Interesting article. Good post.

By the way, Duncan holds great views and is generally consistent. Unfortunately, he doesn’t have much charisma when compared to some of the other contenders. I would like him to step up and make his presence known. At least Ron Paul grabs attention--even if it is primarily that of the nutballs.

..and just curious.. as you know, all of this has been hashed through before and most are half truths at best, yet you continue to post and tear down the other Conservative candidates.

You do realize that if we wanted, the same game can be played with Hunter, but we won’t because FredHeads aren’t going to tear him down.

However, I do ask, what are you going to do when Duncan throws in the towel? He is still not polling above 1% in pretty much any poll and he raised barely a half a million last quarter and has only $130k in the bank.

How exactly are you building Hunter up?

You may maintain that these points have been hashed out; but I disagree. And the points are major issues.

That's the point of pieces like this. It is called 'data asphyxiation', drowning people in data.. no matter the fact that Calpernia knows all these things have been covered over and over and over and most have been exposed as half-truths at best, she does this to drown people in paragraphs of data that one can't quickly respond to.. that is why I'm just posting links.

Well, there's two attempts at "guilt by association". (Possibly three if you count the fact that Thompson liked a speech given by Colin Powell.) Then there's the discussion of tort reform without even a token attempt to determine if it should have been a federal issue in the first place. We also see the typical re-hash of "better immigration's" misleading tally of votes without context. Some laughable "analysis" of the Chinagate hearings, suggesting that the problem is that Thompson didn't follow Lott's script well enough, is included as well.

On the whole, I'd give this effort a D-.

Is this from the same author who did the Conservitive Case against Romney and Rudy?

With Fred`s support among FReepers at 88%, looks like these endless and repetitive nitpicking attacks on Fred`s integrity, veracity and conservatism are having no effect. Fred remains the most reliable and viable conservative alternative to the liberal, Rooty Toot.

Btw, Howard Baker served as Pres. Reagan's Chief of Staff during the Iran-Contra Affair. If Baker was good enough to advise Reagan, he's good enough to advise Fred.

Let's see.....Bar of Integrity.....A Duncan Hunter for President blog site.

Nothing like trying to fake a legitimate website as nothing more than your attentionwhore opinion blog.

Funny how you Donuts will stoop to anything. Still doesn't help your candidate and all it does is disconnect those that might support him from wanting to help, because of the nutballs he attracts, kinda like RuPaul.

What’s sad is that the Hunter supporters actually make me look forward to when he drops out versus rooting for him to the end. They act like Paul supporters with one difference, Duncan is a decent guy.
