Tancredo Endorses Romney On the Way Out

Tom Tancredo, a long-shot candidate at best, has abandoned the campaign and endorsed Mitt Romney:

U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo announced today he's ending his long-shot bid for the White House.

The Colorado Republican made his exit from the race official at a press conference this afternoon in downtown Des Moines. He'll throw his support behind GOP candidate Mitt Romney, he said.

Tancredo's name was most associated with his fight against illegal immigration, one of the presidential election's most controversial issues. But his hard-line approach to curbing the unlawful migration of millions across the United States' southern border wasn't enough to vault him from the back of the GOP field.

I find that somewhat funny following all the hubbub over Mitt Romney's illegal alien gardeners.
