Dreams of Mitt
Mitt Romney was once again asked The Question: Will you run for president in 2012?

But this time it was under oath in a federal court.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Romney was defending himself in a wrongful firing suit brought by his former public service commissioner. Romney ordered his staff in 2003 to sack William Monahan after reporters started digging into an old real-estate deal between Monahan and a New England Mafia underboss. Romney was cool under questioning by Monahan's lawyer:
Had I known about it, I wouldn't have appointed him in the first place.
Then Monihan's lawyer asked Romney if he planned to run for president again in 2012. Romney said:
That consideration is well down the road.
But Romney said he is finishing a book on the "challenges America faces and what we need to do to get back on track," to be published next year. In recent years, it seems that every presidential campaign begins with a book.

Romney is yesterday's news in the worst kind of way (both for Romney and for anyone else who ever hoped to see Mitt become President).

And for those who count commenting on his prospects among their favored pastimes, the verdict's in: Waste-o'-Time.

Ain't.Gonna.Happen.

Romney supporters and observers might as well start getting over the disappointment right now.

Because it's time to catch up and move on.

Just a friendly heads up.

I'll bet his hair didn't move an inch in that courtroom!

I hope Romney runs in 2012! He'll just waste more of his money showing what an ass-clown he is. He'll have to defend how he went from liberal Massachusetts Guv, to uber-conservative 2008 candidate, to moderate McCain kiss ass - and that's just from the 2008 campaign! Like father, like son - NO PRESIDENCY FOR YOU MR. ROMMEY!
