“He should endorse the honest one - Hunter.”

Yep. It might just be the boost that Hunter needs.

He dropped out, he wrote me, because:

“The presidential campaign has come down to less than a handful of viable candidates. Unfortunately several of them have abysmal records on immigration and can’t be trusted to do what is needed to preserve this country if they’re elected. My fear is that if I were to stay in this race my votes could be the factor in handing victory to a pro-amnesty politician. Friends, we have done too much, come too far and the stakes are too high to play that hand. And so I am ending my presidential campaign.

I know there are many more battles in our future and you can count on me to stay in this fight with you. We must continue to build the unquestioned momentum that is fueling our movement today. In the weeks ahead, I will write to you again to share with you my plans for the future, and for the immigration reform movement that is transforming American politics.”

So, while he isn’t endorsing anyone, I think it is pretty obvious from the timing (He needs to get going on his Senate run for Allard who is retiring) that he’s not done with politics yet!

He won’t endorse Hunter who has absolutely no chance of winning. That would be a wasted endorsement as Hunter himself (whose campaign emailed me asking for money recently) is probably close to dropping out. Regarding FT, his Immigration Statement—crafted by some big-name anti-Invasion leaders—is the strongest of the first tier candidates BUT Thompson has been his own worst enemy, running a campaign that is in dissaray. Would Tanc endorse Mr. Sleepy?
