Paul Ryan huddles with Mitt Romney, Scott Walker at Palm Beach retreat
By Alex Isenstadt
Paul Ryan is hosting a fundraising retreat in Palm Beach, Florida this week that is drawing a number of major donors — in addition to the House speaker’s 2012 running mate.
Mitt Romney was among those who addressed the confab on Thursday, according to two sources present. Also speaking were two former 2016 GOP contenders, Scott Walker and Lindsey Graham. The group gathered at the posh Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa.
Unlike his predecessor John Boehner, Ryan is not known for his prodigious fundraising skills. But he is taking steps to expand his network. The new House speaker recently tapped Spencer Zwick, a longtime Romney confidant, to help oversee his fundraising operation.
