Josh Romney has figured it out.

A Romney may face difficulties getting elected nationally, but it's a slam dunk in Utah. Even someone who is distantly related to Mitt, Savior of the Salt Lake Olympics—let alone a son, is going to kick butt within the state's borders.

Josh Romney, who lives in Utah, told the Deseret News that he is considering running against Utah's only Democrat in Washington, Congressman Jim Matheson. Matheson, who has only had to whup boneheads like LaVar Christensen, ought to be shaking in his shoes.

As for the rest of us, it's a toss up. A Romney Republican is basically the same thing as a Matheson Democrat. Jeepers, they even look alike!

Meanwhile, will Patriarch Mitt follow his son's lead and come back Utah to be a U.S. senator?
