There have been rumblings that Herman Cain will endorse Newt Gingrich now that he’s abandoned his run for the White House, but there are signs that Cain’s organization is going with a different candidate.

On Tuesday Michele Bachmann’s campaign announced 19 prominent Cain backers have signed on with the Minnesota Republican now that Cain’s out of the race.

From the release:

Bachmann said today, “Our phones are blowing up with former Cain supporters wanting to line up behind a true consistent conservative. I won’t back down from my conservative beliefs. It is with our campaign that Cain supporters will find a home for their constitutional conservative agenda.”
