On this morning’s “Meet The Press”:

From the Washington Post:

Brewer’s backing comes as Romney holds a sizeable lead in Arizona two days before the state’s primary. Announcing her endorsement on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Brewer said she was drawn to Romney’s candidacy because of his “pro-business background” and ability to win.

“It was a difficult decision, but I think Mitt by far is the person who can go in and win,” Brewer said. “It’s been an interesting campaign. . . but I think things will settle down and I think after Super Tuesday we’ll have our candidate.”

The Obama camp if feeling good about this move by the Arizona governor:

Stephanie Cutter, a deputy campaign manager of President Obama’s reelection effort, tweeted on Saturday night: “Gov. Brewer endorsement tomorrow? Great for Republican primary, damaging to general election. Say goodbye to Hispanic vote.”

Time will tell — One thing is certain, you don’t get to the general election without first winning the nomination.
