I don't know Tancredo's politics. The only reason he is on my radar is because of his stand against illegals. I suggested his name because it would be the one most recognizable as a slap in the face to our Rinos.

I don't really care whose name we use, but our message would stand a better chance of being heard if large numbers used the same name as a write-in in the primaries. There's really no chance (or even hope) that they could actually win.

Oh, I understand your point and appreciate it. It's just that, for me, Tancredo has said and done some things I won't affiliate myself with just because he's a leading voice on a subject we do happen to align about. Others have no problem with him...again...largely because of the one area they care about and agree.

IMO, either Hayworth or Tancredo would adequtely make the point on a write in ballot. J.D. has been becoming a more prominent second voice to this issue of late, so they'd get the point. I love Sessions too...but probably for your point either Tancredo or Hayworth should be the two options given since they've established themselves here.

Tancredo was a high school teacher who became so disgusted when anyone with a hispanic name had to take an English learning class -- even if they spoke perfect English, that he ran for office to do something about this craziness in our system.... he is very fiscally conservative, too...
