Byrne Piling Up The Endorsements

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...
