Mitt Romney placed a phone call to 2008 Republican presidential nominee John McCain Tuesday, a sign he is attempting to recapture his support before launching another bid. "He told me he is seriously considering it, and we discussed issues and friendships and things like that," McCain told a scrum of reporters on Capitol Hill. "We had a long conversation. We are very good friends." McCain wouldn't divulge details of the conversation, but he did say he told Romney he understood wanting to run again for the White House.That sound you hear is 3 million staunch conservatives throwing up in their mouths. ...But, look at it from Mitt's perspective. If your hope is to be the centrist alternative to Jeb Bush, it only makes sense that you'd seek the support of the "maverick" king of the middle. Besides, who isn't a fan of the sure-to-be-exciting political strategy cooked up by Mitt Romney and John McCain?
