“What is amazing is Hunter is the one candidate we all agree we would vote for, and who we all agree is 100% on the Republican platform. But then we all say he can’t win and split up, each of us choosing a lesser candidate we feel can win, but who 15% or more of Republicans say they will never vote for. And 9 times out of ten we’re choosing the lesser candidate to stop someone else’s lesser candidate, whom we could never vote for ourselves.”
You are SO right! Why on earth are so many willing to settle for less that what America deserves? If the media were to be touting him, he would be in the top tier in one day, so why are we so willing to allow the media to dictate who we vote for? We don’t trust the media on anything else, why oh why would we trust them for this?? It suicide for the party.

I believe Hunter suffers from "Stevenson Syndrome", as in Adlai Stevenson II. He has all the qualities and correct positions for the base but will have little reach beyond that base and those who are willing to take the time to think about the issues. There are also going to be people a lot of people who he will turn off.
There is one story about a man who told Ambassador Stevenson he had the vote of every thinking man, to which Stevenson replied, "Unfortunately, I need a majority to win the election." or something to that effect.
There isn't an "anti-Hunter" conspiracy as there isn't an "anti-Huckabee" conspiracy or "anti-Paul" conspiracy (although the Paulists ...). Giuliani and Thompson have name recognition. Romney can buy what name recognition he doesn't already have.
