By unconventional, he probably means he’ll endorse an idea or something like that and not any of the specific candidates.

He has said some negative things about all of them - not much, but some - except Newt. Not sure that is a hint though.

“He’s timing it for maximum impact”

I like Cain, but his announcement whenever he makes it will have ZERO impact.

This needs to be made clear - Santorum endorsed Romney in 2008 too.

Seems kinda late for an endorsement for SC.

The DeMint endorsement is the big one, will see what he does.

Exactly. He's already given a strong hint of just what type of movement he is going to launch on the Hannity show.

Maybe he’ll endorse Buddy Roemer.

I really wish Cain wouldn’t drag this out into petty dramatics. Why not just make an endorsement and move on? He should’ve done this a month+ ago.

I think he might try to endorse himself.

Ok, but DeMint endorsed Romney in 2007.

Endorsements, really, are meaningless. It's all about ego.

DeMint endorsed Romney in 2008, too. Were you aware of that?

Some of the comments seem to imply he’ll endorse Sarah Palin.

I was thinking he would endorse 9-9-9.

I just watched the entire video interview, and I’m even more convinced now that he will NOT endorse any candidate. Which is a tease that will backfire on him I think.

And FTR, his “brilliant” interviewers never even had the notion cross their minds that he was playing them. Sheesh.

I think you could be correct about that.
