Are you saying that Hunter never familiarized himself with the opponents he was facing during the campaign?
How stupid is that?
Oh Goody! We really, really need one of the good guys on a dark horse at this time!
Believe it or not, Hunter did not have an opposition research staff.
Wow. That could have been one volunteer simply reading FR and preparing a report. Every candidate has been thoroughly raked over the coals at this site.
LOL. Very true.
That would be interesting.
“What do you make of that Minuteman guy...the one who started that group, I think...Jim Gilchrist, I believe his name is...endorsing and making appearances for Huckabee, as well as Tancredo endorsing Romney?”
Hey...ya’ll won’t believe this....I just received an email containing a press release from Midwest Minutemen....guess who they’ve decided to endorse....Ron Paul. aghhh
“They went for the stalking horse, whose record was nowhere near that of Hunter.”
I thought he would wait a week to fall on his sword. He didn’t even wait 72 hours.
Yep...many with the border issue were #1 Tancredo, #2 Hunter and #3 Paul.
I guess they didn’t get the memo on the nutjob yet....

“Suffice to say that Duncan Hunter IS the man that conservatives wanted. But the media would not cover him -”
Where were we when Thompson and Hunter needed us.
Thompson and Hunter was the ticket I wanted!!
If I had my way, Hunter wouldn’t have endorsed anyone. I have to think he is privy to some information we do not have. If he were going to endorse someone, I can’t see Huckabee is any worse than any of the rest.
What have any of the rest done to secure the borders or address the ChiCom threat? Many of them have been on the other side of this issue and if not are certainly not a great deal better than Huckabee. Huckabee does have a record on pro-life that has been unwavering. That is more than I can say for the rest.
I would think I am more conservative than Hunter and I have thought of supporting Huckabee. It is not because I like Huckabee or agree with him politically; But rather, I can think of no better way to jam my thumb into the eye of the GOP elite. Huckabee throws a wrench into the works and a thorn into the side of the rest of the liberal/moderates.
If those who scampered over to the Romney side think they are on any higher ground, they are mistaken. Huck is a shameless panderer and little else, but at least he wasn’t down on the border posing by a fence that Duncan Hunter built. The key difference is Romney has a large checkbook and is more than willing to spend it to cover his flips, flops and hypocrisies. Huckabee is malleable and is impressed with Hunter so there is something more to this than is known now. We shall see.
Well, that’s why I signed up for Calpernia’s blog. The system is already in place, just go sign up...
Duncan Hunter just endorsed pro-illegal, pro-amnesty Mike Huckabee.
Put that in your crackpipe and smoke it.
How's Hunter's fundraising going? :-)
Duncan Hunter Endorses Mike Huckabee
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1958386/posts
I’ve been away-at the March.
Did Hunter endorse someone?
Perhaps National Right to Life is poised to endorse Huckabee, sometime between now and the Jan. 29 primary in Florida.
“Re-draft Duncan Hunter into the Presidential Race”
After endorsing McLame . . . . ain’t no frankin way!
oops. I just saw it.
It looks kike an anti-establishment endorsement. Huckabee and Paul are the only 2 left who absolutely terrify the RINO elite.
Paul said too many things about the military-even while Hunter’s son was deployed overseas. I can’t see him going there.
He must see Huck as less harmful than the others.
I thought Romney would denounce, and divest from, Bane Capital and ask for Hunter’s support.
