And you think Fred Thompson would be better than Duncan Hunter? If amnesty is defeated, who on the horizon would you choose to be the next president of the United States?
I don't know what Fred Thompson's position is on immigration. He hasn't thrown his hat in the ring. I like Hunter's position on illegal immigration, but he needs to say more about what he will do to change legal immigration policies. Generally, I see Thompson as having a leg up on Hunter in terms of electability, mainly due to name recognition and personality.

I am still on the fence. The most impressive so far from the two debates has been Romney. He is the most articulate and charismatic. I just question his conservative credentials. I like Hunter who has a real record and substantive knowledge about national security, trade and immigration issues. The only real question is about electability and a hint of some alleged personal scandal about his home. I want to know more about that. We still have plenty of time to learn more about the candidates and their positions on the issues.
Fred is smart, and certainly a polished politician.
But in my humble opinion, he is too oldish and curmudgeon to really catch fire, especially with younger voters, despite his status as a 'movie star.'
I firmly believe that Mitt Romney has what it takes, most importantly he has fabulous oratory skills whereby he could take apart these smarmy network Democrat 'journalists'.
As for his 'flips,' I would rather have someone who has seen the error of his former ways than someone who sticks to that error (a la Rudy)
McCain is insane. That's what his campaign slogan should be.
