I am proud to have earned the endorsements of Sheriffs Estes and Marcou. They are both outstanding New Hampshire officials and they will play important roles in my strong New Hampshire campaign,” said Mitt Romney. “I am grateful for their confidence and am pleased that they have joined my campaign to cut taxes for the middle class, control government spending and create jobs.”

“Governor Romney is the only candidate who is putting in the time and effort that Granite Staters expect from presidential candidates. He is running a grassroots campaign and working hard to earn the support of every voter,” said Sheriff Estes. “Mitt Romney has spent 25 years in the private sector balancing budgets, growing companies and creating jobs. He is the strongest Republican to take on President Obama because he understands how our economy works and how to get our country back on track. I am proud to endorse his candidacy and look forward to campaigning with him in New Hampshire.”

    I’m disgusted with GOP primary voters after hearing that Newt is now surpassing Mitt in recent polls. Rush and other deeply cyncial party leaders have decided that there is no way they can win this time, no matter who is the nominee, so they want to have the most ideological person they can find to go up against BHO. Thing is, Newt’s a know liar and is well-known for being very hard to get along with. I have absolutely no respect for any voter that is supporting Newt.

    Article in The American Spectator says that it’s absurd for Mitt to try and run as the anti-establishment candidate against Newt. Actually, it isn’t absurd at all. Newt is thoroughly and utterly corrupt from his years in Congress, Mitt is not and Mitt is known for cleaning up corruption. This move by the conservative “anybody but Mitt” crowd is going to splinter the party into two halves and it will take decades for the party to recover. I’m against that because we need two viable parties for checks and balances. If Newt gets the nomination the Democrats will be the only party in town.
