Rudy is only 10% right on domestic issues and 80% right on national security issues, he is labeled as the UberRINO.
Fred Thompson is 80% right on domestic issues and 90% right on national security, but he isn’t good enough..
Duncan Hunter is 90% right on domestic and 90% right on national security, he also isn’t good enough..
Yea, I just pulled all those numbers out of my ass.. but you get my point.
Duncan Hunter just plain can't win for the same reason Paul won't: House members that are not in leadership positions (Speaker or Minority Leader) don't have a large enough base to run for the Presidency, and they don't have executive experience to run on.
If Hunter runs and wins a Senate seat (fat chance in CA) or gets elected Governor and can somehow corral the Demo legislature, that will make him a threat.
