At the time, Bush wouldn’t confirm the reported meeting, citing his “respect” for Romney. He added jokingly that he was headed to Utah to ski.
Last month, Bush announced he would \"actively explore the possibility of running for president of the United States,” and several weeks later he launched a political action committee to fund travel related to his possible run, as well as a place for supportive donors to place funds ahead of an official run.
Romney told a group of supporters in New York earlier this month he’s considering a third run for the White House. Last week, at the Republican National Committee’s winter meeting, Romney said he was “giving some serious consideration to the future.”
