No! Endorse Gingrich! He's the only one left who can defeat the Mitten.

The Union Leader also hates Mitt Romney last time I checked.

lol!  The Union Leader pick will have no effect on the winner in New Hampshire this year.  Presently, according to the latest Bloomberg poll, Romney has a 29 point lead over Gingrich in New Hampshire, along with a 17 point lead over the nearest challenger, Paul.  Joke.  Romney will win New Hampshire in a breeze.   

Right, just like how Romney's large lead in November 2007 allowed him to win New Hampshire in a breeze.

I agree that Gingrich is the latest anti-Romney/flash in the pan/whatever term you want to use, but at some point people are going to vote. And if he's the one holding the title at that moment...

Nate Silver has a post up showing that, on average, the endorsee does 11 points better in the primary than their poll numbers indicated prior to being endorsed.
