Romney to Arrive in Tampa Tuesday

By ASHLEY PARKER

TAMPA, Fla. - The Republican National Convention will be welcoming its newest- and most high profile - guest Tuesday: Mitt Romney himself.

Mr. Romney was originally scheduled to arrive in Tampa at least a day later as he prepares to accept his party's nomination Thursday with a speech meant to re-introduce himself to the nation. But his campaign decided to send him two days early amid uncertainty about the convention schedule because of Tropical Storm Isaac.

The ostensible reason: two watch his wife, Ann, deliver her speech Tuesday evening.

No word on what else Mr. Romney will do while in town.
