Washington • Mitt Romney has been a corporate CEO, head of the 2002 Winter Olympics, a governor and a two-time presidential candidate.
In each of those roles, Romney was in charge. The decider. The top dog.
Romney soon will be one of 100 senators, meaning he’ll have to convince more than a majority of his colleagues to get something done. He can’t do it by executive authority. And with the Senate so split, this Republican will have to win over some Democrats.
“Never been a legislator before. A new experience,” Romney, dispensing with pronouns, told The Salt Lake Tribune in an interview.
