You're probably right about Mr. Hunter and Mr. Tancredo, but I not happy with the thought of having to give up on them. There will be a sense of relief when the withdraw, but I sometimes enjoy making myself believe that maybe there's still a chance. That belief makes me feel better about the country.

Plus he has two first names.

LOL Thanks for the laugh. I once had a meeting with three guys with names like Ron Paul, Joe Allen, and Frank Bruce (not their real names). I remembered thinking as I went into the meeting, "Gee, three guys and not a last name among them." Of course, my last name is also a first name, so I guess anyone passing by the meeting would have thought, "Gee, four guys and not a last name among them." That thought only makes the situation funnier.

Hunter and Tancredo have no chance, but I’m not sure they should be excluded from the debates. There were some very good conservative points made tonight, and Tancredo and Hunter made a number of them. They know they have little or no chance, so they can let it fly. Hunter: “I will never apologize for the USA”. Bet you wish you said that, Rudy? Tancredo called Huckabee on being a big spender. Tancredo said, ‘too bad’ to the guys who want more H2B visa workers, said pay Americans a fair wage, and you’ll have workers. I don’t think these guys are necessarily taking away from the other conservatives like Thompson, and maybe Romney, but are useful in pointing out the liberal positions of guys like Giuliani and Huckabee.

Laugh not to cry, right? By the way, I'm a two-first name guy myself. Actually, I have two names that can be first OR last names.....
