Oh... The Cain endorsement is essentially meaningless. Whatever political capital he had has long since evaporated. The only endorsement that might have an impact at this point might be Palin’s and Santorum’s should he get wise and gets out. What Santorum is up to at this point is hard to discern. It’s hard to imagine that he’s in this to help Romney. But then again nothing would surprise.

If Romney wins the nomination, I sit this one. No way in hell I vote for liberals and I don’t care what party they belong to. The GOP has merged with the democrats if this liberal ass manages to buy the nomination. How anyone can not see through this fake and fraud is beyond me. McCain was crammed down our throats and he lost, and the exact same thing will happen again. To hell with Mitt Romney and the horse he rode in on.

Unfortunately, Palin’s ‘net worth’ isn’t that much greater than Cain’s.

I think Santorum is still in at this point to help keep the conservative issues and especially the conservative social issues in view.

I think he believes that if he gets out too early, the issues and campaigns will quickly shift to, “I’m a fiscal conservative but a social liberal” two statements that would be essentially false coming from Gingrich and Romney.

I think the Cain endorsement is meaningless, too...except that Cain was popular with the Cuban community, so maybe it will pay off to some measure. The endorsement that would help would be that of Rubio, but Rubio is clearly not going to support Gingrich (which I think is a big mistake for Rubio) so that’s out.

The Tea Party did a lot to get votes for Rubio, but I guess even his brief stint in DC has been enough to turn him into Establishment GOP.

I’m not sure what his game is but Gingrich should offer Santorum the VP spot in exchange for Rick dropping out.

I don’t think Santorum could do Newt any damage but he might help conservatives feel more comfortable with Newt heading the GOP ticket.

Cain needed to endorse Newt 2 weeks ago. Cain is a joke now and I agree the people who were going to vote for him moved on to Santorum and Newt anyway.

Bachmann on the other hand...where is her endorsement? Or is she waiting for a clear winner to come out of Florida? She too needed to drop an endorsement.
