“He’s all but doomed now. Senator John McCain will beat him in New Hampshire, probably by a lot, and Romney’s media coverage will evaporate and his candidacy will consequently die.”
Whom does he endorse? More importantly, who benefits from his supporters?
I think everyone benefits from his supporters but primarily Thompson and McCain. Mitt supporters just aren’t really compatible with Huckabee. I do think they are more practical than Huckabee supporters would be. Someone needs to deconstruct Huckabee. Rush has tried to do it gently but he has failed because he isn’t attacking in the right weak spot.
He needs to attack Huckabee’s Baptist credentials because that is where he is getting his core support. He is not getting it because of his policy ideas.
I don’t think Romney will endorse anyone.
He’s had really nasty, personal battles with just about everyone. And he can’t very well endorse anyone that he’s called a liberal. So taking both of these points into consideration, that leaves just Fred, Ron Paul, and None of the Above.
