Religious Republicans fracture further

Thompsonhandout Another sign that the religious conservative Republican base is all over the place: Fred Thompson has won the endorsement of the National Right to Life Committee. This is despite his past work as a lobbyist for a family planning group and his stated lack of support for a federal constitutional amendment against abortion. “I was pro-life on every, every vote,” Thompson said of his Senate voting record. This also follows endorsements of Rudy Giuliani by Pat Robertson, of Mitt Romney by Paul Weyrich, of Mike Huckabee by Donald Wildmon and of John McCain by Sam Brownback.
