Hall was also endorsed by Alf Landon, Wendell Wilkie, and Thomas E. Dewey.

LOL Not likely, since he was a democrat when he entered public office, but they were all alive and kicking at the time.

It seems that not many people remember that Hall was first elected to this Congressional seat in 1980, as a Democrat.

But, he was one of the "Blue Dog" conservative Democrats, voted for most of the articles of impeachment against Clinton, and endorsed Bush in the 2000 election.

He switched to the Republican party just before he filed for the party primary in 2004.

Well I’m sure he was likely endorsed by George Wallace and John Conley at some point.
