That’s odd. Months ago, Paul Ryan was not going to endorse ANYONE because he was asked to fundraise for the nominee regardless of who that person was.

The GOPe is in panic mode now. I have not seen a rush like this to endorse ever. I am thinking the they all have clued in that Milt is a total loser and they are all going to have to drag his dead ass across the finish line.

If there is to be any hope of a brokered convention (which could lead to Newt) or any hope of stopping Mittens, we need to stop the Reverend Rick and Little Ricky crap. He is far from perfect (and is about my 5th choice) but harping on his every stumble and old endorsements only helps Mittens.

Paul Ryan should be ashamed in doing this.

They want the same old system. 57 layers of government

intrusion. Is there anyone left, with principles.

Yes, you are correct. Paul Ryan was adamant that he could not endorse anyone given his position within the party. Suddenly, he’s following the herd and endorsing Romney.

Don’t know why there’d be a rush now. Mitt has 6 weeks coming up with about 400 delegates in big, blue states that are going to vote for him short of him getting up and admitting he’s the Antichrist live on the air. More likely these are people who have now decided Mitt is inevitable and want to get some leverage over him. The 42-10 blowout in Illinois pretty much sealed Romney as the nominee short of some extraordinary circumstances. If he’s winning that big in that type of state, then we can see from the upcoming list that he’s on his way to winning the nomination outright. I will gladly be voting against him in Pennsylvania as everyone should. Even if I knew the GOP was going to get their pick, I want them to know there is a protest vote. There just aren’t going to be enough of us to stop him.

Agreed.

The megalomaniac loser lawyer from PA and Gingrich both need to stay in to keep that degenerate scumbag coward from a family of degenerate scumbag cowards MYTH ROMNEY from buying the nomination.

And any GOP Washingtonian professional politician that endorses the Bishop from Planet Kolob is in for a world of hurt.

Rubio is not the man people think they know...he always was a Jeb Bushie/Romney guy that can speak eloquently

Rubio was backing SOPA too until the protests heated up.

Rubio is not the man people think they know.

Ditto Jindal and really many, many others
