Allard endorses Romney, conservatives weep

According to The Hill, Senator Wayne Allard (R-CO) has announced his endorsement of former Taxacusettes Governor Mitt Romney's campaign for President.

Until very recently, Romney has been a proponent of gun control, state funded abortion, gay-rights, and higher taxes. His ill-fated campaign for MA Senate in 1994 and his run for Governor were liberal love-fests. Romney has a history of saying what is politically expedient in order to get elected. Conservatives should not trust his recent so-called conversion to conservative politics.

It is a shame that Colorado's Senior Republican Senator would hitch himself to Romney's wagon.
