TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney says Connie Mack IV is his choice in Florida's GOP primary race for the U.S. Senate.
Romney announced Wednesday his endorsement of Mack, a congressman from Fort Myers, over former Sen. George LeMieux.
It's rare for presidential candidates to thrust themselves into primary races for other offices, but Romney said Mack is a friend. In a statement, the former Massachusetts governor also said Mack is a strong conservative who would oppose the "borrow and spend ways of Washington."
The Republican nominee will face incumbent Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson in November. A spokeswoman for LeMieux declined comment.
Mack said in a statement that he was humbled by Romney's endorsement and they would work together to unseat Nelson and President Barack Obama.
