Romney Aggressively Courting Bush's "Pioneer" And "Ranger" Fundraisers
In a move that would seem to further indicate he is preparing a run for President in 2008, Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney has been aggressively courting top fundraisers for President Bush known as "Pioneers" and "Rangers."
"I can't tell you the number of people who have called me and said, 'Mitt's called me,' " one major GOP fundraiser told the Boston Globe. If he were to run, Romney would join former NYC Mayor Rudy Giulliani, Sen. John McCain, Rep. Duncan Hunter and former WI Gov. Tommy Thompson in the expanding GOP fold.

Romney is definitely running. He's been "preparing" for most of his single term as governor of Massachusetts.
I think it will be McCain vs. Romney. Gingrich is the only one who could possibly throw a monkeywrench into the GOP primaries if he runs.

I think we ought to make a big deal out of Huckabee's claim that McCain set himself up for the run by writing into McCain Feingold an advantage for senators but not governors to transfer cash from their warchests into a presidential run.
