You are absolutely right, AuntB. Two things I have seen in my area lately have caused me to think the problem is the lack of enthusiasm in the ones who support the candidate. While I was in a checkout line at the grocery store, I saw a Ron Paul flier taped to a soft drink cooler. Then a few days later, I saw a handyman’s van with a huge Ron Paul sign across the side.
I asked myself what is stopping us from having that kind of enthusiasm for our candidate? The only thing I could think of is laziness and allowing the other side to dictate who or what is electable. If we were as insistent and persistent in promoting our candidate as Ron Paul supporters are, maybe it would not matter so much that the MSM wants Hunter to fall off the face of the earth. I remember that even on this conservative site, it has been admitted that a good number of people have lost faith that one of the only true conservatives in this race can win.
Either we believe in what we stand for by working our hearts out to support one who believes as we do, or we will be left to support those who only love conservatives at election time. I have not given up. I will fight for my beliefs and if they don’t prevail, I will have done my best and I will trust the Lord for the rest.

Well, write letters to the editors about our great candidate Send by either email or snail mail word about him to everyone we know. Check to see if one’s precinct has a Republican Precinct Committee Officer, and if they do not, ask your Republican Chairman to appointed you. Then attend the local Republican caucus, representing Duncan Hunter.
Contribute generously to his campaign, requesting mailer cards, bumper stickers, and brochures, and make sure they don’t just sit on your counter, and distribute them to everyone you know and everyone you don’t know.
Call talk shows and ask them to have Duncan Hunter on their programs, or tell them what good things he has been doing.
These things all take a little time, a little money (the mailer card postage is only .27 cents)
One can, by contacting the local Republican chairman, receive a list of PCO’s for one’s county. Call them to remind them on Duncan Hunter’s behalf to watch a Republican Debate coming up.
There are many things we can do - have a garage sale and send the proceeds to the Hunter campaign -

We all have the enthusiasm, now here are some things we can do with it. Thank you.

You're right, they have passion and we could use a dose of that.
