Actually, many conservatives were at an election night Party hosted by Congressman Mike Pompeo.

There were lots of cheers as the conservatives won.

All of the elected Republican Conservatives in this State are supporting ROMNEY.

ALL OF THEM!

There were Romney stickers on the tables at this election night party.

Was it deliberate that you made it sound like you were simply an observer of the conservative celebrations?

Two conservatives candidates (both of whom won on Tuesday) told me essentially the same thing. They'll both be listed as supporting Romney but both feel that they have no choice, otherwise, they won't get cooperation from the state party that they need in their fall campaigns. That's the way the game works. One knows from experience since he angered the party establishment and suffered the consequences - his primary opponent was coaxed into the race by party regulars to silence this "trouble-maker". Each has told me that he will not personally vote for Romney - as one told me - the party bosses can't watch me vote.

In your response to Diogenesis, you listed a bunch of conservatives who have endorsed Romney. What would you expect? All of the these people have an interest in maintaining political viability. They can't get too far off the reservation.
