    The fact he wants to bring "Utah's values to Washington" scares me.

    "Utah values" don't scare me half as much as another NEOCON getting a seat. As a politician, he is obsolete.

    He was Governor of MA, right? Now he wants to bring basically leftist policy to Washington posing as a conservative? No thanks.

    Easily. He's already made it clear he doesn't like Trump. The President has enough of that already without adding another hostile vacillater.

    Romney is treacherous. I simply could not believe that terrible anti-Trump rant speech he gave in 2016! That was so wrong. He is splitting the party in Utah and the election hasn't started.

    I never voted for him (or Obama) in 2012. I don't vote for Mormons, especially not for president. I think this is a bad, bad move for Utah, where there are a lot of Trump supporters, so I hope Romney does not run.

    Utah loves it's guns, it's peculiar laws and it's open land. Hopefully they see Romney for the two-faced pile he is.

    Name recognition goes a long way I fear.

    In Utah? Once Romney has the nomination, it doesn't matter.

    Well when he ran against Ted Kennedy, he claimed to be to the left of teddy on gay rights. So maybe you should not worry.
