Now this just shocks me to no end.



NOM to Endorse Mitt Romney

The National Organization for Marriage is expected to announce its endorsement of Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney on Wednesday, Politico reports.

NOM President Brian Brown's statement also will ask conservative voters to rally around Romney, especially after former Sen. Rick Santorum dropped out of the GOP primary on Tuesday.

"Gov. Romney was an early signer of NOM's presidential pledge, which represents his commitment to the nation to take specific actions as president to preserve and protect marriage as the union of one man and one woman," Brown's message says according to Politico.

I don't want to say where, but let's just say that he's had it "well hidden" for many days now.

I hope that he gets an endorsement from every major "severely conservative" group he pandered to during the primaries.

NOM is going to spend a pile of money here in MN to try to get the marriage amendment passed. The rest of us will be working hard to keep it from passing. It's just one more reason that GOTV for Democrats is going to be so important this year.
