Lakesite Commissioner David Howell

“Knowing Robin’s record and commitment to this area, it was an easy decision to endorse her for Congress,” Howell said. “She and her husband Scott have raised their family here, contributed to the community and made Hamilton County a better place to live as private citizens. As a member of Congress I am confident she will make a positive impact on the entire Third District. In these difficult times, we need leaders who are willing to stand up for their beliefs and stand up for us. Robin is the only candidate in this race who has led on important issues without chasing titles or personal rewards. I believe that is what we need in Washington.”

State Representative Gerald McCormick

“There has been no more consistent and steadfast friend to Hamilton County Republicans and Republicans across Tennessee than Robin Smith. Whether it has been standing up to the income tax, or fighting for the values that make us strong, Robin has been there for us and, in 2010, I encourage the voters of the Third District to be there for her.”

State Representative Vince Dean

" Over the years, I have worked with strong grassroots Republicans to improve our communities in Hamilton County,” Dean said. “During that time I have been proud to work with Robin Smith, first as a county party chairman then later as State Republican Chairman. Those years of working together have made me sure that you can never doubt where Robin stands on the issues."

The Chattanooga Free Press

"She has denounced outrageous spending and other bad policies promoted by both Democrats and Republicans. She has a detailed grasp of the issues as well. She understands, for instance, that Medicare and Social Security will go bankrupt without reform. She wants to let Americans under 50 divert part of what they pay for those entitlements into interest-bearing accounts that would be their personal property. Mrs. Smith will fight to repeal ObamaCare and is equally solid on other issues. She has the endorsement of former U.S. Sen. Bill Brock, R-Tenn., and other conservative groups and individuals.”  

Thomas Donohue, U.S. Chamber of Commerce President

"At no other time in our nation's history has it been more critical that Members of Congress provide leadership that protects and advances the interests of the business community. We believe that your election to the U.S. House will help produce sustained economic growth and help create more jobs."
