There is only one candidate vying for the 2008 presidency who will do all of these things and much more. His name is Duncan Hunter - California Congressman from the 52nd District. He is not only fearless, disdainful of politically correct niceties, a constitutionalist, a social conservative to the core, and defense hawks hawk, he also has a long record to match his conservative rhetoric.
No other candidate in the race for the GOP nomination even comes close. [snip]

Now, let’s spread this article all over the internet to friends, neighbos, blogs, and forums.
I agree with Beck much more often than I do anyone other talk show figure these days, that’s for sure. Haven’t always been too happy with his leanings towards Romney, Giuliani, and now Huckabee.... but I think he and DH really connected on this interview because Duncan Hunter spoke Glenn (and conservative America’s) language with more sincerity than any of the aforementioned.
I sent him a thank you note. Good idea.
Done. Thanks.
“Oh, our troops. Yes, good idea. Here is the email. Please send him a thank you note:
Wonderful idea!

Great idea, FRiend. I did it.
I would vote for him in a minute but hes got to get more name recognition.
***hmmm, I had to wade through 55 posts before I came upon your Name Recognition saw. If name recognition is a requirement for your vote, why bother following the race at all? Just vote for the guy whose name you recognize the most.
And as a matter of fact, your post appears to be the only critical post in this whole thread. I’ve gotten so used to having the Fredheads try to beat us up that I just noticed how quiet things are from the Fred camp. That’s probably because his campaign is imploding. Would you rather have the name recognition that goes along with a tanking campaign 8 weeks before Iowa or a slowly building base like Duncan Hunter’s?
Heres a recent poll showing Hunter at 4%.

One thing prediction markets are better at their only bias is whether someone can make money trading the futures contracts.

Kevmo, you obviously went to a hellova lotta trouble here and on top of that you totally misunderstood what I said. Duncan Hunter NEEDS name recognition plain and simple. His message is not getting out. I’m NO Fredhead, I happen to be a Hunter fan and I hope he gets traction in the coming months. Good night and good luck.......
