Edwards was right next to Ron Paul, the most libertarian candidate in decades. Go look, Punchdrunk

Edwards was significantly to the left towards communism compared to Ron Paul. Dennis Kucinich and Mike Gravel are the only ones actually on the libertarian — and communism — side.

What is significant is that it showed just how close Hunter and *uckabee really are. They are shown bunch together with no other candidates close to them.

Just look at the list of similarities.
There is no other candidate in the race as close to *uckabee as Duncan Hunter. You cannot deny that.

You are obviously weighting your comparison based on personal style and campaign themes. Yes, Hunter makes immigration, military, and trade much more prominent than *uckabee’s populist campaign, but issue for issue, Hunter and *uckabee come down on the same side closer and more often than any other candidate.

When compared on paper dispassionately, *uckabee is the closest candidate to Hunter in the GOP field. I think *uckabee has the most positions Hunter would approve of in the race, which is why he will throw *uckabee his support for the nomination.

You can’t argue against these simple FACTS, so you attack me with ad hominems instead.
But you can’t stop me for opening others’ eyes to the truth.
