Tom Tancredo running is a good thing. While he a pony that does only one trick (immigration), it's a damn good trick and if he can push the entire Republican field in the correct direction, then he's done good, not to mention he might turn out to be a good VP candidate.

Tancredo is not a one trick pony. He know, as do most who follow the immigration debate, that illegal immigration affects everything. Schools, healthcare, population, environment, etc. You can just go right down the line of anything that is in supposed dire straights of 'government needs more money'.
Illegal immigration boils down to two things........taxes and laws.
Tom Tancredo knows this but it really should be emphasized more by the anti-illegal people.

Not to mention it might be the single most important trick this country has faced in the last 30 years and one our leaders have failed us miserably on. IMO it is more important than the WOT - even pretending that the border and the WOT are two different things. Which I don't.

The snowball's chance in hell stuff I don't get. The primaries are the time to decide who you can support and who you can't based on the issues. They shouldn't be a horse race where people pick favorites based on who has the best chance of winning. The purpose of the primaries is to determine who the best candidate is.

I'm glad Tancredo is running and I suspect some will be a lot surprised to find out how big of an issue the illegal aliens problem is with the people. Just watch.

McCain is already finding that out and not in a good way.

He also scores good marks from both the NRA and GOA. A solid 2d Amendment candidate is a breath of fresh air.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Tancredo is also a human rights advocate (not in the liberal way) and is a strong fiscal conservative.

2nd and 3rd generation Hispanics support Tancredo as well.

Tancredo VP candidate? You MUST be joking. Neither Hunter nor Tancredo will have ANY effect on the others, they'll be ignored or swatted like flies
