Scott Eckersley Picking Up Conservative and Tea Party Endorsements in Race Against Billy Long

Scott Eckersley already has picked up the endorsement of conservative republican Michael Wardell, but other conservatives are now looking at Eckersley as a conservative alternative to Billy Long. First off, Constitutional Party radio host Dave Levine notes on his blog a strong endorsement of Eckersley. Levine writes:

The Dave Levine Show is enthusiastically endorsing Attorney Scott Ecksersley (D-MO) for Congress in Missouri's 7th District. As someone who is liked by both parties, Eckersley's name has been cleared and his reputation vindicated in the large settlement made by the State of Missouri last year with regards to the Email Scandal that brought down former Governor Matt Blunt. The Independent-minded Eckersley won the Missouri Primary and will face his Republican opponent on November 2nd. Our congratulations to Scott Eckersley for a great win!

As well, Branson entertainers who have participated in the TEA Parties are also giving their endorsements to Scott Eckersely. Jason Hughes from the Hughes Brothers show in Branson has strongly endorsed Eckersely.

Eckersley participated in Constitutional seminar at the Hughes Family theatre in Branson earlier this year. The event was supported by the Tea Party Patriots and included lunch and musical entertainment by Branson names including Andy Williams, Six, and The Hughes Brothers. Earl Taylor, from the National Institute of Constitutional Studies also spoke. Eckersley enjoyed the event focused on the importance of the United States Constitution. Following the event, the oldest Hughes Brother Jason announced his support of Eckersley. Jason Hughes may also be throwing a fund raiser for Eckersley with details expected to come within the next week.

It looks like conservatives and Tea Party members are taking a strong look at Scott Eckersley and they like what they see.
