Slightly dated, but a good read.

"In important electoral-vote-rich states like Ohio, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, Hunter's message will resonate with working class Democrats who might not otherwise vote Republican."

"There is one area in particular where Duncan Hunter departs from the conservative orthodoxy and that's on trade issues. He's neither a fan of free trade agreements like NAFTA and CAFTA, nor does he think we're getting a square deal on trade from China.

Although many Republicans will disagree with Hunter on this issue, many Democrats find themselves nodding their heads in agreement with what he has to say."

Why are you guys posting old Hunter news articles?

Seriously, I haven't seen any new Hunter news stories this week. Why is that?

If any of the current top three gets the nomination, I'll stay at home before I vote for any of them. What is the difference between a RINO president and a 'Rat president? NOTHING!

I'm keeping an eye on his Wikipedia page - its already been vandalized once but somebody else caught it and quickly fixed it... And that was before he declared.

The nature of the vandalism surprised me. They redirected the link for Hunter campaign site to the John Cox for President page.

The other title of our President is "Chief Executive."

When Duncan Hunter runs a state, or a major American city, I will certainly give him a look.

Up till now...he is just a career member of Congress.

Unless he has proven himself as an "Executive," I think we need to move on.

If your not Pro-Life you don't get my vote. If you aren't articulate enough to convince people that killing an innocent baby even before its born - is bad, you shouldn't be President.

Hunter sounds like a great President to me.

Duncan Hunter has ZERO chance of winning in the race for President. He's an excellent congressman, but like Tom Tancredo will never make it to the highest office in the land. All the wishful thinking in the world won't make it happen either.

If you want Duncan as the nominee then donate to him. Unfortunately, money is the ultimate litmus test.

Thanks for posting this. I'm not a social conservative, but on the other issues Hunter's looking pretty great.

If he can last until the debates his numbers will go up. I will support him. Hunter,Newt,Romney,Rudy in that order.

Hunter has about as much chance of getting nominated or elected as I do....in short, no chance at all. Absolutely no one apart from his constituents and people on this forum know who he is. Mitt Romney has a far greater chance than Hunter, and no one knows who Romney is either.

He has been in house for 25 years and now he wakes up and wants to be president?

Why hasn't he challenged Boxer for the Senate? She is an embarrassment. It would have been a natural progression for him.

I like "To Know Him Is To Love Him, Or At Least To Like Him Better Than McCain."

I could easily support him. As for the "only one congressman ever elected president" argument against him, let's keep in mind one of the alternatives, Giuliani, has never been more than a mayor (among his huge list of other liabilities).

I can see why other conservatives are excited with Duncan. He also does well batting down medialibs like Wolfie Blitzer.
