The Biden-Bloomberg Golf Game (POLITCO)

Mike Bloomberg, who was wooed earlier today by Mitt Romney for an endorsement, also got in a round of golf last Friday with Vice President Joe Biden, sources told POLITICO.

The pair was played at a course somewhere in the Washington area, the sources said.

Bloomberg played golf with President Obama in 2010 and recently had lunch with him at the White House.

The political independent is considering an endorsement in the race and has privately been critical of Obama over financial policies. Romney, however, tracks further right than the mayor on social issues.

* An earlier version of this post said Leon Panetta was part of the group. He was not.
