Former Cain Supporter S.C.
Representative Ralph Norman Leads Growing List Joining Team
Bachmann
Columbia, S.C. - Herman Cain’s South
Carolina supporters are flocking to Michele Bachmann as they look for
the constitutional conservative to get behind. Today, the Bachmann for
President campaign announced 19 former Cain state leaders who have
pledged their support for Michele Bachmann, including state
representative Ralph
Norman, Cain’s most high profile supporter.
Representative Ralph Norman (York County) is known as one of the most
conservative members of the S.C. House of Representatives. Just last
week
Norman was named a “Taxpayer Hero” by the S.C. Club for Growth. Today,
he was named 5th District Chairman for Michele Bachmann’s
South Carolina campaign.
“We need a president with the specific ideas to reform our tax code,
cut ridiculous spending programs and
fight back against currency manipulators like China. We’ve suffered
three long years under a president full of rhetoric. Now we must move
past
the rhetoric and elect a leader who has been a consistent
conservative,” Rep. Norman said.
Joining Norman are eighteen other Cain leaders, including Matt
Gottlieb, former Herman Cain
Richland County Chairman. “I hope voters won’t fall for rhetoric and
debate performances backed up by a wishy-washy record of supporting
bank bailouts and man-made climate change. The best indicator of a
person’s future actions are their past actions. We need a president who
has
always been, and who always will be, a consistent conservative,”
Gottlieb said.
Bachmann said today, “Our phones are blowing up with former Cain
supporters wanting to line up behind a
true consistent conservative. I won’t back down from my conservative
beliefs. It is with our campaign that Cain supporters will find a home
for
their constitutional conservative agenda.”
