Former Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain has endorsed Newt Gingrich for the Republican nomination in 2012.

At a campaign event at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts in West Palm Beach, Florida, it was announced that a “surprise guest” was in the audience. The former Godfather’s Pizza CEO appeared on stage and made a short speech declaring his “wholehearted,” “enthusiastic” support for the former Speaker of the House.
