Missouri Right to Life, an anti-abortion organization, has endorsed former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee for president.
Thr group's board of directors and political action committee cited Huckabee's issue positions, his level of support nationwide and in Missouri, and his "steadfast support of pro-life principles during more than ten years of public service."
Dave Plemmons of Missouri Right to Life said the group's board chose to weigh in on the race after Fred Thompson dropped out of the presidential race.
"Mike Huckabee was the most acceptable candidate on life issues," Plemmons told KY3-TV.
"Other candidates who are viable have problems with either abortion, or embryonic stem cell research. Mike Huckabee's pro-life record is stellar," Plemmons added, referring to John McCain and Mitt Romney -- both of whom endorse some embryonic stem cell research.
