GOP's Ryan endorses Romney for party's nomination

Posted:

WASHINGTON (WKOW) -- Republican presidential hopeful picked up another big endorsement Friday morning from Rep. Paul Ryan, the chairman of the House Budget Committee.

In an interview on Fox News Channel's "Fox and Friends," Ryan confirmed the speculation he would endorse Romney.

Ryan says Romney is best suited to beat President Barack Obama.

According to Ryan, Romney has emerged as the candidate most deserving of the GOP rank and file's backing. Ryan tells Fox he's convinced that Romney "has the skills, the tenacity and the courage" to lead the party in the race against Obama this fall.

He also says he's convinced that "if we drag this thing on through summer, it's going to be harder" to turn Obama out of office.
