Romney-palooza gets underway in Utah with Rand Paul, Chris Christie - and David Axelrod (http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/watercooler/2013/jun/5/romney-palooza-gets-underway-utah-rand-paul-chris-/)


Mitt Romney has returned to the public radar seven months after losing the presidential election, granting carefully parsed out interviews and timely statements that get more aggressive with each news report.

As the week plays out, it’s all about “Experts and Enthusiasts,” a three-day summit organized by Mr. Romney that begins Wednesday in Park City, Utah pairing up high-profile politicians, tycoons, investors and the proverbial “thought leaders” of the Republican Party.

On the motley guest list: Rep. Paul Ryan, Sen. Rand Paul, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Obama strategist David Axelrod and Hewlett-Packard CEO Meg Whitman.

“They represent very different perspectives in the Republican Party,” says Mr. Romney. said.

The conference has a $5,000 registration fee, incidentally. Eldest son Tagg Romney also plays a role: his private equity firm Solamere Capital is a partial sponsor of the meeting.

It's already been posted. These are the people who endorsed Romney who are also potential 2016 presidential candidates. Romney has said numerous times that he wanted to play a backstage role in helping some of the candidates. He's probably seeing who he is going to help financially.
