When I heard the rumors this morning that Donald Trump was about to endorse Newt Gingrich, I was somewhat relieved for Mitt Romney. First, I should say I was a little surprised, that anyone would care who Trump, originally known as a businessman but these days more for being a celebrity, would endorse. But my relief was centered around the fact that lately crazy shallow minded hypocrites like Herman Cain are enthusiastically endorsing Newt. I thought it would bode well for Romney to have the hard core conservatives line up behind Newt...thereby keeping Romney attractive to the moderates.
