I don't agree with Will's gloomy assessment of Hunter's chances. But this is a great article, overall.

People are starting to take notice.

It sure is nice being able to support someone for president who doesn't have to become a conservative but has been one his whole life!

Don't know much about his wife, but I like her sense of humor.

What happens because of the compressed primaries if a candidate is nominated and the base angrily rise up in protest? Like what happened with Harriet Meiers?

People are starting to take notice.

My one boss is basically a socialist/democrat. He listens to Air America just about all day long. He's not psyched for Obama or Hillary.

I asked him, "Do you know who Duncan Hunter is?" He said, "yeah, the chair of the Armed Services guy. Seems very common sense. Knowledgable on defense issues."

He knew more about Hunter than me, and despite Hunter's conservative credentials, he seemed to like him because he has common sense, and talks straight. I almost fell out of my chair.

I will grant you Antoninus, that a column from George Will is a solid PR achievement for DH.

And please note, that I had nothing to do with getting this thread started.

It has been tough not doing any bashing. I've used the time to get to know my family better-- my but my boys have grown! Luckily, March 1 will be here soon enough. My only worry is that (according to the article) with DH's candidacy having only so far raised a mere $300,000 in "pledges", that by March 1st there may not be any campaign left for me on to bash! ;-)

Who two years later was elected governor. Duncan learned early on about rapid upward mobility in politics.

I honestly thought George Will was literate, but this is such a terrible construction that I've got to question his sobriety.

Respectfully, I have one question for Duncan Hunter.

"Will you support Rudy Giuliani if he is the party nominee?"

It isn't hard to be the conservative. Rudy, Romney, and McCaine aren't. Gilmore may or may not be running anything. Newt keep evolving and has a baggage train a mile long. Ron Paul lives in an imaginary world without Islamists, and Tancredo has serious baggage regarding Nam.

I'm going to see Newt tonight, so I may come back a Newt fanatic. I used to intern for him before that word became dirty.

I agree with the assessment. Apparently you must be his campaign manager,because you more than anyone else is promoting his cause. I like his politics, but there is just something about him that I don't like. I just haven't been able to put my finger on it.

IMO.. I think there is a better conservative candidate out there, That person just hasn't shown up yet.

Duncan Hunter Aims to Be the Conservative in the Race

Jim Gilmore's not gonna like this. He says he is the only "true conservative" in the race.

Enough of this you CAN'T. Substance will prove the naysayers wrong in Hunter's case. We are at a turning point in our country and with the GOP in what direction we are going in. If conservatives don't stand up for their principles now, we are going to be settling on these naysayers saying conservatism CAN'T win because the public wants liberalism. Hunter will run a great campaign and finally bring a great messenger that has been missing from the GOP for some time.

Thanks guys for all you do to post new info each day about Duncan Hunter. He's the first Republican I've gotten encouraged about since Reagan. The more I read of him the more I like him. I've got to do more to get his name out there for others to consider.
