Guess who former VP Joe Biden wants to run for Senate in Utah: Mitt Romney

Park City • Former Vice President Joe Biden is encouraging someone unusual, at least for a Democrat, to run for the Senate seat now held by Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah: Mitt Romney.

Biden told Romney he should run as they spoke together on stage in a private event at Romney's annual invitation-only summit over the weekend for his supporters, businessmen and Republican power brokers.
