Rick Perry Endorses Mitt Romney

Texas Gov. Rick Perry originally endorsed Newt Gingrich as the top candidate after dropping out of the Republican presidential race.

But with Gingrich set to quit the campaign trail, Perry on Wednesday evening gave his support to the probable nominee, Mitt Romney.

"Mitt Romney has earned the Republican presidential nomination through hard work, a strong organization, and [a] disciplined message of restoring America after nearly four years of failed job-killing policies from President [Barack] Obama and his administration," Perry said in a statement provided to FOX News Channel.

"So today I join the many conservative Republicans across the nation in endorsing Mitt Romney for president and pledge to him, my constituents and the Republican Party that I will continue to work hard to help defeat President Obama.

Don't kid yourself. Everyone with a future in Republican politics will be endorsing their party's selection for presidential nominee. That's the way the game is played.

Perry waited until Gingrich dropped out before endorsing Romney. Nothing to be ashamed of.

By Tampa every GOP officeholder past or present will have endorsed Romney.

That is just how it is given that Obama is so awful.

Exactly. Palin, Newt, Santorum, Bachmann, and every other influential Republican will be endorsing, supporting and campaigning for him as well. That is kind of the point of a political party. Those that can't support the nominee now generally have no future within the party going forward.

Ya see, that's the whole problem...It's no longer a game, or business as usual.

The political insiders and their futures, are not the issue. That is what's left America nearly dead on the floor.

We need a second party.

When Mitt lost California four years ago, he immediately endorsed John McCain. That is how it works. If you go out honorably, maybe you can take it all away in four years like Mitt has done this time around.
