Many of us out-of-state Republicans were pleased when Mitt Romney was elected to the Senate.
However, the last thing we need now in the U.S. Senate is another John McCain or Jeff Flake. Unless you specially elected Romney to agitate against the president, please do what you can to encourage your new junior senator to stand down. We all need him to support the president, not begin posturing for his own next run.
