SALT LAKE CITY — A Boston political commentator has some thoughts about what Utahns could see from his old governor and their new U.S. senator.

WGBH News columnist David S. Bernstein wrote a column Wednesday titled, "Dear Utah … What To Expect When You're Expecting Mitt Romney."

"Been there, done that, as they say," he wrote. "This is a friendly letter from Massachusetts — until this week, the only jurisdiction to ever elect Romney to any office."

Massachusetts voters also rejected Romney once in his bid to unseat Sen. Ted Kennedy in 1994.

Romney evened his election record Tuesday to 2-2, coasting to victory in Utah over Democratic Salt Lake County Councilwoman Jenny Wilson. He said he was "humbled" by the support and vowed to represent the state with dignity, integrity and "in a manner that will make you proud."

The Republican senator-elect will attend freshman orientation in Washington next week.

Well I certainly hope he doesn't put the dog on the top of the wagon when he drives out to DC to start his new job.
