Boot from Ubuntu CD.
Select "Custom partition setup"
Delete all Linux Mint Partitions. Remember not to touch the windows partitions.
Create 3 new partitions (Swap,Home,Root) or just 1 if it doesn't matter to you.
Proceed with the installation. Ubuntu will take care of the boot loader :)

When you boot from Ubuntu, during Disk partitioning it automatically detect Mint & give to option to delete Mint & install Ubuntu over it.
