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.

I see the gentleman from Utah our friendly beehive state. How can we help you Utah, how can we make you great?
Well we got to irrigate our deserts, we got to get some things to grow. And we got to tell this country about Utah, cuz nobody seems to know.
Mitt arrives and PRyan leaves; talk about changing of the guard.
“McCain’s replacement is in route.”
My thoughts, exactly.
No liberal has ever arrived in the U.S. Senate with a more impressive track record than Mitt Romney.
Father of “gay marriage.”
Father of homosexualized public schools and state government.
Father of socialized medicine, complete with taxpayer-funded abortions.
Signer of permanent “assault weapons” ban.
Abortion profiteer, via his one-time controlling interest in Stericycle, which burns the bodies of multitudes of murdered little boys and girls for money.
Mormons- Muslims with haircuts.
With the extra republican seats won in senate, romney will be near totally irrelevant.
No different than Reid.......No DIFFERENT!!!
Mitt “McCain” Romney reporting for dudy.
Right ?
I couldn’t vote for Feinstein or Deleon either
No freaking way
And that idiot we have as gov Newsom ? Hell be waaaaay over his head
Romney is an Establishment Republican. I don’t see him helping President Trump advance his agenda.
It must be so hard for him to call anyone else a phony.
I like the comment another freeper said yesterday: “Great. Now we’ll never be done with him.”
Mitt JUDAS Romney is a good nickname for the guy.
Makes me want to puke. Might have known that DS POS would win. Maybe there’s a sealed indictment with his name on it.
Does he still have a dog?
Is the dog going with him?
>> but I believe that one person doing the right thing at the right time can have a lasting impact <<
Kinda like McCain with his theatrical thumbs down?
I couldn’t do it either. Didn’t really know much about him but saw a speech. His voice went higher at the end of each sentence like it was trailing off into heaven.
Basically sounded like the fakest televangelist ever.
Romney corrupt, no Republican, a CNN panel lapdog....
Between your post and mine I now declare FR to be “fair and balanced.”
I just realized you meant me as someone who doesn’t know Romney is no Republican. I merely meant this RINO was running with an R instead of being a Dem and thus was still better than a Dem (in this current climate only).
I was born in MI in 1946 and knew all about his Gov. George Romney father & run for prez in 1968, and Mitt’s wimpy Massachusetts history and inability to defeat Obama to save us all from him.
His anti-Trump primary speeches insulting him will never be forgotten and I only meant Mitt is an R and not a D but the R stands for worthless, two-faced traitorous RINO.
Hope you will forgive me.
