That is the oddest thing I have seen. You support Mitt, but like Duncan and eschew Fred, who is closer to Hunter than Mitt by a mile...
Odd...

Nothing weird about it in my eyes.
And I thoroughly disagree with you that Thompson is closer to Hunter. Maybe in body shape, but that’s about it.
I like Duncan Hunter far more than Fred Thompson. I initially supported Hunter, as well. Gave to his campaign and did some grassroots stuff for him. I just don’t see him as an effective salesman on a national level, and I eventually came to prefer Romney, who I’m now pulling for in the Primary.
Romney’s stances have been tougher on the border than Thompson’s, and that’s a primary issue with me and a reason I initially liked Hunter. I also like Romney’s business acumen, energy, and intelligence.
Hunter has served his country well. And if he wanted to run again in San Diego, I could see it happening. He’d do far better on a local level where he doesn’t need instant camera appeal.
