The non-endorsement is good news in a week of bad news.

I really, really wanted to listen to that conference call, but with a city council meeting Monday night at which the impeachment of our mayor was on the agenda, there's just no way I could do that.

Let's hope Santorum decides to hold off on an endorsement until/unless Romney reaches the magic number to get a majority of delegates. I can't expect him to reject the Republican nominee unless he's prepared to leave the Republican Party, which is extremely unlikely — only people like Mitt Romney's father can do that in 1964 with Goldwater and get away with it — but we can ask him not to endorse Romney now.

“The non-endorsement is good news in a week of bad news.
I really, really wanted to listen to that conference call, but with a city council meeting Monday night at which the impeachment of our mayor was on the agenda, there’s just no way I could do that.

Let’s hope Santorum decides to hold off on an endorsement until/unless Romney reaches the magic number to get a majority of delegates.

If Santorum endorses Romney -before- the nomination, it would be a repeat of the Specter over Toomey endorsement and he would be -finished- with conservatives. That would end it all.

The fact that Etch a Sketch’s campaign is trying to court Santorum for an endorsement demonstrates that there is concern as to whether Romney will reach 1144.
