Okay, here’s the scoop. There will be a Republican debate on December 12 in Des Moines, Iowa, by the Des Moines Register. Duncan Hunter will be flying out of Las Vegas 12/11, destination Des Moines.
ALERT: Duncan Hunter will be on the Jeff Katz show in S. Carolina, at 5PM EST today. the show airs 3-6PM EST. There is some talk about Freightliner moving to SC, or even to Mexico!

PING my post # 135.
I thought Hunter and Tancredo had been excluded from the Iowa debate. Am I thinking of the wrong one?
THANX Paperdoll!!!!
Here’s a link to the Des Moines Register:

Let’s tell them equal time for the candidates (or more time for Hunter :) )
At the above link, you can call, write, e-mail and ALSO, I noticed that there’s a link to send an editor’s letter. I don’t know if they will publish editor’s letters from another state, though. Anybody have friends or relatives in Iowa?
I would let them know that Duncan Hunter is a social conservative in the letter, because in Iowa, evangelicals prefer Huckabee 2 to 1 over Romney, and I think they would do the same for Hunter, if only they knew he was just as much, if not more so, of a social conservative as Huckabee.
I just sent my editor’s letter to the Des Moines Register, and after sending the letter, I read this:
“We don’t publish obvious organized attempts to flood us with mail on a given topic.”
So, whoever decides to write, maybe we should space our letters apart. :)
Again, if anyone has friends and family from Iowa, their letters would have the best chance of being published, and the Des Moines Register states the shorter the letter, the better.
