Jennifer Rubin: Romney’s first order of business in the Senate

Sen.-elect Mitt Romney, R-Utah, we presume, didn't wade back into politics, run a Senate campaign and agree to serve for six years just to go-along to get-along in a body devoid of leadership. He's a former governor, a former presidential nominee, a successful businessman and the savior of the Salt Lake Olympics, for goodness sake. He has heft, experience and the respect of his peers. If he simply becomes another keep-our-head-down Republican, he'll be no different than the other GOP placeholders who think their job is to do what President Donald Trump and/or Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.
