California ProLife PAC endorses Fred Thompson:

Employs “TARGETING” strategy.

The CPLC PAC, the political arm of the largest, single-issue organization in California announced today its endorsement of Senator Fred Thompson for President.

“There are many pro-life candidates in the race,” said Lawrence Lehr, PAC Chairman, “But Fred Thompson is clearly the one, consistently pro-life candidate with the ability to win in November. It is important that pro-life voters rally around a candidate that can make a difference.” CPLC PAC now joins National Right to Life PAC and many other state pro-life organizations in endorsing Thompson.

Thompson has a 100% pro-life voting record in the U.S. Senate. “Fred is reminiscent of Ronald Reagan;” said Lehr, “firm and deliberative, not given to hype and not to be bullied; he is the kind of pro-life President this country needs.”

“Our strategy in California is to target certain Congressional districts for Fred, as California is no longer a ‘winner take-all-state.’”  Lehr would not elaborate on exactly which districts, or what methods would be employed. “By garnering key delegates here in California, we hope to help Fred Thompson get the necessary margin of victory in  2008,” said Lehr.
