If Mitt Romney Can Campaign for Scott, Why Can't McCollum?

As our Kevin Derby reports here, Mitt Romney is coming to Florida to campaign for GOP gubernatorial candidate Rick Scott. So, why is Bill McCollum still sulking?

Romney, who endorsed the attorney general in the primary, is doing his bit for Republican unity. Similarly, Mike Huckabee, another McCollum endorser, is expected to jump on the Scott bandwagon.

It will be interesting to hear how Romney and Scott finesse their obvious differences on health care. As governor of Massachusetts, Romney pushed through a state-mandated health plan that was the forerunner to Obamacare. Scott, a former heath-care executive, is strictly a free-market guy.

With Romney and Scott finding common ground, McCollum's prolonged sideline snit looks all the more juvenile.
