NO! That would just hand the election to Clinton v.2 in 2016. He should be Romney's VP, so that he can get elected in 2024.

Yeah you're right. That's exactly why businessmen have made the greatest Presidents. I mean look at Herbert Hoover. And Romney's tenure as Governor saw Massachusetts place 1st in job growth for 4 years straight.

Massachusetts had little room for improvement on account of the management of the state by it's two previous Republican governors.

Yes, let's just ignore the heavily Democratic legislature.
