Mitt Romney is a liar when he insists he's not interested in making an eleventh-hour jump into the 2016 presidential race, says Gabriel Sherman, the media columnist for New York magazine.
"The scenario that's been floated in recent days by GOP insiders I've spoken to is that Romney could enter the Republican primary race late in California and New York to deny Trump the delegates necessary to clinch the nomination," Sherman writes in an essay titled, "Romney Says He's Not a Candidate — He's Lying."
"Then, at a brokered convention, Romney would emerge as the party's choice on a second ballot. There's no real hope that Romney would be able to beat [Democrat Hillary] Clinton — it would essentially be a suicide mission — but losing in 2016, while being able to cast the Trump phenomenon as a fringe aberration, would be better for the party in the long run."
