Fred Thompson picked up a major endorsement that will give even more momentum to his campaign in Iowa. Iowa Congressman Steve King has decided to endorse Thompson and plans to tour the state with Fred during his “Clear Conservative Choice: Hands Down! Bus Tour.”

” Congressman King’s leadership in support of the sanctity of life and his efforts in the fight against illegal immigration have made him one of Iowa’s great Republican leaders. He’s a tireless fighter for the 5th district of Iowa and I’m honored by his support. I look forward to working with Congressman King over the next three weeks and into 2008 in support of the traditional conservative values he and I share.”
