We don’t know about other Hunters, but we do know about the elder one. The reason he lost was funding more than anything. It sure wasn’t his conservatism.
No, it wasn’t his conservatism, it was his inherent in-electability. His career spanned decades, but never outside of his district. But I’m not going to rerun the Duncan Hunter discussions. Pissant is long gone, so it’s a pointless exercise. You’re welcome to have the last word on Duncan Hunter, I won’t respond.
I notice that you never addressed my point about conservatives not able to unite and beat Romney in the 2011/12 cycle. That’s really the big issue, not whether or not 256 people vote for Goode, or 298 vote for Hoefling, or 153 vote for some other person with 0.00000000001% chance of getting a single electoral vote.
I’m going to repeat the central astounding fact of the primary campaign: as of April 10, Rick Santorum drop-out day, Romney had gotten 5 million votes, Santorum+Gingrich 6 million. It was an epic failure of conservative non-unity.
