Just like I always said... he only ran probably because Anne nagged him into it. Just think of the fun and comedic value we would have had if Mitt wasn't in the primaries and we ended up with Cain or Bachmann or Santorum.
------------------------------------------
Tagg Romney said his father "wanted to be president less than anyone I've met in my life," according to the Boston Globe.
“He had no desire,” the eldest Romney son said. “If he could have found someone else to take his place ... he would have been ecstatic to step aside. He is a very private person who loves his family deeply and wants to be with them, but he has deep faith in God and he loves his country, but he doesn’t love the attention."
Tagg Romney told the paper that his father was resistant to running because of his unsuccessful 2008 bid for president.

hahahaha
such a fucking sore loser, so he spent all that money, roughly 8.9 million of it government money and all that stress and time because he didn't want to? lololo.
sounds like a fucking sore loser to me. This guy is a fucking silver spoon baby, he doesn't write a concession speech cause he is use to getting his way, then loses and claims he didn't want to win. He is a hollow, vain man... and anyone who voted for this loser should be ashamed.
this is like him being at an auction and betting the price up and going back and forth then when he loses saying he didn't want it. Sad man.

I suppose a son knows his dad, but I would suspect it was only this way in the beginning. After a period of time, I would think Mitt wanted it.
Campaigning is hell, I just can't see him staying if he didn't really want it.

obviously, it is a way to save face.

He don't need to save face. He's successful enough.

he is a complete failure... he has failed at everything he's tried to do in life

If this is true (and I assume it is unless Tagg is a big a liar as his father) then Mitt is an even bigger asshole that I had originally thought (and Tagg isn't far behind)
Putting your ideology aside, if you're running for what is possibly the hardest job on the planet don't you at least owe it to your fellow Americans to actually want the job
Just when I thought I couldn't think any less of Romney I find out he's even more hollow that I had originally thought
-
The best the GOP could put forth is someone that didn't even want the job.
Classic.

Yeah pretty weird to run twice and use a shitload of money if you dont want to be president.
Maybe he did it to screw the GOP.

Makes me sick

I agree with this. He didn't need the money or the stress of the job. He has already been one of the most successful businessmen in American in many years. Could definitely see him being reluctant to run, initially.
-
he spent the last 20 years building a political resume just to be president. he wanted that shit way more than anyone else in the race.
he'd been running since he was a kid... remember his dad telling him "make your fortune THEN get into politics"
he wanted it. he was heartbroken that the repub/right polls were all so skewed.

I believe this too
Tagg is just showing the pettyness and lying run in the family
Tagg is now saying he begged his father to run and previously he has said he asked his father not to run
what I can't figure out is why Tagg (or Mitt) would think this new lie would make him a more sympathetic figure rather than just that much more of a pathetic liar

so in the end, mitt can claim this as a win.
it would have been the feather in the cap of his amazing life story.

how it a win to claim you never wanted the job you pretended to want
don't you at least owe it to the people you are trying to get to vote for you that you actually want the job
this was nothing more than a FUCK YOU to all his voters, donors, volunteers etc..
btw - It's also a FUCK YOU to everyone on this board that supported, donated or voted for Romney
-
Mitt's just a pussy and this is his sour grapes excuse to save face. Sound familiar?
-
He don't need to save face. He's successful enough.
Money and business wise maybe but his personality is sad. A weak man.

he blamed loser supporters like you for his overall disgust with the american't electoral system
