Duncan Hunter: Voted YES on Medicare Part D, NCLB, Transportation Bill, Pork-Barrel Spending

You forgot this:
Fred Thompson: Currently 1st or 2nd in many polls without even officially being a candidate.
Duncan Hunter: Not even breaking 5%, despite already running for the last 6 months.
Hunter may have many great qualities, but has no chance of getting the nomination. You trying to trash a good conservative candidate (who can win) with half-truths and distortions will not change that fact.
To: familyop
Yet Hunter still can’t lead his team out of the basement...
Have an acceptable explanation for that?
To: familyop
I didn’t realize Hunter had protectionist leanings. He isn’t anti-trade, but I wouldn’t call him pro-free trade.

Please, please PLEASE stop with the Duncan Hunter for President posts. He can't muster up more than 1% in any polls of GOPers, almost a year after announcing his candidacy
As a GOP congressman, he's awesome. As a candidate, he's a complete DUD. Enough already
