I’m not a Coloradan ,and have no dog in this fight, but Tancredo has always struck me as a limited one-trick pony. Has he ever shown leadership in any areas other than immigration? Is there any other “there” there?
Tom is good on a number of issues. Immigration is the national question, and if it’s not managed soon there will not be a country to live in. Once we can no longer win national elections....and we are close to that. You can kiss off the courts which will be filled with leftists & the first thing to go will be the second amendment.
Well if one is going to be a one-trick pony then immigration is a good pony. Immigration affects pretty much every other issue, especially those considered more important (economy, jobs, health care, education, homeland security).
Maybe Tancredo wasn’t as loud on other issues while in Congress, but he had a nearly unassailable conservative voting record.
