At least six Republican candidates for the presidency are headed to Utah for a summit hosted by Mitt Romney that begins on Thursday.
If the old saying that you learn more in defeat than in victory is true, Romney has plenty to teach.
“I think there’s a lot you can learn from talking with a candidate who has run and won, but there’s also a lot you can learn from a candidate who has run and lost,” said Craig Robinson, a former political director of the Republican Party of Iowa. “There were clearly problems with the Romney campaign but if you get into [an event like this] you can really expand your knowledge base.”
The site for the gathering is Park City, Utah. The Republican hopefuls scheduled to attend are Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.), Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, Sen. Lindsey Graham (S.C.), New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and businesswoman Carly Fiorina. According to multiple media reports, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was invited but could not attend because of a trip to Europe.
One of the prime attractions of the event will be the ability to connect to Romney’s formidable donor network. For all his much-discussed missteps as a candidate, Romney remained financially competitive with President Obama in 2012.

Good Grief.
Wading in the alligator pond.
This is instructive. Not one of these clowns has the judgment to be president. They should be laughing at Mitt the Twit, not seeking advice from him.
Two words I didn’t see in the article:
Ted Cruz.
I noticed that too...LOL.
Translation... The Republicans are looking for a way to lose the election once again....
Well they’re looking in the right place.
Do they want advice on how to throw away an election?
There's certainly a plethora of GOP Presidential losers to pick from.
ANY fool who looks to Romney for help in 2016 automatically disqualifies themselves for my vote.
Maybe with a little luck they can wheel out Bob (Bob) Dole for some sage advice to the idiots. /s
Why look to Romney when they can look to Senator McCain as an expert in how to win a presidential election.
