Southeastern Missouri Congresswoman Jo Ann Emerson has endorsed Rudy Giuliani for president.
KC Buzz Blog has the scoop and quotes Emerson saying Rudy is the only one that can win.
"The southeast Missouri congresswoman cited several reasons for backing the former New York City mayor. Among them: "I know Rudy is the only candidate who can beat the Democrats next fall."
This is a score for Giuliani because most of Republican politicos in Missouri are with Mitt Romney or Fred Thompson.
NBC's First Read has analysis:
"It gives him a good congressional endorsement in another Feb. 5 state with more than 50 delegates at stake -- to go along with strong operations in Illinois, California, and the New York tri-state area. Emerson is vice president of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, which jives with Giuliani's calls to expand interaction with NATO in an effort to marganilize the United Nations. It also gives him another congressman who leans conservative in his corner," writes Matthew Berger from National Journal.
