Hope the voters tell the Republican party to stuff it. They will decide who is the best and this is a great start. Let the Republican party support who they want. We will support and ELECT who we want.

If the RNC will not support Graf, they should at least keep their hands off this district.

I rarely ping people but thought you'd like to see this. It's a lesson CO Republicans need to learn, but may not.

He just came back from DC with cash.

RNC is going to support him.

Ronald Reagan on Immigration for Canada and Mexico

Ronald Reagan on open borders.

One of Tancredo's stupid tricks is he forgets about the Internet and Reagan's actual positions on the issues.

Get it through your head Tancredo... Reagan's actual positions on the issues are easy to find. You can not count on not having your lies found out.

Show me in this article where Tancredo is talking about Reagan's immigration policies.

I dont see it.

I see him using Reagan as a comparison to what beltway pundits were saying prior to elections.

Nothing in there about Reagan and immigration.

Wow, you must be one of those Republicans in Washington that wanted Kolbe. ;-)

Right.... But you get the impression that Reagan would support Tancredo. Reagan would oppose him. But that is typical of what Tancredo type people do.

If you were to pick out a congressional district where an anti illegal immigrant candidate could easily win, where would it be? On the border with Mexico in Arizona perhaps?

Yet we know that 45 percent of the Republicans and nearly 100 percent of the moderates and nearly 100 percent of the Democrats in that district are not with you on that issue. That is scary.

The RNC does not care if a candidate is a conservative or liberal Republican. It is our job to elect Republicans. We only care if a Repubican candidate can win. You have gotten some support from the RNC, but before your camdidate will get anymore you have have to prove he has a decent chance to win.

The fact that your candidate is begging for money at this point in time shows he does not have enough support to win. If he can't get enough financial support in his home district at this point in his campaign there is something very wrong with his candidacy.

That was the RNC's point in the first place. Prove the RNC wrong and we will support you.

Thanks for the heads up. We just have to keep working hard, and make sure Randy is elected.

Graf is the Republican candidate and he deserves a unified party behind him.

"Get it through your head Tancredo... Reagan's actual positions on the issues are easy to find. You can not count on not having your lies found out."

Take your own advice, it'll make you like less of a liar. Reagan had quite a few anti-illegal quotes and some sound downright Tancredo-like. Do a search, they're not hard to find.

And Reagan was wrong when he talked about the free movement of people around Mexico, America and Canada. He was an open borders type also. Luckily he was smart enough to know the majority of Americans don't want the borders erased or a "common currency" or whatever he called it.

The RNC did not support Randy's opponent. Our RNC committeeman was at one of Randy's events. It was the NRCC that supported Huffman, and they were listening to Jim Click and Jim Kolbe.

I know a lot of Democrats who are voting for Randy because of inundation by illegals. I take care of a lot of babies of illegals, and we are tired of having to use phones to talk to the parents of our patients, and we are tired of paying hospital bills for illegals.

The Dems and Republicans from the border towns are tired of the trash they have to clean up and the constant repairing of their fences.

Where the hell has your head been that you believe most people are thrilled to have an invasion of this prooportion?

If Graf loses all we will have learned is how to give up control of the House...and so far, the polls I have seen have him going down in defeat. The November election is the one that counts. If the Tancrado crowd loses this seat for the GOP, they will have done their nation no favor.
