Fred Thompson's legal credentials easily eclipse Duncan Hunter's.

Thank you for making my argument for me. I readily admit, concede and APPLAUD the fact that Thompson's "legal credentials" eclipse Duncan Hunter, because America has had enough of the millionaire-lawyer-lobbyists in the White House. As for 'ending the career of a corrupt President', Thompson must not have been too dedicated to that objective because he was feeding information to the Nixon White House and giving them a heads up on potentially damaging developments, and Thompson has admitted to this. That is nothing to be proud of.

And if Thompson were that concerned about corrupt Presidents, he would have corrected his ethical lapse of 1974 by NOT cutting William Jefferson Clinton a whole lot of slack by putting obstacles into the impeachment process in 1998 when he should have known better. Duncan Hunter was four-square against Clinton, and for impeachment, as he should have been. In the Senate, Thompson was mediocre at best, and that's not saying much.

Kinda like this week in New Hampshire where Thompson has been all but 'AWOL'. But that's his problem.

And yours.

You make a post feebly attempting to make a negative comparison of Thompson's legal work with Hunter's. Then, when it's pointed out to you that Thompson's had quite an impressive legal career compared to Hunter's sole claim to fame that he helped poor (illegal?) Hispanics, you "APPLAUD the fact that Thompson's "legal credentials" eclipse Duncan Hunter" because, now, having impressive legal credentials is somehow a negative for a presidential candidate. Do you ever listen to yourself? You Hunterites are becoming more bizarre every day.

Hunter is a non factor in the presidential race. It's not because of conservatives, the MSM or any other factor outside Hunter himself. He is not popular, nationally, with either voters in general or Republicans. Deal with it. He has no experience in running anything but a local campaign and it shows. I know a hundred good people that are more consistently conservative than Hunter, and they won't be our next president either.

Rudy supporters made themselves annoyingly unpopular by attempting to raise their candidate up by attacking Conservative candidates. You, and other Hunter supporters, are following down that same road. It won't work for you or Hunter any better than it worked for the Guiliani supporters. You will only succeed in annoying people, hurting the candidate you claim to support, and, ultimately, helping make the next election a contest between two unacceptable liberals.

You might want to think about that.
