Cory Gardner Gets Some "RomneyCare"

Interesting sidenote from Politico’s Kasie Hunt–will Cory Gardner requite the love?

Building good will on the Hill for his expected White House run, Mitt Romney is sending more cash to congressional Republicans.

Romney’s Free and Strong America PAC sent $83,500 to 40 members of Congress Tuesday, for a total of $208,000 sent to lawmakers’ campaigns this year…

The 38 House members who received contributions for Romney are largely those who sit in competitive districts and will have to defend their seats in 2012. Michigan Rep. Dan Benishek, Colorado Rep. Cory Gardner, New York Rep. Michael Grimm, South Dakota Rep. Kristi Noem, New Mexico Rep. Steve Pearce and Michigan Rep. Tim Walberg all got checks.
