Tonight, during an exclusive interview with Sean Hannity, former Gov. Mitt Romney (R-MA) promised to campaign for Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) “to make sure we have conservative leadership running our country.”

How quickly things change. A little more than a month ago, Romney attacked McCain’s conservative credentials. In the lead-up to Super Duper Tuesday, Romney claimed that McCain’s immigration policies, “and his support for a cap-and-trade program” demonstrated that McCain would follow a “liberal Democratic” course if elected. “I don’t think those liberal answers are the ones Americans are looking for,” Romney said at a Fort Meyers event in late January.

Days later, during a contentious debate at the Reagan Library, Romney said that McCain’s policies “are outside the view of mainstream Republican thought.”

And I guess I’d also note that, if you get endorsed by the New York Times, you’re probably not a conservative.

Even after ending his bid for the White House, Romney remains, as McCain once described him, the candidate of change.
