According to the newest rumors, Bachmann is set to endorse Mitt today, as Romney flies to Minnesota today for a rally with Gov. Pawlenty.

An establishment pol at last?

Oh wait, she always was, even though certifiably mentally unfit.

Or support for a leadership position in the caucus.  Having a presidential patron can help.

Romney can have all the troll (opportunist) endorsements, Newt doesn't need them.

Of course he doesn't. Since he himself is an opportunist troll, it would seem redundant.

False on both accounts. If Newt was an opportunist, he would have dropped out by now and supported Willard to get some sort of job out of him. If Newt was a troll, that would imply that he isn't a serious candidate, which judging by national polls showing him leading, as well as his overwhelming victory in my own state awhile back, Gingrich is quite clearly a serious contender.

Oh, I forgot, Romney supporters don't believe in democracy. To them, this process is just a coronation process, and Newt and Santorum are merely trolls.

I've never said Santorum is a troll, or said Newt wasn't a serious contender. Why would Newt drop out for a cabinent position when he could be president? The man is on a power trip, it's all he wants. It would make no sense for him to drop out now at all.

Or maybe her campaign debt is now unpayable without a helping hand.

Why would this be an asset to the Romney campaign?!

No one should be surprised by this. The only reason Perry endorsed Newt is because his feelings were hurt. Cain did, but then bizarrely also endorsed Romney on the Today Show the next morning, confirming the suspicions that he's just a real life troll.

So Michele has denied she'll be endorsing Romney.

I am not sure at this point that Cain qualifies as "real life".
