Before someone says can't happen...

S it LEGAL (not necessarily probable) that Mittens could abandon his sinking ship, withdraw from the race and hand it over to Ryan?

Ryan/Santorum any one?

1. Probably not.

Early voting has started in some places, ballots are being printed in others.

No turning back.

3. Then they are well and totally screwed.

good

2. Probably not at this late stage

Besides, Mittens probably doesn't even know that his ship is sinking. He sees the rats jumping off and thinks they're the "47-percenters".

4. Candidate filing deadlines have expired in all states, it would appear.

Even so, do you think Romney would jump ship at this late date if he could?

[Rosco T.]

6. If not jump, maybe pushed

?

5. I agree with others. Romney's no quitter or he'd never have been nominated.

And besides, the only thing really working against Romney winning this election is reality, of which Mr Romney is blissfully ignorant.

[MrSlayer]

7. Probably.

There must be a provision for it somewhere. What if he died or became incapacitated or went insane or just quit? There has to be a way to get out if you want to get out.

8. Too late. Besides, Willard will never admit he made a mistake. He just doubles down on it.

He'll keep on keeping on till Election Day, while entertaining us all with his lunacy and incompetence.

[Rincewind]

9. Willard wont quit.

It's his turn to be president, and by golly, it's his right to be president. He's waited, and now the country owes it to him.

10. Don't worry

Mitt the Twit will come up with an even more crazy scheme tomorrow that will top this one so people won't be talking about this video anymore. This seems to be his line of thinking. If he digs himself into a hole instead of trying to crawl out he just digs a deeper one right next to it.

11. Candidate Ryan would be better off picking 'Baghdad Bob' as his running mate.
