JOHN HINDERAKER endorses Mitt Romney. “The ‘anybody but Romney’ mentality that grips many Republicans is, in my view, illogical. It led them to embrace Rick Perry, who turned out to be unable to articulate a conservative thought; Newt Gingrich, whose record is far more checkered than Romney’s; Ron Paul, whose foreign policy views–indistinguishable from those of the far left–and forays into racial intolerance make him unfit to be president; and Michele Bachmann, whom I like very much, but who is more qualified to be a rabble-rouser than a chief executive.”

If you’re not happy with this, there’s always Operation Counterweight.

UPDATE: A different take from John Hawkins.
