Romney Redux?

Everyone’s piling on to the McCain-Iseman story, but it’s been hard to find local bloggers doing more than quoting the MSM and the political blogosphere. HatCityBlog from Connecticut relies on those quotes but gathers the plot twists ardently… and ends on a nice local note pegged to the rumors of a Romney revival:

With more reports contradicting McCain hitting the press, people in Romney’s inner circle are smelling blood, which is why this strategic tidbit from his son is making it’s way around the press today.

“Josh Romney, one of former Gov. Mitt Romney’s five sons, says it’s ‘possible’ his father may rejoin the race for the White House, as a vice presidential candidate or as the Republican Party’s standard-bearer if the campaign of Sen. John McCain falters. […] ”

Will the wheels off the McCain straight talk express fall off? Only time will tell but with Romney’s camp throwing hints out in the press, maybe Mayor Boughton should have held off jumping on McCain’s bandwagon until AFTER the Republican National Convention. On second thought, seeing that Boughton was co-chair of Romney’s team in Connecticut and couldn’t get a single WARD IN DANBURY to vote for his anti-immigrant buddy, I don’t think Romney’s losing any sleep over anything Mark does at this point.
