First you marry into the Heinz fortune...How does a Massachusetts liberal end up as a senator from Utah?
I know John Kerry did, but then again, some Mormon sects are okay with polygamy, so I suppose it's not out of the question. Are you saying Kerry and Romney are both married to the same woman?First you marry into the Heinz fortune...

No one will remember this in four years, so it doesn't matter who runs then.

I'm not so sure about that, I vividly remembered Joe Donnelly for 6 years.
The dirty truth of DC politics is that the outcome of all votes is known well ahead of time. When the outcome is known, and there are votes to spare, some horse-trading always happens and it's not uncommon for a few people to be allowed to defect when it is known that they will not affect the final vote. Frankly I'm surprised it wasn't more.
WSJ reported that the real fight over the votes was about the fight for senate control in the 2020 election. Pierre Delecto helped the dems in the advertising war for the senate.

Carpetbagging opportunist similar to Hillary.
Utah is the mothership. Mitt's father was governor of Michigan, Mitt, Massachusetts, his grandfather lived in Mexico...
...all are welcome back to Utah because once an insular group has declared itself persecuted, any loyal member of that group is A-OK to the group members....and there are plenty in Utah. They were "carpetbaggers" in Michigan and Massachusetts. They are "native sons", more importantly "one of us" in Utah.
Honestly, this "how did he get elected in Utah" question befuddles me as it seems obvious.
A Utah state legislator has already filed a bill to begin the process of recalling Romney. I think he may just flip parties if his constituents do not watch him close. I despise Romney because he had three good options if he wanted to run for senate. He could have manned up and fought a real fight and taken a dem seat away in Massachusetts, he could have manned up and fought a good fight to take away a dem seat in Michigan, and probably could with Trump support, but no, he takes a true conservative seat from Utah and makes it a moderate seat weakening the republican party not strengthening it.
