The endorsements are coming in very quickly.

Quote:
Former U.S. Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum on Tuesday endorsed Donald Trump for president, saying he was swayed by Trump's list of possible Supreme Court nominees.

Santorum, who dropped out of the presidential race in February and threw his support to Senator Marco Rubio, told Fox News: "The most important issue is preserving the Constitution of this country and a liberal Supreme Court will destroy it."

How much value is there to an endorsement from a guy who couldn't even get 2000 votes in Iowa before dropping out?

Well he cleaned up in the states that Cruz won in 2012. He panders well to the religious conservatives.

I love that all of Mr. Trump's new Republican "endorsements" are all along the lines of, "The other general elections options would be worse." Never warm and fuzzy about Mr. Trump's deity-like qualities.

Yet the Trump fans are ecstatic . . . . guys, Republicans are SUPPOSED to endorse any and all Republican presidential nominee; the fact that many are still withholding endorsement tells you everything you need to know.

An enthusiastic vote counts the same as a reluctant vote.

Your mom is full of good advice.

I was talking to your ___in the bar one night. She said, "If you lost a few pounds, had a shave and got your hair cut, you'd look all right.”
I said, “If I did that, I'd be talking to your friends over there instead of you.”

Maybe, but certainly not a reluctant endorsement.
