Be interesting if Romney can start securing a bunch of endorsements and close this deal up. Will Palin go for Gingrich and really mess things up.

He already has (at least) Chris Christie and Nicki Haley, two governors. That's a good start.

He's still waiting to hear from Donald Trump, who told Barbara Walters a few days ago that his endorsement will be HUGE! And it will seal the nomination for whoever gets it. OK.

Like Coach from Survivor, I prayed on this decision for hours.

I like Newt and think that the smartest guy in the room has some great ideas. Hopefully Romney can harness some of that somewhere in his administration.

Ron Paul. Nope, can't do it. Pretending like the rest of the world does not exist is not a foreign policy imo

Go Mitt Go!
This kinda settling is how we got ****ed with Bush for 4 extra years. Better to run with someone who at least some people like, imo.
