In all actuality, Fred Thompson isn't exactly smiley face! And I do recommend people check out Duncan Hunter because no one exudes more leadership than that fine man and he can just cut right to a point and speak common sense that strikes to the issue. You're trying to win people over to the 'actor', I'm trying to get people to check out Duncan Hunter. I think more people that actually take a look at Hunter will come to the opposite view of your's. I think that's your bias showing with 'electability'. I'll tell you, outside the GOP fawning over the 'actor', the only people who would really know who he is are people who watch Law and Order. He isn't so big a name or as assured 'electabillity' as some would like to claim. He will eventually face the military question. The GOP is going to have to have a solid messenger on Iraq and the WOT and Hunter is the MOST qualified and MOST capable in that area. And I prefer a man more in the mold of John Wayne with actual military experience and the strength of character and leadership like Hunter.

Not to be nit-picky, but John Wayne, one of my favorite actors and Americans, was never in the military. 

I understand what you are trying to say, but you picked the wrong man for comparison. Fred Thompson is much more Waynelike than Duncan Hunter. I can assure you that if I didn't know any of these men at all and walked into a room full of people that included these gentlemen, John Wayne & Fred Thompson would garner my attention, Duncan wouldn't.

The slovenly look that someone mentioned earlier fits Hunter. I mentioned to my son just a few days ago that the guy always looks like he just stepped off of a long flight.

People should consider that it's not a matter of voting for someone with talking points to their liking.  The trick is getting your talking points into the Republican National Platform, then putting forth a Republican that is electable.

Duncan WHO? I'm not being sarcastic, I'm being serious. This is what most people ask when you mention the name Duncan Hunter. He's a loser.
