GO TOM TO! He has my vote and my check is in the mail. His odds are very long but the issue is important and hopefully his participation will force an open discussion of all sides of this problem. It has been ignored for far to long.
If nothing else, hopefully he'll force the candidates to address the issue and cause a few uneasy campaign moments for the frontrunners. America is pretty united on this issue. It's the political powers that be that aren't listening.
Tancredo could make things mighty uncomfortable for McCain and Giuliani, in partiuclar.
IIRC, Tancredo had said he would not enter the race if there was not already an anti-illegal immigration candidate announced. Isn't Duncan Hunter rock solid on this issue? As such, Tom's announcement sounds a bit ego driven.
By the way, I have long said that my dream ticket would be Tancredo/Coburn. It's just that the field is getting crowded now.
One note Tommy isn't going anywhere.
I'm going to vote for him. I've gotten to the point that I don't care about any other issue. Guns used to be my make or break issue. They are now second to immigration.
It’s about time. Thanks for the post.
