Swooping in: Romney descends on Capitol next week

Politico:

Former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney is slated to offer House Republicans his policy prescriptions for the ailing economy at a hearing next week to discuss the pending stimulus package.

The former Massachusetts governor is scheduled to appear at a hearing next Thursday organized by party Whip Eric Cantor (Va.), where Republicans will outline their policy proposals for a massive economic stimulus bill that could exceed $800 billion.

(Ea.) Why the visit?

Earlier this week, Obama challenged GOP leaders on Capitol Hill to offer their own suggestions for the recovery package. The Republican hearing is a direct response to Obama, one aide said.

Cantor seems pretty serious about this whole Become an Effective Organizer and Leader thing.
