U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo announced today he's ending his long-shot bid
for the White House. The Colorado Republican made his exit from the
race official at a press conference this afternoon in downtown Des
Moines. He'll throw his support behind GOP candidate Mitt Romney, he
said. Tancredo's name was most associated with his fight against
illegal immigration, one of the presidential election's most
controversial issues. But his hard-line approach to curbing the
unlawful migration of millions across the United States' southern
border wasn't enough to vault him from the back of the GOP field.
