Mitt Romney: "My time has come and gone."

Am I running? What, are you an idiot?
Courtesy of TPM:  

Mitt Romney on Sunday inevitably denied any plans to run for president in 2016. 

"I’ve spoken on this topic so many times, I don’t have anything new to add," he said on "Fox News Sunday." "I’m not running, and I’m not planning on running."

Fox host Chris Wallace quizzed Romney, and asked him if circumstances could actually change. 

"Chris, I’m not going to add to the story. I’ve had nothing new for you," Romney responded. "My time has come and gone."

After 2012's debacle would think that this declaration would be a no brainer for Romney. And I actually believe that Romney is being honest.

However that has not stopped the pundits from proclaiming that Romney is certain to run in 2016.

This from Pat Buchanan yesterday on The McLaughlin Group: 

"There is no doubt Jeb Bush, Chris Christie and Mitt Romney are in the establishment category or bracket that are headed for the finals," Buchanan said. "I think Mitt would come out first but I really don't see Bush as really having the drive or inner drive. And I think, then you get Mitt Romney against someone like a Cruz, or someone like that, and I think that would be the finals. And I think that Mitt has got it in his heart to do this thing." 

"The only cure for presidential fever is embalming fluid. I think he's going to run," Buchanan said to host John McLaughlin. 

I think that another Romney presidential bid would reek of desperation.

However considering the motley crew of misfits currently leading the pack of GOP hopefuls, I think the word desperation might be an understatement.

    Mittens, which moment would you care to remind us, if you think there's a 3rd run in you?

    Yeah, car elevator Dad, think maybe you could have taken a better vehicle and not strapped Shamus to the roof?

    Or, shall we juggle your time and troubles at Bain Capital with your flippant remarks about the 47%? Hmmmm, odd, very, odd wasn't your running mate, what's his name, a social security moocher? And, now that he is the beneficiary of more tax dollars, why hasn't he paid back the dollars he thinks no American should receive?

    Mitt has lied before. He wants the gop to beg him to run one more time. In the end he will swoop in as a white knight since the riders in the gop clown car are so pathetic.

    The repubs have no one. Christie? Give me a break! Awful doesn't describe what he would be as a POTUS. Mittens the loser. Sorry. Even the repubs know Croose and Paul are unelectable.
    Jeb has the least stink, except for his last name and position on immigration.

    Of course he's not going to run, he's used to having everything handed to him and he learned that the powers that be could not and cannot hand him the presidency in spite of their promises.

    Mitt Romney never had to work to achieve anything in his life and he's too old to learn how now. So is that idiot wife of his.

      Hey now, Mitt knows what it is to struggle! Why, there was that one time when he actually had to live in an APARTMENT and sell off stocks for a couple of months in order to make ends meet before he got his first management position! (True story!)

    Texas take this: you 'gave' us Dubya, a contingent of Congressional morons, the Cruz and Perry wannabees. It's only fair that Louis Gohmert have a seat in the clown car to represent how serious the rest of us should consider allowing Texas to secede from the union.

      Seriously, why don't the GOP and tea baggers just cut out the middle men and run the two Koch brothers instead? They already own all the candidates, all the party, all its agendas and platforms, and all its legislative proposals.

    C'mon Mitt, run.

    Third time's a charm. (Or is that 3 strikes and yer outta here!)

    Annie has yet to wear her custom-made Harry Winston Tiara with her $50,000 Valentino Inaugural Gown and $20,000 Jimmy Choo heels, in public anyways. You've already paid for them, might as well give it another try.

    Go ahead and choose Palin as your running mate. Just be sure Annie earns her horsie money by watching your back, and your food, and every moment you sleep... ha ha ha ha

  10. He's not running in 2016 because HRC is unbeatable. He's keeping his powder dry for 2024 or perhaps 2032 if Hill's VP wins a full 2 terms. Mittens is nothing if not patient. The profits say he's destined to be president and who are we to question Mitten's profits?

    Sarah Palin posted a Happy Birthday comment to Todd on her Facebook page. The retard can only find one picture of the Palin family together and you can't even see pimp daddy Todd's face. Pimp daddy's head is facing another direction.

    If he isn't thinking about running, why is he doing interviews like this one? Shouldn't he be declining all press requests and spending his time painting or something?

    Yes, poor deluded rich boy Mittens is going to run again, and he is going to lose again. Who does he think that he is fooling? We didn't buy his load of carp the last time and we sure as heck aren't going to change our minds about that loser.

    It's not your time, and it never was. It's time to sit down and shut up.

    I can see Ann calling her interior decorators and planning an indoor therapy horse riding corral in the White House as they stroll the cemetery in Virginia converting all those dead soldiers to Mormonism. Just like I can envision Governor Krispie Creme installing triple wide bathtubs so he and Mary Pat can soak together.

    Proceed, Mitt,,,,,,, bwaaaahaaaaa!

    Romney may be rich, but he is incredibly stupid about life in general. As for the other 6, they are as stupid as Romney and a sad lot for the GOP.
