Like Michael Dukakis and  Bob Dole, Mitt Romney is now rapidly fading into history.Not only have the American people rejected him, but now his own party is leaving him in the dust.

According to The Week, Romney embodies everything the Republican party wants to distance themselves from, especially "the stereotype that it is for, by, and for white, affluent men."

Namely, the party is frightened by the summary of Romney's defeat. Romney has been blamed for killing Reaganomics. According to Michael Tomasky of The Daily Beast, all Romney's proposed 20 percent tax cut accomplished "was to raise questions about how he was going to pay for it."

Is there a way for Romney to resurrect himself from the graveyard of forgotten losers? Only time will tell but in the mean time he can take a few pointers from the former 2004 Democratic Nominee, John Kerry.

Post-2004 Kerry laid low, waiting for the moment when the spot light would shine on him again. His moment has now come. Kerry has racked up brownie points in his run as Massachusetts' Senator as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Now Kerry has positioned himself perfectly for the coveted Secretary of State position or, more likely, the Secretary of Defense position.
