Romney to formally announce run for President in NH on June 2

MANCHESTER _ Emphasizing the importance of the first-in-the-nation primary state to his campaign, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney will formally announce his candidacy for President in New Hampshire next Thursday, June 2.

UnionLeader.com has learned that a noontime barbecue at GOP stalwart Doug and Stella Scamman's Bittersweet Farm in Stratham will be the venue for the Romney announcement. Both Scammans are former New Hampshire House members; Doug Scamman is a former Speaker of the House.

While other candidates have made their formal announcements elsewhere, Romney will be the first of the 2012 cycle to announce in the Granite State.

The news was first reported on UnionLeader.com on Thursday night.

It's the second major Romney announcement based in New Hampshire. He recorded a video of his April announcement of the formation of a presidential exploratory committee at Cowell Stadium on the campus of the University of New Hampshire in Durham.

Romney has long been ramping up to the June 2 formal announcement. After finishing second to John McCain in the 2008 primary and then dropping out of the race shortly thereafter, he formed the Free and Strong America PAC to distribute fundraising proceeds to GOP candidates in key states, including New Hampshire in 2009 and especially during the 2010 mid-term election campaign.

Why mention that he is a Mormon? A candidate's religion (or lack thereof) is irrelevant.

Or is that a deciding factor for you? If so, it's rather discriminatory of you.

Yay! It's nice to see a pro-gay, pro-universal health care candidate on the GOP ticket.
