The Lower-Tier Blues (hope for Hunter?)
Humanevents.com ^ | 6/6/07 | Michelle Oddis

Posted on 06/06/2007 6:29:22 AM PDT by wilco200

As the Republican primary debates trudge on, second-tier contenders are still emerging from early campaign darkness. But while this break in the clouds gives hope to a couple of candidates -- it sets back even further those who have yet to stand out. How many more debates can Jim Gilmore, Sam Brownback and Tommy Thompson participate in before they fade-out?... ....Duncan Hunter had several moments in last night’s debate that could promote his lower-tier status sooner rather than later. His experience in foreign policy, national defense and his stance on immigration has previously been impressive but Hunter stepped up his game last night through talking points.

I am totally for Duncan Hunter’s politics; his views are 100% correct in my view. Having the right politics is not enough! Realistically, he has no demonstration of executive ability on his resume so his capacity to run the huge and bloated fedgov is uncharted waters. We have seen the nasty effects of executive incompetency and we cannot possibly risk any more of that; lest the enemy party capture the next generation and ruin the nation. Duncan is my choice for VP hands down, he does not now have enough personal preparation for the top job.

Hunter had a storefront legal office he ran in the 1970’s. The rest of his career was in the house and his service was exemplary. nevertheless, this is too thin a resume entry for serious consideration for chief executive of a trillion $$$$ dysfunctional organization.

And don’t you say anything bad about the greatest president in the last 100 years who has hollywood/hollywierd on his resume neither.

Duncan Hunter’s experience far outshines that of any other candidate, (including FTD’s by several 100%). I worked very hard on several of Reagan’s campaigns. Duncan Hunter and Ronald Reagan went into office at the same time.

Very good idea about sending money to his campaign. I have too, but sadly he has only raised about 500,000 dollars and has about 200,000 dollars left. He is way behind in his fundraising for some reason. I wish he could get some traction. FREEPERS promised back in January that Duncan would be polled at number one by the summer. We still have a few weeks but he is not quite number one yet.

WOW! A great assessory for a boy’s toy. Wasn’t available when I was a child, or my little brother would have loved one

Yuppers. I think Duncan Hunter and Tancredo are taking some of each others oxygen politically. You put the two organizations together, the voters supporting them together,put both of their fundraising together, give the other a bit more debate time and a long-shot might get more traction.
