Just for you I am posting Blue!
Your correcto. He was right in his policies. And we got who we are stuck with. Positive news, let me see, I accept. Negative, scandals, wrong choices, error in judgement, someone else is to blame.

Getting old people, his changing stories, did not know, looking into the situation, we all know what this means. He is so indecisive and changes his tune so often, you do not know when he is telling the truth from one off his many lies.

Comes off as indecisive and that is never good. Obama was and is a failure, media is too much of a wuss, to question him, for the real truth in the many scandals his administration faces.

He knew about ISIS damn it, who the hell is he kidding. He knew last year too.

If he runs, I wonder if the DNC and leftist media will come up with new reasons he's supposedly so awful, or if they'll just rehash the smear campaign from 2012...

If they do, would you vote for him?

At elite donor summit featuring 2016 GOP hopefuls, a longing for Romney to run again - The Washington Post
I didn't know that the Party "ran" anybody. I haven't heard if Romney has decided to run or not. I think it is all just speculation at this point.

Don't run a Progressive and stick a Conservative label on them like the last two republican presidential candidates. Or it will happen again. Not all Republicans are stupid.
You knew what to expect with Obama, but with McCain & Romney, no telling what those two progressives were going to do, since both of their campaigns were nothing but a lie, to fool the Conservatives to vote for them.... Didn't work out too well, did it.

I have to slightly disagree with you: first neither candidate were progressive, no, they were not conservative either, but they were middle of the road Republicans. And did we know what we would get when Obama ran the first time? Nope. I do agree we need to pay close attention to who we choose in 2016. it has to be someone that is certainly to the right of middle, but someone who can pull from both sides and the independents plus attract young voters.

If Romney was to run again as a candidate for the office of the presidency, I wonder what he would do differently this time?

Romney signed more gun control legislation as governor than Obama has as president.


Republicans need to find somebody else.

I agree, Republicans need to find someone else, but not for the reason you mention. There are times the executive signs something because he or she realizes it won't do any good not to sign it. Add to that, how many gun control bills have come to Pres. Obama's desk to be signed. Let it be known, I am a supporter of gun rights, my entire family (minus hubby) have been hunters as long as I can remember. I have 2 cousins who are or were forest rangers and loved hunting and fishing, I just don't think your argument holds much water.

Romney's going to run and he'll likely get the nomination. He's doing more public appearances and taking stances on big issues once more. He may have a shot at winning, because the Democrats will have to run the same campaign as last time, whereas he has a lot of talking points he can point to where he predicted the bad things that happened.

Not saying I like Romney, but from an objective standpoint, even with his personal stiffness and comments about the "other 47%" I think he'd stand the best shot of any GOP candidate to win a general election if the campaign took advantage of his debate talking points from last time that Obama made fun of, about Russia becoming a threat and trouble in the Middle East.

I see him doing what Palin did in 2012. He will lead the media along for quite a while, but will bow out at the end. I don't think anyone who has gone through the stress of a presidential campaign twice would want to attack it the third time.
