Relax.

All of the remaining candidates are or were “pro amnesty.” The lone exception is Romney, who SAYS he’s against it (hence how he got the Tancredo endorsement) but has a record of saying just about anything to get elected and his record just doesn’t jibe.

As much as I hate Huckabee, Hunter has respect for other people. To not endorse a candidate (virtually every Congressman does) would have been an insult beneath his manners. I’m guessing he went with his fellow pro-life Baptist FairTax supporter in making this decision. Not entirely all that surprising, if somewhat disappointing.

I disagree. "Manners" should not take precedence over principles. Fred dropped out, yet hasn't endorsed anyone. If there's nobody worth endorsing, it would be bad "manners" to do it anyway, for no reason except because it is expected. Not to mention against one's principles.
