Its 2002 All Over Again...

Orrin Hatch (finally) retires and within minutes Mitt Romney is scheming to run for the US Senate from Utah.  All that is missing is a conspicuous female politician to temporarily obstruct his path to Power.
"Here is Mitt Romney HE, WILL SAVE US!" Said No One Ever.  Oh social media is alive with references to the Salt Lake Winter Olympics, where Mitt fired some contractors and dilegently collected licensing fees as the sum total of his heroism - my Next Door Neighbor's Dog could have done as good a job for Cthulu's Sake. And then there is "Staples" which is literally the only business enterprise ever acquired by Bain Capital whose workers jobs weren't outsources to Manila and the Shoulders of Orion.
Paltry stuff indeed....Nonetheless...
I wish the People of Utah the Sweet Christian Joy of Willard Mitt Romney, entitled, craven, a bully to those weaker than him a toady to those who overwhelm him....the man is changeless I will grant him that.
But the notion that Romney is gonna climb into the US Senate to somehow be a loud voice against Trump is ridiculous, just because Mitt has a glass jaw when it comes to Right(wing) Hooks, doesn't make him the fabled Moderate GOP Messiah, it never ever did, but....this seems to be a lesson we haven't yet internalized.
