G H W Bush *Hearts* Romney

Well, that damn near settles it.

Something even more curious from the quotation:

...the former president said he knew Gingrich relatively well. “I’m not his biggest advocate,” he said. “I had a conflict with him at one point,” Bush recalled, alluding to the crucial moment in 1990 when a recession drove him to renege on his “no new taxes” pledge.

So let's get this straight.  GHWBush decided to RAISE taxes during a recession and Gingrich gave him the finger, so GHWBush doesn't like Newtie?

And the "Raise-taxes-in-a-recession" pledge-breaker endorses Romney, eh?

How's Ted gonna 'splain this one?

Surprised that he didn't go for Huntsman.
