Rick Santorum endorsed Mitt Romney on Laura Ingraham's show moments ago.
Santorum is widely admired by conservatives, and his passionate declaration fro Romney as well as his blunt assessment of the fact that Mike Huckabee cannot win is a very good development for Romney's campaign to consolidate the conservative vote across the Super Tuesday states and beyond.
So, where's Newt? And every other high profile conservative? It seems to me that at this time of choosing, you should either be for McCain or Romney and not on the sidelnes. If ideas matter, these two candidates have very different ideas and very different agendas. To sit it out is like sitting out the Ford-Reagan campaign in 1976. Rick Santorum saw and understood this and is to be applauded for setting an example for other conservatives.
