Worked for Hillary. However, remember the uproar when Liddy Dole, who was actually from North Carolina, moved back to NC and ran for the Senate? The reaction by the Democrats was hysterical, particularly from folks who were HRC supporters.

I agree with the post. He should not run there. But if it's in the rules, and Utes vote for him...

I hate everything about this, and I voted for the man in 2012.

His little senate run can go right to hell.

Exactly.

This guy is the definition of a political hack. He jets all over the country and runs for office for a living.

Not every instance of carpetbagging is inherently bad/detrimental, but this situation is exactly the type of thing that is bad for all the constituents involved, IMO.

Unfortunately, carpetbaggers have been successful and he'll throw a ton of dough at his campaign.
I would not support such a person.

Utah gets to choose.

I hope they don’t choose Establishment Mitt.

As with most modern day political shenanigans, this all pretty much started with the Kennedys.

We southerners would know all about carpetbaggers. People moving here from the NE and getting into office by other carpetbaggers voting them in and turning our states into " progressive" places from whence they came. They outnumber us now.
