Trancedo is going to need to show he is more than just a one issue wonder for me to vote for him....
and that is EXACTLY what he is, a one issue wonder.
Tancredo is nothing but a troublemaker at the President's expense. Earlier this year, he derailed the President's wise proposal for immigration reform by totally mischaracterizing the President's proposal.
Last week he went freelancing about how the US should recognize Taiwan. Doing so only embrarasses President Bush and empowers the Red China
Until this ego-maniac curbs his prima donna attitude, he does not deserved to be seriously considered for county dog catcher, much less president
Agree completely - (and this whole Tran Vs Limbaugh poll is ridiculous in that everyone knows Rush would never run those skewing the poll from the beginning....if it had any merit to begin with).
Trancedo won't even be a factor at all come 08 - (this is being media driven to try and split the GOP vote on the immigration issue)
The Hillary camp knows the only way she can win is a repeat of 92 - Where a third person type candidate takes at least 6 to 12 of the GOP vote -
The media are going to hype immigration like never before in the 08 election - to try and do exactly this -
Correct.
He could prove otherwise by running for Governor in 2006 and winning. I'll believe it when I see it.
I think my dream ticket, as of right now, would probably be Jeb + Thune/Owens/Frist/Rice or any one of several others, but anyhow, I don't think Jeb will run, so whatever.

I agree with you about Tancredo. As important as the immigration issue is....I don't think he's that well-rounded as a politician.
