<em>National Review</em> & Mitt Romney ...

Over at NRO, Peter Beinart and Jonah Goldberg debate whether or not Romney should give the speech.  Meanwhile, Mark Hemingway writes the speech Mitt should give in Texas.

... Speaking of Romney and National Review, I'm hearing from a pretty reliable source that National Review is very close to officially endorsing Mitt Romney ...

Update:  I was able to email with Kathryn Lopez of NRO.  K-Lo told me:  

we talk about lots of possibilities for corporate statements everyday here about many an issue. there's nothing imminent about anyone, though we have a fine NIE editorial today (we're not endorsing Ahmadinejad).
 
yes, we're talking about possibly making an endorsement of someone in primary season, but nothing is decided.
