After months of will-he-or-won’t-he speculation – and on the heels of the Republican victory on tax reform, and effort that he helped supervise and lead – Utah Senator and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch said Tuesday that he will retire when his term ends at the end of this year. Hatch, who as the longest serving Republican member of the Senate also served as President Pro Tempore, had been expected to decide by the end of 2017.........

His decision to step aside leaves an opening for former Massachusetts Gov. and Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney to run for Hatch's soon-to-be-vacant seat.

Incoming Mitt Romney senator of Utah.
Why would anyone think he'd make a good senator - 'only needs 51%' and has 'binders of woman' ?

What if John Kuntsman Jr. wants it?

I guess the mormon pope would make the decision.

Mitt Romney changes Twitter location to Utah after Orrin Hatch's retirement announcement

Mitt Romney has not announced whether he plans to run for U.S. Senate in Utah after Sen. Orrin Hatch said he would retire at the end of this year, but his Twitter account might provide a hint about what he is thinking.

An eagle-eyed reporter, Sahil Kapur of Bloomberg, noticed that in the hours since Hatch revealed his retirement plans on Tuesday, Romney updated his Twitter location from Massachusetts to Holladay, Utah.

Speculation has run rampant about Romney announcing a run for Hatch's seat as it has long been reported that the 2012 Republican presidential nominee was interested in it, but not if Hatch decided to vie for re-election.

Romney was the governor of Massachusetts from 2003 to 2007. He ran two unsuccessful campaigns for president in 2008 and 2012. Afterwards, he moved to a house in Holladay, Utah.

He sent out a Facebook message Tuesday to say he joins the "people of Utah in thanking my friend, Senator Orrin Hatch for his more than forty years of service to our great state and nation."
