AFAIK Tancredo is actually conservative. I don't think Republicans have much faith in that.
Cong. Tancredo has a lifetime rating of "99" from the American Consrvative Union. Cong. Tancredo has receieved a rating of "100" from the National Right to Life Committee every session he has served in Congress with the exception of one session for which he received a rating of "91". Cong. Tancredo was awarded a grade of "A" for 2006 by the National Rifel Association (NRA). For 2005, Cong. Tancredo received a grade of "A" from the National Taxpayers Union and was ranked as the fifth (5th) strongeest supporter responsible tax and spending policies in the entire United States House of Representatives.,
That's a conservative record.
What Republicans don't have much faith that Cong. Tancredo is actually a conservative?
