Rough Day For Romney

As Brownback endorses McCain and Pat Robertson backs Giuliani.

Difficult to gauge how positive the impact of these endorsements are for McCain and Giuliani, but by not getting them (or either for that matter) Mitt Romney takes a bit of a hit in the expectations game.

Well it seems that the muddy water is starting to clear up fast in which some candidates (like Brownback) and others (like Pat Robertson) are clearly showing their strong dislike for Romney. Undoubtedly, Mormonism, hence bigotry, is at the root of all these endorsements, albeit clouded in subtlety. I would, however, say that it was good for Romney not to have gotten Robertson’s endorsment which is viewed as embodiment of religious extremism. Romney, I can tell you, will emerge as the ultimate winner.

So, all in all, it was NOT a rough day for Romney; it is a blessing in disguise!!

When the rubber meets the road, I seriously doubt any of the endorsements make all that much difference.

When it comes time to cast the ballots, voters will likely go with their gut.
