It’s pointless for a two-bit pol like Hunter to endorse another two-bit pol like Huckabee in the first place.
When Reagan endorsed Ford, it was to bring the party together after a hard fought campaign. Same for when Romney endorsed McCain. These are cases of the runner-up getting behind his party’s chosen nominee once the race is over.
But when a nobody like Hunter drops out a few weeks into the race to endorse another longshot like Huckleberry, it serves no purpose other than for the drop to stroke his own ego and pretend like his opinion matters.
Unlike Reagan endorsing Ford, Hunter endorsing Huckleberry had nothing to do with helping his party win the Whitehouse. It was just an insignificant politician’s vain attempt at influencing the outcome of an intraparty race.
Funny. Why did Tancredo endorse Flipper? Why did Fred run McQueeg’s 2000 campaign? Why did DeMint endorse flipper early on? Why did Bolton and Brownback endorse McCain? Why did Hannity fellate Giuliani?
But more importantly, why did you repeatedly endorse the idea that Tancredo is a nazi and Edwards is a libertarian?
I’d guess the answer to that is that you are young and stupid still. But that would be an insult to the young and stupid.
