Romney Floats Names for 2016

February 6, 2014 · 6:47 am ET · Leave a Comment

Mitt Romney weighed in on who he would like to see run for the Republican presidential nomination, The Hill reports.

Said Romney: “Right now, we’ve got a very full group of people — Marco Rubio; Jeb Bush; Chris Christie; Rand Paul; Paul Ryan, of course, my running mate, an extraordinary man; John Kasich, governor of Ohio, doing a great job there; Scott Walker in Wisconsin.”

He added: “We’ve got a lot of very good people. Susana Martinez in … New Mexico. … I didn’t mention Mike Huckabee. Of course, Mike Huckabee ran before, did a fine job. He may be coming back and giving it another shot.”
