Massachusetts Republicans are desperately scrambling to find a strong Senate candidate to replace Scott Brown, with some even trying to persuade Mitt Romney’s wife or son to jump into the race to avert another electoral disaster.

The former GOP senator’s decision to stay out of the June 25 special election surprised and angered some Republican leaders, who said it will make it much harder to beat a Democratic opponent without Brown on the ballot.

When one is not enough, I try .

Why, lord, why?

I heard Richard Tisei might throw his hat in. I like the guy but he's a two time loser too.

If Romney hadn't lost running for president TWICE, I could see that he might be a good option, only because control of the Senate by Republicans is desperately needed to fight Obama. But now I think he has "loser" stamped all over him and he couldn't win any political office.

He also previously lost running for the Senate in MA. People forget that.
