It’s not quite an endorsement in the literal sense, but when someone donates out of her own pocket to a candidate’s campaign and then defends him in the media, there’s not much nuance in that position. Christine O’Donnell lashed out at conservative critics of Mitt Romney after making a $250 donation to his campaign, and told ABC News that she might decide to max out her personal contribution. As for her endorsement, O’Donnell says she’s “70 percent” behind Romney at the moment:
Christine O’Donnell, the former Republican Senate candidate and a Tea Party favorite during the 2010 election, said in an exclusive interview with ABC News that she has not only given money to presidential candidate Mitt Romney but also says she doesn’t think he is getting a “getting a fair shake” from those within her own movement. …
“It’s politics of personal destruction aimed at our own and it’s got to stop,” she added. “Right now a lawn gnome could beat Obama in 2012, so, yes, we can be picky, but not nasty or malicious. If we don’t stop the Republican cannibalism we’re simply turning this election over to the Democrats, who certainly don’t deserve it.”

“Right now a lawn gnome could beat Obama in 2012, so, yes, we can be picky" Which is one of the many reasons why we shouldn't let a RINO like Romney get anywhere near the nomination.

Work with me on this one, this endorsement is actually damaging to Romney, Christine is pretty much like a toxic waste dump in the political world and to voters...so I say go for it Christine, how about going on the LSM shows like Maher as a Romney spokesman???

I hope some of her ‘bad luck’ rubs off on Romney.
(not really a knock on her. I still harbor a certain liking for the plucky O’Donnell. But throwing in with Romney is a bad, bad move. I hope it’s not portending that she’s decided to ditch the Tea Party and cozy up to the GOP elites, expecting some kind of reward or stamp-of-approval from them)
