Romney said. "If I were president, I wouldn't be looking to spend ten days on Martha's Vineyard."

But, as it turns out, the Republican presidential candidate will be spending one day there -- at the very time Obama is on Martha's Vineyard.

Romney will hold a fundraiser on the Vineyard on Aug. 27, towards the end of the president's stay. The Boston Herald reports the $2,500-per-person affair will be held "just across the island" from where the Obamas are staying, and comes at the tail end of a fundraising swing through some of the "tonier" summer communities of the Bay State, including Nantucket and Osterville, on Cape Cod.
