Reporting from Washington— House Speaker John A. Boehner endorsed GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney in the latest nod from the Republican establishment for the party's presumed front-runner.
For months Boehner had steered clear of signaling a preference in the belabored GOP primary race, particularly because of his shared time -- and differences -- in the House with then-Speaker Newt Gingrich. He also has been selected to be convention chairman.

AWW It’s a CRYIN’ Shame! PUSSY!
Now the cronyism can begin.
I could care less who this sissy endorses. I am against the RINO elitist establishment. I will not vote for RINO Romney.
Thank you Bonehead!
I am shocked..
No really..
I am...
I thought he would have done it back when Mitt announced.
Boy, who saw this coming!/sarcasm tag
Well LEX does not endorse Romney nor will I EVER vote for him...tired of establishment picking my Presidential canidate.
I can support GOP for Senate here in Florida and for congress
Freegards LEX
SAVE US FROM THE NATIONAL WHIG PARTY!( republicans)
I am a little shocked by this endorsement. I had already thought this stooge was on the Milt bandwagon already. Boner outlasted Paul Ryan, Jim DeMint and Herman Cain in backing him. This has to be the most intestinal fortitude that this dope has shown in his whole life by endorsing so late.
Someone who holds an office such as Speaker of The House refains from endorsing until the very last minute. It is expected. It is like a second term President not endorsing. The prior one did endorse early, but that was all about queen bee cat fighting stuff. So when the Speaker endorses, the fat lady is singing.
The thought of a wilard presidency must have them all licking their chops!
Boner comes out of the closet when it’s safe. Sees his shadow and caves.
Wow, I’m just so blown away by this revelation!
Two peas in a pod.
Don’t worry Mitch, your chance to endorse RINO Romney is coming soon.
Um, the fat lady finished singing awhile ago. She's eaten the last of the snacks from the buffet table, smoked a cigarette, went home, and has been safely nestled in her comfy chair watching ancient re-runs of General Hospital.
Much as I like Newt, he is now reduced to renting out his donor list and harping about Fox News. That isn't a real campaign, it's just a guy out having some fun and trying to hold on to the limelight for as long as humanly possible - all while a few hearty campaign contributors throw in a few bucks more to help pay down his 4.5 million dollar debt.
You are correct, Boehner is endorsing now because the campaign is effectively over and he doesn't have to worry about stepping on anyone's toes.
Anyone that that pansy arse would support is someone I wouldn’t.
I want to see someone who is a Tea Party Member as Speaker they would have heads rolling!!!
I don’t think my Congressman, Alan Nunnelee MS-01 (RR), has endorsed Romney yet but I expect it. He’s Boehner’s buddy voted FOR the debt ceiling increase and the engine for the F-35 that the military neither needed or wanted but it would have been built in a GE plant next to Boehner’s district. Now Congressman has borrowed from Newt in the newsletter I got today he says we should cut spending down to the level of tax revenues and not raise tax levels to spending. This is how he talks, NOT how he votes.
(Ted Kennedy would have), Joe Lieberman, Hillary and Bill, Levin, and all the Federalites and bureaucrats, are all so proud of you now John. Way to go.
Big Mandate-Mitt and all the Federalites, all lined up now for the Big Take. MandateMassachusetts is SOOOO representative of “Us” all.
Can’t let the Undocumented one take you with him into the muddy channel water, with the rest of us paying for it.
