Mitt PAC

mittpac.jpg

Former Massachusetts Gov. and former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney - a possible future vice presidential candidate - has formed a political action committee to help GOP candidates.

It’s the “Free and Strong America PAC” and, according to a release, “will support officeholders and candidates who are dedicated to advancing social, fiscal and foreign policies that will strengthen America at this critical time in the nation’s history.”

Says Romney - who is heading to John McCain’s Arizona retreat this weekend along Florida Gov. Charlie Crist and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, two other potential McCain running mates:

“America is at a crossroads. If we are to remain a leader in the world, we must be prepared to tackle the numerous challenges ahead of us with the same innovation and spirit that has made us the envy of the world. Together with the candidates we support, and the help of the American people, we can embrace solutions that will create a strong economy, strong families and a strong military.”

The PAC’s first list of supported candidates includes Reps. Tom Feeney and Connie Mack of Florida, and Tom Price of Georgia.
