"As an indication of how seriously Hall is taking Ratcliffe, the congressman recently loaned his campaign $100,000, the first such loan in at least a decade.
Hall, though, bristles at the notion that he's not conservative enough. He's been endorsed by tea party favorite and Rep. Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota and leading Christian conservative voice and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.
Last week, conservative grassroots superstar and U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas praised Hall's courage while presenting him an award for his military service. Hall is the only World War II veteran left in Congress seeking re-election.
"He's running against my birth certificate," Hall said of Ratcliffe."
