Romney Campaigns With McCain in Utah

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — John McCain got some help Thursday from former Republican rival Mitt Romney, a pairing that months ago seemed improbable as the two fought bitterly for the party's presidential nomination.

In their first campaign swing as allies, Romney appeared with the likely Republican nominee at a private fundraiser in this Republican bastion. The two were traveling to Denver for a second fundraiser.

They were joined by Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr., an early McCain supporter whose name has been mentioned as a potential vice presidential pick. Meg Whitman, the outgoing chief executive of eBay Inc., and a former Romney backer, also joined them.

Since then, McCain has praised Romney repeatedly as someone who is certain to continue playing a large role in the GOP. Romney, for his part, has suggested that he'd accept the No. 2 spot on the ticket, though some Republicans privately speculate that he's looking ahead to 2012 and a possible repeat run.

1. The Mormon thing will always work against Romeny with the Christian right IMO

And considering they're the one group a republican candidate needs to win... I can't see it ever happening.

2. Good to see McCain wasting his time in Utah of all places

Where is he going next? Alabama?

Careful Mitt - Joey ain't gonna like the competition.
