Mitt Romney's purported comeback is capturing the hearts and minds of the media. Here's why it's absolutely insaneJIM NEWELL
It is impossible to ignore the rumblings. Rolling in the streets, through the fields, across the mountains, down the rivers of this nation, there is a great shake. The air is different. Theres an electricity, a vibrancy, pulsing through the heart of each and every American. What is this feeling? Is this a signal from the Divine? Close enough, patriot: Its Romneymentum.
We at Salon Dot Com began feeling the surge on Thursday afternoon, a sudden change of barometric pressure unrelated to the weather. And then it landed in the form of an email from NBC News, announcing the most stunning journalistic coup of this young century: EXCLUSIVE: MITT ROMNEY ON MEET THE PRESS. How did NBC News pull this off? Its not every day that you land an #exclu with the top politician since at least Abraham Lincoln. NBC News would not respond to a query from Salon, so credit this one to a miracle.
Former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney joins David Gregory for an exclusive interview live from his E2 Summit in Park City, Utah where the biggest names in the Republican Party are gathering on the heels of Majority Leader Eric Cantors stunning defeat, the announcement read. What does this all mean for the GOP and 2014? And who does Romney think can beat Hillary Clinton as she weighs a run for the White House?
Well, we hardly had to wait for yesterdays interview to air to learn who could beat Hillary Clinton in 2016. The answer, of course, is Mitt Romney. Dont believe us? Then hear it from that other most consequential kingmaker in right-wing politics today, MSNBC coffee chat host Joe Scarborough:

Overdubbed with wild cheering and applause. Bet he spends a lot of time riding in that elevator.

Joe knows from delusional and is probably hoping to be Mitt's campaign manager. He has failed so badly at commentating. AND, that new hairdo has got to be another sign he's going on the road.
What a pair that would be.

(24,452 posts)3. Who wants Mitt Romney as POTUS IN 2016
And why? I'm confused.
BTW Does he and the rest of the GOP believe that POTUS can control the rest of the world and everything can be resolved by our military and, more importantly, do they think that they are going to get the public to rally around ANOTHER several wars around the globe?

is how bad the GOP internal polling is.

That psycho freak rick scott can be your campaign manager.
Rmoney needs to stop running his cars with the elevator doors closed. CO can cause brain damage.
Scatsborough can be his adviser on how to get rid of interns.
