I like Hunter best, but Thompson is OK and may have a better shot to win.

In fairness, McCain and Huckabee belong on the list. Both imperfect, but unquestionably pro-life.

I vote WILLARD!

Thompson is electable, Hunter is not....a wasted vote in the Primary to place an un-electable candidate on the ballot only leads to a Hildabeast win.

Before we get the Fred followers saying that Duncan isn’t electable and is not gaining traction, here’s the latest evidence.

Here’s a recent poll showing Hunter at 4%.

Here’s an intrade link to the forum site discussing how Hunter might be gaining traction.

Here’s one showing Fred at 6%, and discussing why.

Fred has lost ~30 points at Intrade over the last few weeks, looks like it’s stabilizing at ~6%.

I’m punching the button for Fred at this point, but if his campaign doesn’t get traction, I’d settle for Mitt. Let’s face it. As I’ve said for 6 months, Hunter’s campaign is going nowhere.

Mitt Romney.

Here’s my reasoning:

I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to have Duncan Hunter as President of the United States, but I realistically don’t believe that he will get the Republican Nomination.

Fred Thompson would be great, but I think he entered the race too late and does not have the ability to overtake Rudy as the Republican frontrunner.

In order to prevent liberal Rudy from getting the Nomination, which would be a disaster to the Republican Party (even if he wins the Presidency), I would rally behind Mitt Romney. Mitt is conservative enough (barely), is best positioned in terms of funding, and will probably win in most states that have early Primaries, thus giving him the momentum to overtake Rudy for the Nomination

In short, it is my humble opinion that supporting Mitt Romney is the best chance of avoiding the disaster that would be a Rudy vs. Hillary General Election.

Fred’s my first choice, and the only one I’ve donated money to yet.

I like Hunter but don’t think he has a shot of winning.

I have to vote Fred Thompson.

Romney is too NE liberal for my tastes and anti gun.

I’m from NY so the possibility that anyone besides Rudy winning here is pretty far fetched. Therefore I’ll vote for hunter because there is still the possibility he could be VP or in the cabinet and he needs all the support he can get. I don’t want Huckabee to be VP

Duncan Hunter all the way. I am astounded that anyone wouldn’t, given a choice of these three. Why nominate anyone but the best? Why even expect less the best we can do? Seems to me that;s how we got into this mess in the first place. We should expect more of elected officials!

Well, my thought is that in the primaries, you vote for whom you would like to see as President.

In the general election you vote against Hilary, regardless.

I’m voting for Hunter in the primaries.
