They probably all know each other thru the Repub Gov Association.
Thanks! What a line-up.
Could Romney name Jeb as VP if he gets the nomination?
More here:
.....”I must admit, this is much more important to me personally than politically. He’s a real hero to me,” Romney told reporters.
He said the support was a sign of the “growing momentum” for his campaign.
Romney has already been endorsed by Bush’s vice president, Dan Quayle. Bush’s chief of staff, John Sununu, is also a Romney backer and was on the trail with him Thursday.”

Oh come on, Sockmonkey, I just ate!
Anybody But O’Bama.
I’ve had all the Irish I can stand. </sarc>
Read his lips....
Doesn’t sound like Marlin Fitzwater would be endorsing Romney...

“I remember back in 1990, just after Newt had become GOP whip, when Mr. Bush, urged on by Mr. Sununu, was about to break his campaign pledge and raise taxes, which eventually cost him his re-election bid against Mr. Clinton. It was Newt who opposed it. In fact, Marlin Fitzwater, the loyal and shrewd White House press secretary, and no fan of Newt’s at the time, later wrote in his memoirs, “As it turned out, one of the few people on the Republican team who understood this trap [the Democrats demanded Bush raise taxes as the political price to reduce the deficit] was Newt Gingrich. … Newt had … recommended a different course of action: Abandon the budget negotiations [with Democrats], keep the tax pledge, insist that Congress cut spending, and make a political fight out of it. It’s clear now that we should have followed his advice.””
Vote Perry. Annoy the East Coast Establishment.
I suppose Bush Sr. doesn’t like Romney that much.
I am sick to death of Northeastern establishment Republicans and all they represent. Yes, Babs, this means YOU. I remember your snarky comment about Palin and how you hoped she stayed in Alaska. The two of you are just staying true to form by endorsing oily-haired, socially retarded Willard. You can HAVE him. I, on the other hand, will stick with a true patriot and a solid Christian conservative——RICK PERRY.
I didn’t even think of this as a Perry snub, as GHWB had backed Hutchison for governor in 2010. Bushes are socially superior to Perry even if their philosophies are similar. GHWB, himself a failure in office, is just following the lead of his old intraparty rival and other failure, Bob Dole. Do you think Dole’s running mate would be endorsing Romney if he were still around for this election cycle?

You should never be embarrassed FOR a Bush. A Bush will leave you flat every time! When I was in Midland, I stopped by the GWB Bush boyhood home there for historical reasons, but I refused to pay the $5 to go inside. Still though so many Republicans do like Bushes. It’s like Louisiana people liking the Longs, I guess.
“Bush Senior Backs Romney”
RINO’s of a feather.
Who else would he back?
Haha that little white dog looks just like my dog! Neither of us wants Mittens!
Bush Senior was the one who announced the birth of the bastard “New World Order”.
That’s it. They want the NWO and they’ll get it. 0bama is just the latest implimenter. Evil bastards.
