I usually don't spend much time in Politics, nor do I start threads when I'm in here. But I heard about something today that I'm actually interested in hearing opinions about!
So, Mitt moved to La Jolla, California.
Here are some photos of the $12 million estate from the

Is Romney Looking To Get Mitts On The Statehouse?
BOSTON (AP) ― Failed Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney may be heading to California.
A spokesman says the former Massachusetts governor has reached a deal to buy a home in La Jolla and will close on it this month.
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is term-limited and must leave office after 2010 but a spokesman for Romney says politics is not the reason Romney is buying in California.
The spokesman says Romney has family in the state -- one son lives near San Diego -- and his wife likes to ride horses here.
Romney also owns homes in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Utah.

Why do you think he decided to move? Do you think Governator will run as VP alongside McCain or Obama, leaving an opening for a new governor in the golden state? Or do you think that he's just planning on having a relaxing, sunny retirement on the beach among family, and away from the political chaos of New England?
I'm thinking he's too young to think about retiring. I suppose the housing market is so bad that maybe he's thinking "It's now or never if I'm going to buy my dream home in California", but then again I don't think this millions-of-dollars-sector of the market has been hit terribly hard.
