As reported by the Krusty Konsrvative a few days ago, Christopher Rants is the latest and highest ranking Mitt Head coming out of Iowa.
“I hope the governor chooses to keep this alliance moving forward,” said Rants, R-Sioux City. “I’m certainly on board for the long haul.”
With his decision, Rants becomes the highest-ranking Republican elected official in Iowa to sign on with a potential presidential candidate.

Rants said he studied the potential Republican candidates who have been flocking to his state before deciding to back Romney. The speaker said he posed each candidate a series of questions, some about politics, others about specific issues.
“I saw in Gov. Romney a leader that I could put my trust in, somebody I thought would inspire other Republicans to follow,” he said.
Rants added: “I will speak for myself; I hope he has plans beyond 2006.”
One step closer.
