Hopefully, he will take Meghans advice to heart and just say, No, to running for a third time. Even Peggy Noonan at the Wall Street Journal has chimed in, advising Mitt to stay out of the race. Come on Mitt, do you really want to be remembered as a 21st century Eugene V. Debs? At least Debs was a populist; his concern was for the people. Romney is , and always will be, part of the oligarchy. Do us all a favor, Mitt (including your family) and just quietly go away.

while there is always going to be some ego with anyone who would even seriously run for the office there is usually some strong position and belief on issues and what they feel like they can do for the country.
and this could be anyone from left to right. newt gingrich of course has an ego but we can all agree he believes in some shitty things that he thinks is how the country should be.
but with romney it's just about him wanting to be president because that's what he wants and deserves . he has lived a privileged life without ever really giving back .

In an interview with North Carolina radio host Bill Lumaye on Wednesday, Mitt Romney's son Tagg said that he wanted to "rush down to the debate stage and take a swing at" President Barack Obama during last night's presidential debate at Hofstra University.
Lumaye asked Tagg Romney what it was like "to hear the President of the United States call [his] dad a liar" nine times during the debate last night when Obama suggested that something Romney said was not true.
You want to jump out of your seat, and you want to rush down to the debate stage and take a swing at him, Tagg said in response to Lumaye's question. But you know you cant do that, because well, first, because theres a lot of Secret Service between you and him but also because this is just the nature of the process. They're going to try to do everything they can do to make my dad into something he's not."
