Bushies push Romney as VP.

Fred Barnes of the Weekly Standard reports that President Bush favors former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney as Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) running mate, as does Jeb Bush, who “preferred Romney over McCain in the primaries.” Bill Kristol also recently stated that “Mitt Romney would be good,” adding that he “vetted the idea with former White House aide Karl Rove.”
