Bond Backs Rudy

Missouri Sen. Kit Bond endorsed former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani for the Republican nomination for president Friday. “Because I’m from the ‘Show-Me State,’ he has shown me … why he should be elected,” Bond said at a press conference near Capitol Hill. Bond is the second Midwestern senator to endorse Giuliani this week, following Norm Coleman of Minnesota. “We’re bringing the heartland to the Giuliani campaign,” Coleman said at the press conference Friday. The candidate said the endorsements take on added significance because both senators are from “Feb. 5 states” who hold early primaries on that date. (Photo by Rick McKay)
