20. Well, consider this. Romney got 61 million votes in '12 running against an incumbent.

Obviously he would't be running against President Obama again, an open seat is a whole different ballgame.

The GOP has already implemented new primary rules to minimize the "clown car" aspect of the last campaign.

It's unlikely that anything new will be dug up about the Mittster so any mud tossed his way is old news.

Depending on who the Democratic Party actually nominates and because the Repugs are delaying their convention in '16 he may very well try to sweep in as a party "uniter" late in the proceedings.

At least I would guess that's how he sees it.
