Mitt Romney Endorses Cruz

This week, in the Utah nominating caucus, I will vote for Senator Ted Cruz.

Today, there is a contest between Trumpism and Republicanism. Through the calculated statements of its leader, Trumpism has become associated with racism, misogyny, bigotry, xenophobia, vulgarity and, most recently, threats and violence. I am repulsed by each and every one of these.

The only path that remains to nominate a Republican rather than Mr. Trump is to have an open convention. At this stage, the only way we can reach an open convention is for Senator Cruz to be successful in as many of the remaining nominating elections as possible.

I like Governor John Kasich. I have campaigned with him. He has a solid record as governor. I would have voted for him in Ohio. But a vote for Governor Kasich in future contests makes it extremely likely that Trumpism would prevail.

I will vote for Senator Cruz and I encourage others to do so as well, so that we can have an open convention and nominate a Republican.

Yet one more reason to support Trump.

Poor Ted!  First Lindsey and now Mitt!
I am sure those are two he could do without!

Wow talk about an endorsement you should passionately refuse.

[truth_seeker]

Considering the impact of the previous Romney speech on the Florida election, I doubt his influence is worth much, except in Utah.

Cruz was already expected to win in Utah, which means Romney's move may have zero results.

Romney joins GOP establishment hacks McCain, Dole, Graham, Rove, etc. Not exactly a crew on the way up, right?

This appears to be the next phase of "Operation Sea Island" whereby a series of futile actions are deployed at the eleventh hour to do what 16 candidates could not do.

Cruz has Romney, Trump has David Duke.

Yeah, well, yesterday a leprechaun endorsed me after I had 12 green beers. I didn't want the endorsement but I couldn't get rid of the guy!

Funny you mock this endorsement. Isn't it Trump who says he is going to expand the party beyond his base of support? Right here Cruz is doing it.

If the RINOGOPe really wanted to take TRUMP out Ms. Lindsey, MIttens, Turrtle, McShame all should endorse TRUMP. That would be problems for TRUMP but glad they helped TRUMP by endorsing CRUZ. These Clinton Republicans are a weird lot!

The moment "when you see a car starting to spin out of control on ice and should look away" has arrived.

Establishment, globalist, took $37 million from just 4 donors:

-Cruz voted for TPP

-Cruz voted for Corker’s Iran nuke deal

-Cruz, as an executive on NRSC, donated $250k at the behest of McConnell, that was then used in the 2014 Mississippi fraud

-Cruz joined Bush organization in 2000

-Cruz wrote WSJ op-ed to endorse John Roberts for SCOTUS (an indicator of future appointments)

-Cruz now has JEB campaign team on his staff - THAT screams Establishment

-Heidi Cruz on CFR’s North American Union that pushes NO BORDERS

-Cruz was supporting amnesty...until recently - a move so transparent anyone can see his dishonesty

-Jeff Sessions endorsed Trump - not Cruz

-Sarah Palin endorsed Trump - not Cruz

Romney is everything that is wrong with the GOP today. I am sure his endorsement means as much as a !jeb endorsement. Or a Rubio one. His likability is probably lower than what !jeb was.

Chris Burris There is a choice...and it is ours to make...not yours Mitt. Any moron could've defeated Obama from ever having a second term and you even managed to fail at that. But now we are all supposed to get on your bandwagon? No thanks.

Ed Lion Cruz was my choice until he blamed Trump for the behavior of the "activists" in Chicago. I'm proud to have voted for you in 2012, but if the republican party subverts the will of the people, I will never again vote for one.

Camile Jackson Romney you are a sad human being. You are lost the election to Obama, the republicans took the house/senate and have done nothing. Trump is the only answer. You need to get on the Trump train or go away.

Frank Canning Sr. Mitt, you sound like a liberal news reporter. I have not heard a negative comment from Trump on racism, misogyny, bigotry, xenophobia, vulgarity and, most recently, threats and violence. If the Party does not unite behind Trump, you hand the election to Hillary, a third Democrat win. The Party is giving more effort to fighting Trump that to Hillary, unite or lose.

Yes, I did that deliberately because I don't consider Glenn Beck to be part of the establishment. Part of a booby hatch maybe, but not the establishment.

Is Milquetoast Milt going to coach Cruz on how to mind-bogglingly lose what should have been the easiest GOP win since Reagan in 1984?

My "favorite" moment looking back at the 2012 campaign was when Candy Crowley and Obama had clearly conspired prior to the debate, Crowley was wrong anyhow, and Milt just stood there mouth agape, just like a big stiff elitist dummy, watching his electoral chances disintegrate right in front of his eyes without saying a word.

Yep, that's my Milt!  So proud I volunteered to make calls for such a fighter!

I remember that moment. Screaming at the TV. PERFECT opportunity.....did nothing.
