ABC News reports that Mitt Romney will get Secret Service protection this week, making him the first Republican candidate since Herman Cain to get a detail this cycle.

From ABC:

Secret Service protection is being given to the campaign not because of a specific threat but because of the increase in crowd sizes as the primary season has progressed over the past few weeks, according to the sources, who refused to be identified because they don’t have authority to comment on such matters publicly.
