On CNN’s State of the Union, Republican congressman Jason Chaffetz said Mitt Romney solicited his input as Romney is gearing up for another presidential campaign.

“He wanted some advice and input, but [said] the rumors that were out there were true,” Chaffetz said. “I think he’s very seriously considering it.”

Chaffetz said he thinks Romney has three advantages over other potential candidates: he’s been vetted, he’s been proven right on domestic and foreign-policy issues, and he can raise the $1 billion needed to defeat Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.
