So many candidates, so few endorsements
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution ^ | September 18, 2007

Posted on 09/20/2007 12:19:38 PM PDT by Canticle_of_Deborah

Georgia’s congressional delegation has been slow to endorse any of the presidential primary contenders, Republican or Democrat.

The Hill newspaper reported here Tuesday that only six of the 15 Peach State pols - four Republicans and two Democrats - have made their preferences known. Nearly 230 members of the House and Senate - about half the total - have endorsed candidates, The Hill reported.

--snip--

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, a Republican, appears to be the most popular candidate among Georgia lawmakers. Three state Republicans - Rep. Phil Gingrey of Marietta, Rep. John Linder of Duluth and Rep. Tom Price of Roswell - are all backing him.

Rep. Lynn Westmoreland, a Republican from Grantville, is backing former Sen. Fred Thompson of Tennessee.

Rep. Linder, supporting Mitt, seems to be the most conservative of that bunch with an ACU rating of 96!

Is that not John Linder of Fair Tax fame? Huckabee rode his Fair Tax endorsement to a second place finish in the Iowa beauty contest. Why did’t Linder endorse Huckabee? Huckabee plays a mean bass. Just ask Kristinn ore JimRob.

Jim DeMint (SC) also endorses Mitt. Many good conservatives do.
