I beg to differ. Duncan Hunter is one of the lesser known candidates but take note of how when people see and hear from him they are impressed. Duncan Hunter would make the strongest candidate and the best possible President. And, frankly, he could actually win by keeping the 'red' states, which is most important. It's essential that the GOP candidate hold onto the base while appealing to others. Hunter exudes strength and character and can more than handle himself in debate and discussing issues.

Visibility isn't going to mean anything when principles on important issues like the 2nd Amendment, abortion keep many grassroots home when EVERY vote will be needed and the important 'red' states need to be kept. Rudy will mean nothing to liberals when the media turns on current 'loverboy'. A great candidate that can debate well, exude confidence and a cohesive message will overcome Hillary. And, yes, I think Hunter is the man. He will destroy the old hag quite easily in debates and campaigning. And there is no question who is more Commander in Chief material. NO ONE is stronger than Hunter on national defense.

Rudy will look like the fool when he actually takes part in a debate. What's Rudy so afraid of as he passes on the NH debate next month? He will have to come out from hiding at some point!

Rudy has been all over the media for months. If that's 'hiding,' the Freeper collective grip on reality is (once again?) tenuous.

Well you go out and convince a brain dead american idol fan to vote for your guy... I wish the American people weren't sheep.. who are we kidding, they rather know why brittany spears is in rehab then to get tough answers from politicians... realistically, there are some americans who pay attention to politics because they know the role the government plays in our lives ... and then you have the majority that view presidential elections as a popularity contest.

I understand what they are saying.. I rather see Ron Paul for president, he would truly turn america in the right direction ... But I know it would never happen, because the core republican base wouldn't vote for him because he would support gay marriage etc... even tho the most important values are the same: smaller government, reduced spending, more tax cuts, more protection for gun owners(less government) and the overall belief that all matters should be left up to the individual states in the union and not federal... but that doesn't matter to these people, because he will support someones right to get married even though it goes against the bible... the social conservatives would rather have a big spending liberal socialist with an R next to his name... just as long as he bans the fags from marrying.

They don't see the big picture. I understand their concern on social issues, we all have them, but this time around they aren't most peoples top priority.

You are correct in your statements. Again, it's like hitting your head against a wall when trying to explain what the issue will be in 2008...IT'S NATIONAL SECURITY.

Open border nuts, and National Security? Yeah, that's a winner. LMAO! Blackbird.

Until he comes out to close the borders his creds on national security ring hollow.

Then enjoy at least 4 years with another Clinton in the white house

Thanks! I will. I'd rather die a quick painless death than a slow, agonizing one.

I saw a gleeful characterization of the Republican field in a left wing blog:

"Imagine, if you will, that the three front-runners for the Democratic nomination were: 1) Joe Lieberman; 2) a fundamentalist Christian governor of Utah, and; 3) an anti-choice former mayor of Colorado Springs who isn't just against gay marriage, but who actively and publicly dislikes gay people."

And they should be, however it may be time to take a few other things into consideration as well.
