The National Right to Life Committee has chosen to endorse Fred Thompson's presidential campaign, which will assist in his efforts to gain the conservative vote. A spokesman for the committee stated that they chose to endorse Thompson "because of his record on abortion issues as a former senator from Tennessee." Mitt Romney, who has been struggling to gain support among ant-abortion advocates due to his switch from being a defender of a woman's right to choose. Though James Bopp Jr, a founder of the group, is a Romney supporter he was still unable to gain the endorsement.
This endorsement should be a good plateform for Thompson considering how hard it is for the other candidates to get it.
ReplyDeleteI think this is huge for Thompson. This is such a controversial issue that some voters will use as their only standard for voting.
ReplyDeleteI don't blame the group for not supporting Romney. No one likes a flip-flopper.
