Romney to "suspend campaign" today

CNN is reporting the breaking news that "Romney to suspend campaign." Mitt is quitting. He'll apparently be making the big announcement today at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). But Mitt being Mitt, he could just flip-flop and get back in.


More from ABC:

"If I fight on in my campaign, all the way to the convention, I would forestall the launch of a national campaign and make it more likely that Senator Clinton or (Barack) Obama would win. And in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign, be a part of aiding a surrender to terror," Romney planned to say in a speech to the conference, according to the Associated Press.

"This is not an easy decision for me. I hate to lose. My family, my friends and our supporters ... many of you right here in this room ... have given a great deal to get me where I have a shot at becoming president. If this were only about me, I would go on. But I entered this race because I love America, and because I love America, I feel I must now stand aside, for our party and for our country," Romney planned to say, reports the AP.
