.....could they possibly get someone better to lead the charge than Mitt Romney?

It's like, "So you don't want to vote for batshit insane proto-fascist Trump? Then here, try this bland, out-of-touch white bread guy who was defeated pretty soundly last election! That's the ticket!"

But then again, we're dealing with Republicans here.

1. Their car elevator clearly isn't going to the top floor on this one.

Mittens is about as likely to inspire a revolt against Trump as Trump's hair is to stay put in a high wind.

2. Is "they" Romney?

I'm not sure anyone asked Romney to do this. I doubt Reince Priebus did. This may just be Romney trying to stay relevant in republican politics.

4. Am watching faux's show "Outnumbered" .... 4 women and a guy....

It's been a riot listening to them totally diss Mitt Romney.....and how with baited breath they're waiting for tRump to land in Portland with in the hour to hear what the answer he'll have for Romney. It's great TV.

5. WHO are THEY, though? Are the giant

right-wing power blocks within and without the GOP establishment coming together behind one candidate or will it be a battle of the titans?

6. I will admittedly give old Mitt some kudos for the Trump University line.

That was actually decent from Mr. 47%, I'll have to confess.
