Byrne Piling Up The Endorsements
10/07/10 18:46
In the last few days, Bradley Byrne has gotten a truckload of high profile endorsements. In addition to practically every newspaper in the state, Byrne earned endorsements from Rep. Jo Bonner (CD 1), Rep. Spencer Bachus (CD 6), and Red State's Erick Erickson. Former US Representative Terry Evertt and former ALGOP Chairman Marty Connors also publicly voiced their support for Bradley.
Gov. Riley came out formally for Byrne on Friday, saying he would vote for Byrne, but stopped short of a formal endorsement because he said he didn't want to tell the people of Alabama how to vote.
Senator Jeff Sessions and Representative Mike Rogers have made de facto endorsements of Bradley through letters sent to ALGOP Chairman Mike Hubbard condemning the attempt by AEA to influence the Republican primary.
If Bentley wins this run-off on Tuesday it looks like he's going to have his work cut out for him in trying to reunite conservatives in Alabama...

Another huge endorsement for Bradley Byrne. Conservatives continue to pile up on Byrne's side...it's unfortunate that some good conservatives in Alabama don't get it...

Alabama voters head to the polls on Tuesday and I haven’t had as much to say about this race as I should.
I’m supporting Bradley Byrne. Unions in Alabama are doing everything in their power to stop him — spending millions on him.
His opponent, Robert Bentley, regularly sided with the Alabama teachers union to stop school reform in Alabama. People always make jokes about the smarts of people from Alabama largely because of how entrenched the school unions are and just how much damage they are doing. Robert Bentley sided with them.
Contrast him with Bradley Byrne who has been fighting the teachers unions for years. He started out a Democrat and moved over time to the GOP. He is conservative. He is pro-life. He is willing to beat up the establishment, fight the unions, and make enemies within the GOP for doing what’s right.
Quin Hillyer has a great review of why Alabama is important and I hope those of you living in the state next to me will go vote for Bradley Byrne on Tuesday.
