Shouldn’t the GOP nationally be following that Arnold Schwarzenegger example in California?

REP. HUNTER: No. (Laughter.) And let me just say, you know, I look at Governor Romney, Mayor Giuliani, my good friend John McCain. Governor Romney joined with Bill Clinton for the 1994 gun ban when I was fighting that. Mayor Giuliani stood with him at the White House on that. Governor Romney has passed what I consider to be a major step toward socialism with respect to his mandated health care bill. John McCain is standing strong with Ted Kennedy on this Kennedy- McCain-Bush border enforcement bill.

I think the guy who’s got the most influence right here with these three gentlemen is Ted Kennedy. And I think we need to move away from the Kennedy Wing of the Republican Party. (Applause.)


Best part of the debate. Thank you for transcribing.

Thank you calcowgirl. If Mitt Romney partnered with Clinton on gun control, then I don’t see how he’s any better than Giuliani...

I was hootin’ and hollerin’ when I heard him say that! Even had to pump my fist in the air! Finally, someone with guts said outloud, on TV, what all of us have been thinking and saying!

Hunter goes for honesty over points.
One of the things that makes him the best.

"Best part of the debate."

It sure was.

And Duncan is the only true conservative running.
