Mitt Romney visits Rob Portman's 'haunted' hotel

      LEBANON, Ohio -- Mitt Romney joined a long list of presidential aspirants to visit the Golden Lamb Inn on Saturday, a historic hotel owned by Ohio Republican Sen. Rob Portman that has long been rumored to be haunted by ghosts.

       

       

       

      Built in 1803, the site is the oldest hotel in the state. At least three people have died on the property, and locals say some of them never really left. A recent Yahoo News ghost-hunting expedition at the hotel found it to be creepy and mysterious after midnight and quite possibly a genuine host of the supernatural.

       
       
       

      Outside the hotel Saturday evening, about 10,000 people gathered to catch a glimpse of Romney. An Ohio state flag hung from the roof of the hotel, where three armed guards stood watch over the crowd. Romney stood on a stage set up in the street with Portman, who touted the business, but didn't mention rumors of ghosts inside.

       
       
       

      "So much of the spirit of America and the history of America has come through these doors," Portman said before he introduced Romney, who went on to give a version of his stump speech.

       
       

      After shaking hands and taking pictures with supporters, Romney joined Portman for a tour of the hotel. Many of the rooms in the Golden Lamb are named after past presidents--12 presidents in all have visited or stayed at the hotel. Romney stopped by the John Quincy Adams room, where he had an exchange with Portman about the ghost of John Quincy Adams.

      Per the pool report:

      Romney: "Isn't that something. Oh, isn't that something. John Quincy — about the same height as his dad, looks like. [At this point, Romney seemed to be looking at a picture of the two men.] Isn't that something. It's wonderful."

      A print pooler asked Romney if he was scared of ghosts.

      Romney: "John Quincy's ghost, that would be helpful, I'm afraid. But his dad, John Adams, that's certainly one of my very favorite presidents. Quite a guy. That wonderful, wonderful book by David McCullough about this life. I've said this many times before, but reading that, when I turned the last page, I just welled up with tears. You feel like you're losing a member of the family. Extraordinary man, extraordinary marriage — he and Abigail. Just a wonderful couple. ...Wow, isn't this something."

      Jane Portman: "This is great. We can't wait to have Mitt Romney room in here."

      Portman: "We're going to kick one Massachusetts guy out for another one."

      Romney: "Oh [inaudible] John Quincy. Isn't that something."

      Romney, turned to the bed in the room

      Romney: "John Quincy's bed. You don't imagine he was here. How many presidents?"

      Portman: "This is 1803."

      Romney: "But how many presidents?"

      Portman: "Twelve."

      Romney: "He calls it the Golden Lamb, but I think when you look at the prices you'll determine it's the Golden Fleece…. Actually, it's a modest price point —I mean this like $130 a night? — for history!"

      Portman: "This is about $140, I think, $150."

      During their conversation, Portman pointed to Reuters reporter Sam Youngman, who was in earshot.

      "No more ghost stories," Portman said.
