Source: Romney, Bush to meet in Utah

The source said the meeting, which was first reported by The New York Times on Wednesday, was requested by Bush as a gesture of respect for Romney’s leadership role in the party — much like a recent Bush-John McCain meeting that took place at Bush’s request.

And now?

“Well obviously Governor Romney has changed the dynamics,” the source said.

“What I heard is a man that’s ready to come out and tackle the Hawkeye state,” Kaufmann said, though he noted that Bush stressed he’s still only considering a run and hasn’t become an official candidate.

Last week Ted Gatsas, mayor of Manchester, New Hampshire, tweeted that Bush had called him and told him he plans on coming to the Granite State, which holds the nominating season’s first primary, at some point, according to the Union Leader.
