Gov. Bob McDonnell (VA) backs Romney


Not much coverage of any positive Romney developments here, so as one of the at least 30% of the partisan GOP electorate supporting Governor Romney I’ll post this good news:

Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell announced he was backing GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney Friday, saying his support could help Romney win Saturday’s hotly-contested South Carolina primary.

“I’m a Southern governor endorsing Mitt Romney in the first Southern state primary,” McDonnell said on CNN’s “Starting Point with Soledad O’Brien.”

McDonnell is campaigning with Governor Romney in South Carolina today. We all know it’s going to be close and these kinds of news help even if a little bit. Hope tomorrow’s results are positive as well.

So…

1. Romney is still the favorite to win the nomination, which is why I think you have seen several of the VP-wannabees come out and endorse him:: McDonnell, Thune, etc.

2. He probably doesnt want to endorse someone that is not even on the ballot in his home state.

3. He perhaps has some Constitutional issues to even by the VP choice for Newt, because Newt lives in Virginia.

like many other people, he thinks that Romney is a better candidate than Gingrich and would make a better president.

to ensure Virginia voters have a choice of a weather vane or a quack.

With an apology in advance to Scope, the Virginia GOP needs a good disinfecting….

Scope who lives in Virginia. McDonnell wants to be VP…he has let everyone know that. It amazes me how one job of VP can be coveted by so many.
