In reply to the discussion: Mitt Romney Will Not Run Again [View all]calimary
(81,225 posts)66. Welcome to DU, Gamecock Lefty!
Glad you're here! I'm with you. If Hillary is our nominee, we all need to get behind her. Because the alternative is more scalias and more altos and more clarence thomases in the Supreme Court. It all comes down to that, I'm afraid. If you stay home on Election Day (because you didn't get YOUR preferred candidate as Democratic nominee), then YOU will have brought that down on the rest of us.
I understand the Warren wing. I feel like I'm in it. But she says she isn't running, and she may well be better-positioned to get a few things done where she is. And she could always change her mind later. Even Bernie Sanders says he won't be a spoiler, so he gets it, too. The White House HAS TO STAY BLUE. Beyond ANY doubt!

The thought of another Bush in the White House makes me more sick than just nausious!

It's gotta crush him - his ego wanted it so bad, and he never quit campaigning after 2012

Yep. Full-on praise for Jebbie while full-on attack of any Democrat who dares to challenge him.

I didn't say he was a great person or someone I wanted to have as my president or even my friend.

Oh, I'm certain Mitt is going to get a nice cushy position. He can't seem to quit politics.

A good argument can be made that Mitt wanted everyone to think he was going to run.

Maybe he'd like a corporation to run and be the nominee - they're people, after all
