Romney powerful force in GOP

Tweet

Doug Gross, who was chairman of Romney's presidential campaign in Iowa, said he would be shocked if Romney were not named to a Cabinet position in a McCain presidency.

He's clearly a guy who has got all the executive tools to solve some of the problems our country faces. I very much expect that, Gross was quoted as saying.

Despite not being the GOP vice presidential nominee, Romney will continue to be a pretty powerful force in the Republican Party nationally, said former Massachusetts Gov. Paul Cellucci.

Ron Kaufman, a member of the Republican National Committee from Massachusetts and Romney senior adviser, said he was disappointed Romney was not McCain's pick.

I'm a huge fan of Mitt Romney, and I think he's a tremendously talented person, and would bring lots to the table in ways that are different than the governor of Alaska, Kaufman said.
