Romney is a douche. Most LDS and Utahns now recognize this. However, I've been a bit sickened by Facebook today seeing some people praise him and saying he did the tough thing and that he has character. Just because he did a hard thing turning against his own party doesn't mean it was the right thing.

I like this Federalist article because it points out how Romney has never been a man of character. He's always a politician changing according to the latest poll. He might as well just admit he's a dem and join them. They need another candidate to run against Trump.

He’s more useful to them where he is, I’m thinking.

I’m interested to see if an investigation into the Biden/Ukraine thing will lead to his family connections.

Mitt just plain fell off the fence! He's been waffling for years, a lost sole ( shoe leather) in the swamp! Hangs with both sides, never committing to anything! Maybe gaters on both sides will eat him!

Is there a place in Utah called Deceived?
If not there should be mostly between Nevada and Colorado

Romney didn't "deceive" the voters in Utah.............they knew exactly who and what he was. He has a track record that says RINO all the day long.

Consider their alternative at the time.

Consider our alternative when he ran against obama.

Romney greatest concern currently doesn't have anything to do with his future running for office, or how the Federalist thinks of him.

Currently the newly elected mayor of SLC, Mendenhall( socialist) has filed suit against the Inland Port Authority project Romney has a vested interest in (hundreds of millions). They are trying to block the development of it under the cover of envorirnmental impact, when in reality the real reason is enormous tax lost revenue to SLC proper.

If a group of "special interest" can help him Dems or otherwise, he will take it. Not good, bad, or ugly its the way it is. Name a politician that would do otherwise.

The basic question of whether Romney gives politicians a bad name is ---- ironic?

I'll agree with the comparison with Obama, as it was either he or Obama. But, in Utah, they did not have to elect him. They did so because he was a Mormon in good standing.

Not really, that was Utah politics of the 80s and 90s as stated before, the Demos (in Utah) found it easier to work with him than break somebody in. How do you know he was in good standing? Were you his Bishop?

As conservative as Utah seems a lot of state and particularly SLC is very socialistic. This stems from the basic "humanity" package sold by the Mormon church,,, called Welfare State, if you doubt it look into their Deseret Industries side. Or how much of their tithing funds are used to support members who are in various "situations"

Hey Jim I was thinking of voting for Trump in the next election.

Being a Democrat, whats the best way to do that more than once?

It wouldn't surprise me if Mittens found a way to leave the Senate, now that he's killed his chances for acquiring any real power there. If he switches parties, the Dems will take him of course, but he'll never amount to anything with them either, as they hate his guts too in reality.

He's everything we all despise about politicians all rolled into a shiny suit and topped with nice hair. Bitter, jealous, and vindictive to boot. Quite a package.

Hmm a bunch of special interest groups getting together and deciding on something, while some on the far opposite ends protest..... Does sound suspicious doesn't it.

He doesn't have to leave the Senate, all he has to do is ---- wait for it------ nothing (sound like McCain?). He already has real power. If anything he will go on the Board of Directors for the Inland Port Authority, or a Board of Directors for Amazon.


Wont disagree with the other part.
