.

    Opinion threads should not be allowed in Current Events.

    Follow the rules.

    Just sayin'. :salute: :flagus:

    The Mitt Romney presidential campaign of 2008 began on January 3, 2007, two days before Mitt Romney left office as governor of Massachusetts, when he filed to form an exploratory committee with the Federal Election Commission to run for President of the United States as a Republican in the 2008 election.

    The 2012 United States presidential election was the 57th quadrennial presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 6, 2012. The Democraticnominee, President Barack Obama, and his running mate, Vice President Joe Biden, were elected to a second term. They defeated the Republican ticket of businessman and former Governor Mitt Romney of Massachusetts and Representative Paul Ryan of Wisconsin.

    Mitt Romney     was considered a potential candidate for the office of President of the United States in 2016.[1] Romney was the 2012 Republican nominee for President of the United States.

    He didn’t run on 2016, so that’s not 4 in a row. And he likely isn’t running in 2020. So 2.

    Are you insinuating what I think you are? Are you really conceding that Trump will win the 2020 election if Mitt doesn’t run as an Independent?

    He would have to siphon less than 0.8% of the voters from 2016 to cost trump the election.

    I would definitely contribute to his campaign
