ABC News: Tagg Romney Unlikely To Run In Mass. Special Election

http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entry/abc-news-tagg-romney-unlikely-to-run-in

Sources close to Tagg Romney on Monday knocked down a Boston Herald report that suggested Mitt Romney's son was considering running in the Massachusetts special election to fill John Kerry's Senate seat.

One source told ABC News that Tagg Romney "grew tremendously" during the elder Romney's campaign, but won't walk away from his company at this time


So, who's left? Kerry Healey? Dan Winslow? Seal Gomez? Ablow?

(a name I have not heard is Jane Swift, former acting governor of MA before Romney. She is as credible as anyboy else in this list).

During an interview with North Carolina radio host Bill LuMaye, Tagg Romney said that hearing
the president call his father a liar made him want to "jump out of [his] seat and ... rush down
to the debate stage and take a swing at him."

He was also willing to lie for his dad re tax residence issues.

yup, he has name recognition and unimpeachable conservative creds. If he's willing to show his face.
