BERLIN, N.H. ? After the support ? but not an endorsement ? from George H.W. Bush on Thursday, Mitt Romney received a call from the former president while traveling between stops on his New Hampshire bus tour.
Romney said he spoke with the elder Bush for several minutes.
Continue Reading?I am very encouraged of the support of President Bush for my campaign. Obviously, you can tell there is growing momentum for this effort in New Hampshire and across the country,? the former Massachusetts governor told reporters here.
Bush, who?s known Romney for years, told the Houston Chronicle, ?I think Romney is the best choice for us,? calling him ?the most electable.?
Bush told the Chronicle he was stopping short of an official endorsement ?for no particular reason.?
But that was good enough, Romney said.
?I had the opportunity to chat with the president this afternoon. I wished him a Merry Christmas and he did the same to me. I thanked him for his support, his leadership, his heroic life and his friendship,? Romney said. ?I must admit, this is much more important to me personally than even politically.?
Romney said he was taken by surprise by Bush?s support.
?I had no idea that was coming,? he added as he walked away, heading to knock on doors of Berlin homes.
