Mitt Romney is finally heading to Washington. The 2012 Republican presidential nominee won a seat in the Senate for his adopted home state of Utah in Tuesday's election.
"I will be only one of a hundred United States senators, but I believe that one person doing the right thing at the right time can have a lasting impact," Romney said on Election Night.
For Romney, it was the right time. In 2012, he waged a hard-fought presidential campaign, complete with an endorsement from then-businessman Donald Trump. After losing to President Barack Obama, Romney stepped out of the public eye.
Four years later, with President Trump heading for the Republican nomination, he came back swinging, calling Mr. Trump a "phony," and "a fraud."
"Think of Donald Trump's personal qualities, the bullying, the greed, the showing off, the misogyny, the absurd third grade theatrics," he said at the time.

And to think I used to be one of the Mittens.
Carpetbagger Mittens following the pattern of carpetbagger Hitlery.
Neither one really a part of the state they claimed to represent....might have met the letter of the law but not the spirit.
Romney; the new Jeff Flake. Just like a goathead burr under your saddle.
Utah appears enroute to being another Colorado.
I h8 mitt.
Im posting this now in case there is a Mormon Mafia on this site. Mittens just plain sucks and I will bet big $ that he will be the new Juan Mcain.
Changing my tag line.
yuck!
Turning 18 in 1972 and voting Republican/Conservative in every election since then starting with Nixon, Mitt is the only candidate I could not vote for and went for the Constitutional Party candidate. Quite frankly, don’t trust the guy. No regrets on that vote. On a side note, my voice meant nothing this last Tuesday in California. I did not even have a Senate candidate to choose from my party. Ugh. Well, it least I have my Catholic Faith and an Orthodox pope to defend it....oh wait. Aaagh! “Jesus I trust in you!” Now that I got! :)
Colorado, another wonderful state that’s being destroyed by leftist political hacks
The Junior Senator from Utah will be known as JUDAS.
We know the job isn't big enough for you, but try to bear up under the humiliation. :)
More importantly he’s one of 4 freshmen, junior Senators and the Pubs have enough majority, he will have no influence whatsoever. The media will ignore him.
Knowing him, he’d rather share some spolight with Trump than be some nobody Senator from Utah.
It’s not like he isn’t a soulless media hound.
” he waged a hard-fought presidential campaign,”
Spreading the blanket a little thin here?
IMO, this is why MR ran for Senate: https://goo.gl/images/xiod5K
IMO, President Trump can keep him on a leash with seven words: Mitt, I think you should run again. Because in the end Trump will wield mighty sway with scores of millions of voters.
Go Trump!
The so called ‘right thing’ for Willard involve voting for AMNESTY, abortion, gun grabbing, bad trade deals etc ...
Willard will run to support anything that is bad for America and Americans...he cant help his liberal self...
Im thinking that is a reference to McCain voting against repeal and replace as a way to foil the president. Mitt wants to have fun too.
Anti American sick-o.
How would he know?
Something is wrong with that guy. If he is Soros paid then everything would make sense.
You’re probably right ;-)
How do you figure? His best chance would be to get elected President Pro Tem of the Senate and then hire some assassins.
Really, he’s too old to run again in 2024 and would have no chance in against Trump in 2020.
I sorta believe he’ll try in 2020.
(It’s a nasty world out there...)
