(CNN) John Bolton, the former U.S. permanent representative to the United Nations, is set to endorse presidential candidate Mitt Romney, a source close to Romneys presidential campaign said Wednesday.
Bolton served in the administrations of former Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush before former President George W. Bush appointed him the U.N. role.

” We the people are screwed, thats whats going on. “
Maybe not. Why would the Establishment be so doubling down on the Cram Down of Romney, if they weren’t plenty nervous.
Mitt has some kind of RiNO mojo!
That or he’s blackmailing everyone somehow...
Mistake, Mitt is not going to win, Bain is going to take him down. Perry double down on Bain and Newt is pissed.
Well, Mr. Ambassador, you’ve just gone way down from that pedestal I had you on. This now goes on your record, sir.
Blue bloods sticking together...no surprise
We still have the Poison Pill...
Just need to get the Senate locked up first.
Not quite there yet, personally, but it’s worth putting on the table I think.
If our side had consolidated into one candidate Romney would be in big trouble.
We'll see what SC brings. Some think we can wait and see beyond SC and beyond Florida. They are only looking at it by voting trends. But as time goes by the endorsements and commitments to donate from big donors are made to the present front runner and assumed winner of the nomination.
As those endorsements happen and the money comes in it's transferred into more ads. The more ads, the more exposure the more power.
Perry could have passed on his support. There's no way he can win. Maybe Perry and Romney have some sort of secret deal.
So, I guess the only question remaining is do I put my head up my ass and vote for Mitt, or do I kiss my ass goodbye?
Another one I have lost total respect for...WOW...I didn’t see this one coming.
They are in full court press mode, and yes they are nervous. Paul is getting traction, and Paul is their worst night mare. So they want to get this deal done and quickly. Paul has the legs to go all the way and that scares team Mitt.
I am all in for Perry getting noisy. Good for him, and good for Newt! After all, noise is what I like so much about Newt. Perry needs a signature and NOISE would make a nice one. Let ‘em ALL have it in DC! Let the Governor of South Carolina have it! Let FOX NEWS have it! Let these one-by-one’s ALL have it, who are making promissory deposits off Romney.
The problem is none of the alternatives really stand out against the others, they all have tremendous flaws, while they do have good points as well.
Just damn...

The problem is Palin folded.
The worst part of it, is that Palin folded, it would seem, because ROMNEY’S SMEARS WORKED.
Why Palin would allow him this victory, eludes me.
I imagine I’m not alone, confounded about this.
I think we’ll get to a majority, perhaps a super majority.
The Establishment never counted on Ron Paul running third party INSIDE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, which he is.
If they could, the Establishment would use Paul against us and maybe they ARE. But, why can’t the risk run both ways?
Can’t we hold Paul over THEIR head, if they don’t cut Romney loose and get with the conservative race going on out there? Let these three conservatives be free to run their race and let the Establishment BACK OFF, instead of us, Every. Single. Time!
We have three conservatives. Let them run their race
Compared to Romney and Obama those flaws aren't so tremendous to me. I'll take Newt's flaws or Santorum's flaws or Perry's flaws over Romney's anytime.
Romney's already starting to morph into his left of center candidacy before our eyes. He's getting ready to pander to the left.
That's Romney. He panders the conservatives until he knows he's got their vote. Then he panders the left. After he wins the election he panders the left much more than the conservatives. By re-election time he puts the conservative hat back on and blames his liberal actions on his inability to get things done because of the liberals in Congress. That's Romney in a nutshell.
agreed. Screw Mitt.
Wow! It took 3 posts until the RINO label showed up. So if Bolton is a RINO then who isn’t?
