Romney announced 22 US Representatives supporting him today; a few were previously announced. John McCain has been wrapping up the lion's share, particularly in the South -- note the absence on Romney's list of anyone from the key early-primary state of South Carolina; he also has just two from Florida, despite the rumored support of Jeb Bush. More curious, he's got neither of Utah's Republican congressmen. Here's the full list:

- Representative Jim McCrery (R-LA), House Congressional Liaison
