"After putting considerable thought into making another run for president, I've decided it is best to give other leaders in the party the opportunity to become our next nominee," Romney said in a statement, which he planned to read to supporters.”Romney took his action, one supposes, based on a realistic assessment of his prospects for victory, following two bitter defeats for the top job, especially the 2012 contest in which incumbent Barack Obama seemed incredibly vulnerable. Conservatives in the GOP have been vociferous in warning the likes of Romney and other so-called RINOs, that America is on the verge of falling into progressive oblivion, a fate that must be reversed by installing a bona fide conservative in the oval office to heal the rot and disintegration brought about by eight years of Marxist socialism at the hands of Barack Obama. The big question: Will Mitt Romney’s patriotic act resonant with other dangerous RINOs, like Jeb Bush, in sufficient force to save America in 2016?

For years, John lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, the very liberal sanctuary city which protects, rather than prosecutes, certain favored criminals. John escaped the Bay Area in May and now lives in Pine Grove California where conservative values are still in vogue.
