This may be one of those watershed moments in American political history...or not; tomorrow Mitt Romney will be making a major speech, putting himself on the radar map.

It won't be an endorsement of Rubio, nor an announcement to enter the race. Bloomberg says:

HOW desperate are Republicans? Lindsay Graham, buddy of John McCain, are well known open borders and welcome the illegals advocates (as well as buddies on most things that undermine the mainstream party leadership). As a BIG Jeb Bush supporter Graham would be expected to switch to Rubio, another amnesty supporter.
But Graham has just suggested, in an interview that it may be time to throw support behind Ted Cruz, as a last ditch attempt to derail Trump.

Mitt Romney will give a speech on the state of the 2016 presidential race on Thursday, his office said.
Romney is scheduled to address the Hinckley Institute of Politics Forum at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City on Thursday morning, according to an advisory sent to reporters. Utah holds its Republican caucuses on March 22, a day after the last scheduled debate in Salt Lake City announced last month.

Mitt Romney will lay out his case for why Donald Trump shouldn’t be the nominee of the Republican Party in a speech on Thursday in Utah, according to a source with knowledge of the remarks…
Romney doesn’t believe Trump is the right person to lead the party, and wants to make his case before the New York businessman can start coalescing party leaders, the source said.
Romney probably won’t endorse, or enter the race, the source said.
