Same ppl who are pissed that Romney will be at CPAC would be shoving old ladies out of the way to shake his hand if he were coming as POTUS.

Seth (@dcseth) February 20, 2013Heh. Months ago, people were posting “Where’s Willard” photos and on-scene reports of Mitt Romney sightings. Now, many can see him all at the same time. Mitt Romney is reportedly set to speak at CPAC next month.

Some Twitter users aren’t thrilled by the news.
Ugh, Mitt Romney is speaking at #CPAC? Thanks, Obama.—

Mitt Romney to speak at CPAC — is he going to apologize to conservatives?—
(@toddstarnes) February 20, 2013
My suggestion to Mitt Romney: if you want to contribute to the GOP going forward, write a check.—
Dan McLaughlin (@baseballcrank) February 20, 2013
Sorry, but Mitt Romney is not a wise choice for a speaker at CPAC.—

GOP: Time to modernize and shake things up.
CPAC 2013: Mitt Romney!—

I hope Mitt' CPAC speech include a full throated defense Romney/ObamaCare and he endorses Rubio's amnesty plan. #MIttUnplugged—

These fools might as well invite Obama nationalreview.com/corner/341124/… CPAC mattered in 2009. In 2013, just another tax-exempt DC institution—

Harsh! On the flip-side:
Don't like Romney at #CPAC? Here are some options: 1) Don't listen to him 2) Don't go to CPAC or 3) Put on a conference & don't invite him.—

Booing Romney at #CPAC after having voted for him (especially in the primary) is pretty ridiculous.—

.@mittromney 2 speak at CPAC: nationalreview.com/corner/341124/…. Could be either a gracious thank you or a riveting post-mortem. The latter, I hope—
Hugh Hewitt (@hughhewitt) February 20, 2013
Complaining about Romney at CPAC? Meh. I guess being conservative isn't enough for, um, conservatives. Stop complaining and do something.—
Jake (@UCCowboy) February 20, 2013
Don't see benefit of Romney speaking at CPAC, but he's a good man and would have made a good Prez, so don't really get cheap shots either.—

You got to hand it to ACU. If nothing else, the Romney returns narrative will lead to great press coverage for CPAC.—
Ana Navarro (@ananavarro) February 20, 2013
I know the 1st impulse is to mock, but Romney @ CPAC could be a pretty impt moment – will help define what role he will play in GOP, if any.—
Addisu Demissie (@ASDem) February 20, 2013
Still, mocking is something on which all can agree! Hit it, Twitter.
Prediction:Romney will get booed during his CPAC speech but Stu Stevens will latter claim "the speech hit all of our numbers"—

Romney to CPAC: "I would have won if only I'd made Ted Nugent my running mate."—

Romney speaking at #cpac is like me speaking at my ex-wife's wedding.—
Jason Stanford (@JasStanford) February 20, 2013
Ok @CPACNews we all fell for the "Romney to speak at CPAC" thing. Now you can admit we've been punked.—
DrewM (@DrewMTips) February 20, 2013
I hope Mitt Romney grew an Al Gore style beard. That would be worth seeing.—
John Ekdahl, Jr. (@JohnEkdahl) February 20, 2013
We need to have a panel with Romney, Stu Stevens & Karl Rove. Have these guys tell us what everyone else did wrong to force them to lose.—
Ben Howe (@BenHowe) February 20, 2013
A hashtag enters the mix.
"Hi folks, I'm Mitt Romney and I'd like to talk to you about a reverse mortgage from AAG." #RomneyCPACexcerpts—

You've never had a keynote who wanted to do this less than me. #RomneyCPACexcerpts—
Pundit Review (@PunditReview) February 20, 2013
Heh. And some advice for attendees.
For those of you attending #CPAC2013, applaud Romney for his efforts, but don't let nostalgia prevent you from losing sight of the future.—
