The Boston Herald reported Monday that Mitt Romney’s son Tagg is considering running in the Massachusetts special election to fill John Kerry’s Senate seat. The right-of-center newspaper appears to be actually encouraging Romney to run, writing that he could be a “shining knight to crestfallen Republicans” in the state. The Herald added:
Tagg Romney, who has been fairly silent on Twitter since his father’s loss in November, seems to be bolstering his profile. He even posted a pic on Saturday of his two sons getting a haircut at Frank’s Barbershop in Belmont, a neighborhood staple.
Update (11:31 a.m. ET):
Sources tell ABC News that Tagg Romney won’t walk away from his company at this time to run in the special election.
