NFRA Endorses Mourdock, Miniear, McIntosh In Indiana
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NFRA ENDORSES MOURDOCK, MINIEAR, MCINTOSH IN INDIANA
DESTIN, FLORIDA, May 3, 2012—The National Federation of Republican Assemblies (NFRA), one of America’s oldest and largest conservative groups, today announced its endorsement of Richard Mourdock for U.S. Senate over incumbent GOP Senator Richard Lugar; and also of J. D. Miniear and David McIntosh for U.S. House of Representatives.
“Our grassroots membership endorsed these outstanding conservatives by a more than 2/3 margin because they’re the best: they’re a team who will stand for Indiana and for principle,” said NFRA President Rod D. Martin. “2010 showed that Americans are fed up with “me-too” Republicans like Dick Lugar who promise conservatism at home and deliver for Barack Obama in Washington.
“If Indiana Republicans wanted Democrats, they’d vote for real ones. In Richard Mourdock, J. D. Miniear and David McIntosh, you’re voting for tested conservative leaders of genuine conviction and leaders who can win.”
The National Federation of Republican Assemblies, dubbed "the Republican Wing of the Republican Party", is a 76-year old grassroots organization dedicated to electing real conservatives to lead the Republican Party. The NFRA proudly endorses candidates in contested primaries, through a rigorous process requiring a two-thirds vote of its grassroots membership, ensuring that Republicans know who the true conservative candidates are in every election. Prominent past and present members include President Ronald Reagan, Eagle Forum founder Phyllis Schlafly, Ambassador Kenneth Blackwell, Presidential candidates Mike Huckabee, Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann, 2010 Senate nominee Sharron Angle, and pro-gun anti-tax leader Grover Norquist.
“Republicans win when they’re true to their principles,” Martin said. “That’s why we’re excited about Indiana’s winning team of Mourdock, Miniear, and McIntosh. We’re proud to stand with them, in the primary and all the way to Washington.”

The NFRA fights tirelessly to elect a strong, grassroots Republican Party leadership. The more they succeed, the more we’ll see real change in America.
As a famous Californian once said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” That’s why, now more than ever, the National Federation of Republican Assemblies is looked upon as one of the preeminent guardians of Ronald Reagan’s legacy, providing a powerful, unwavering voice for conservative principles amid the pandemonium of modern politics. Their advocacy is vital to our party’s future.
When conservatives took back America’s largest Protestant denomination, the Southern Baptist Convention, from the liberal leadership which had hijacked it, we used the same strategies and tactics that make the NFRA so potent a force today. Those strategies worked flawlessly then, and they’ll work as conservatives assert themselves in the Republican Party today.
The Republican Assemblies are truly a force for renewal within the Republican Party.
I am honored to stand with the National Federation of Republican Assemblies, one of the strongest voices for conservative values and a revitalized Republican Party in America.
The NFRA has never been more important than it is right now. We no longer have the luxury to nominate Republicans who, once elected, undermine the principles of individual freedom and limited government that define our party. Republican Assemblies across the country have kept the conservative movement alive and the future of our party and of our country ultimately depends on their success.
When I was a high school student, Phyllis Schlafly’s book, A Choice, Not an Echo, was an important influence on my political direction. Today I support the NFRA for that same reason. The Republican Party must be more than just a cheaper, slower echo of the Democrats: it must be a distinct choice, for conservative values and for a future of freedom. If you long for that choice, then you should join the NFRA.
We need more people like you [the Republican Assemblies] who truly believe in the Constitution, in liberty and in standing up to an establishment that believes in neither.
