I was curious about this the other day so I checked the Google news archives on when he came out to support Romney. It was June-July 2008, after most of the primaries were over and only a couple left. At this time the choices were down to Romney, McCain, Paul and Huckabee.
It would be a lose, lose, lose, lose situation if you wanted to hang it on the guy. No matter who he supported, folks would damn him for supporting a liberal.

Info is kinda hard to find on the actual date but here is a FR thread on 2/3/08 where it is claimed Cain endorsed Romney. However that thread has now been scrubbed off the AJC website.
