I think that if Tancredo wants to build credibility, he needs to say something about letting California work on finding ways to combat the illegal immigration problem that will work for their state, while he is working with Governor Owens and the Federal Government to find a solution to illegal immigration in Colorado. He could work with Owens to put together a plan and present that. You must build your own base and SHOW RESULTS before you can be a national candidate. Talking is not doing.

An approach such as this would allow him to show he is serious about the problem and still respects the rights of his party partners in other places to approach the problems differently. His emphasis should be on results and his own first.

Tancredo's biggest problem are not his goals, per se, but his strategy of killing off and alienating his natural allies needed accomplish them simply guarantees he never will. It's exceptionally disappointing, actually.

This thread is about Schwarzenegger and his unwillingness to send the 1500 additional National Guard. It is unwillingness; it is a political ploy because he is an OBL type of guy, and he's been caught at it. I just e-mailed him about his deploying our Fire Fighters to Baja to help with their efforts while U.S. burned. If our firemen were deployed to fight U.S and California fires, it would be no problem to release our NG. Arnold certainly does not appear to be able to govern without putting his finger in the wind. Oh course, I told him to get our firefighters home. He's such an panderer.

There are times that I despair for some of your ability to reason. It does not logically follow that because you do not like Tancredo's message, anyone whom he calls into account gets a pass. WUASTJ. That's "Wake Up and Smell the Java for those in a blinded Tancredo snit.
