Being a Congressman has its advantages over being Governor of a state. Governors can't do jack about illegal immigration or other federal policies. A Congressman can. Plus a Congressman hears it from his constituents daily and stays in contact with him. Congressional Republicans especially maintain contact with the grassroots and local officials.
Outside of FR, less than 1% of the electorate has even heard of him.
Tancredo has national name recognition and is very popular in Colorado, as well as the border states.
the man has big time visibility problems, he has some comments that will be plastered ALL OVER THE PLACE if he gets the nomination.
More MSM/Democrat/GOP establishment talking points from people who take Tancredo's comments out of context to discourage his supporters. Please, get the facts before spewing recycled propaganda.
