I hope he does endorse her. It will get her zero more votes from democrats and increase his number of votes from pissed off republicans. It's a win, win.

But it might increase votes from "non-pissed off" Republicans, such as the former Kasich supporters (Kasich still gets 10-20% of the primary votes even after he dropped out). If it's a close race, every vote could make a difference, but we will have to see.

I've said it before. There is no difference between these "donor class" bought & paid for professional politicians, like Hillary & Romney. They will even work together to protect the corrupt "status quo" political elite.

Wow! Crooked Hillary Is Wooing Romney for Endorsement
This just proves that she is just another neoconservative hawk, they are all the same.

She is not as "brilliant" as people think she is. Does she really believe that Romney can get crossover votes? or independent voters? Delusional.

Nonsense and only wishful thinking on your part. Romney, by his actions has alienated nearly all Republicans at this point. It's one thing not to support someone and another to become a spoiler looking like a petty spoiled child. Republicans remember him as a loser who couldn't even beat Obama. Romney is now pretty much despised by nearly all Republicans, even those that would have supported Kasich, Cruz, and Rubio. If he does anything at all by supporting Hillary, it will be to give Trump more votes.

Not if they wish to make a difference in the election outcome.

Voting for Gary Johnson is, unfortunately, sending a message that no one hears. Like a tree falling in the forest. Of course, if he gets above 5%, or he makes a difference in a close contest, then I will eat crow.

I can agree with this. The pissed off Reps that could never vote for Trump will either stay home or vote third party. They will never vote for Romney or Hillary. Romney is despised by everyone but his immediate family and Bill Kristol.

A majority of GOP primary voters did not vote for Mr. Trump. There is a potential to pick off some here and there, and that might be enough in some contests.

Romney was the best GOP could offer. I mean, what the heck, Santorum was the runner-up, followed by Gingrich and Ron Paul. LOL. Hilarious. GOP would have lost even if it was someone other than Romney. Ditto for 2008. McCain, then Romney, then Huckabee and Ron Paul. See, GOP could not have put up a strong candidate even if they tried.

She is not as brilliant as her supporters think she is. THIS (Mitt Romney's help) is the proof

Bill Clinton is a brilliant politician, but even he can make fatal mistake (maybe getting too old? maybe getting too desperate)

"Bill Clinton dismissed presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump’s policies as “divisive” and ineffective at a Wednesday campaign event for his wife, Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton.

Speaking at Union County College, Bill Clinton also said “white, non-college-educated Americans” who are widely seen as a core part of Trump’s base “need to be brought along to the future.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/bill-clin...220229310.html

The whole "white, non-college-educated" argument is getting old. Down to earth people don't like snobs. It is all common sense stuff.

Are you done? One could say the exact same thing about Hillary who can't even put away an old white man socialist from Vermont? Not only that, but now she's virtually tied with Trump who you and others on the left perceive as a joke. What does that say about her?
