" And thanks for joining us we begin with a big ticket fund raiser for the Massachusetts Republican Party headliner former governor Mitt Romney probably has been crisscrossing the country of late speaking out on issues building political alliances. Is it all of prelude to another ran for president. If so. He's not sure."

" Her Mitt Romney mainstay on cable news -- was that Republican fund raisers around the country. He's been taking on the president on health care. Would be also backed mr. Obama on getting involved in the failed attempt to bring -- 36 summer Olympic Games to Chicago. Mitt Romney has maintained a high profile on the national stage but a relatively lower. On the local -- I've still Massachusetts resident. Oh god I I have no intention of changing residency anytime soon -- this night Romney is the guest of honor at the house Republican pack. Recent Rasmussen poll indicates he or Mike Huckabee would handily beat former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin in a Republican primary. The political wags are talking but Romney won't budge on whether he will run."

" You know I don't I don't think I'll start thinking about that until after the November 2010 elections and now. Begin thinking about it and -- on the decision process will be but I don't. I don't have any plans that make it a decision anytime soon."

" Well I certainly hope that he's gonna look at running between twelve local Republicans like house minority leader Brad Jones are ready to throw their support behind any Romney presidential bid I was enthusiastic supporter Mitt Romney would certainly be looking forward to that. He knew him maybe doing that again but for now Romney is concentrating on getting other people like Republican state senator Scott Brown who is running for US senate."

" The governor's -- and governor weld and governor Romney in governor swift and a whole host of other people of the members of the brown brigade and everybody else -- getting involved in my race and so I'm very excited all of their support beyond the local senate race Romney says he has his hands full working in other states."

" Right now I'm focused on trying to get some good people elected in 2009 this year in Virginia and New Jersey. And then also in 2010 outlets in little more balance in Washington so I'll do whatever I can't help."

" Governor Mitt Romney. Has had a low profile relatively speaking as I said at the top of the report here in the bay state the last time we actually talked to him on the record. Was when his portrait was in veiled. At the Statehouse that was back at the end of June. RD Scott back to residency for awhile and I believe the governor sold his home in Belmont I think he sold a home -- you've -- as well where exactly is he living what state. Well we always say you heard say there that he intends to remain in Massachusetts resident Andy is a Massachusetts resident but he is actually residing with his Sonntag at the moment in Belmont and he told us. That he intends to stay in Belmont even though they've sold their home there he does have an offer on a Condo there. That's where he intends to stay Scott got in Boston and back."
