MITT ROMNEY ANNOUNCES SUPPORT OF FORMER
MISSOURI SENATOR KIT BOND
Boston, MA – Mitt Romney
today announced the support of Missouri Senator Kit Bond.
“I’m
very thankful for Senator Bond’s support,” said Mitt Romney. “Kit has
been a distinguished public servant and voice for limited government
for many years. In the coming months, I look forward to his counsel so
that I may bring a message of a smaller, simpler, and smarter federal
government to all Missourians.”
“I’ve
been listening intently to all the candidates in recent months and have
come to the conclusion that there is only one who can defeat President
Obama, restore conservative principles to the White House, and provide
the leadership our country needs,” said former Senator Kit Bond. “That
candidate is Mitt Romney and I am proud to support him. Time and again
throughout his career, he has shown he can turn troubled enterprises
around. That is precisely what we need right now. Unemployment is
unacceptably high, home prices have fallen, and the American dream
seems to be slipping away. I urge all those who are concerned about the
future of this country to stand with me in supporting Mitt
Romney.”
