No thanks. I am a Duncan Hunter supporter.

Good man, but I don’t think he can make the top spot. I would love to see a Thompson/Hunter ticket — the only two REAL conservatives on the horizon.

The only republicans who have more delegates than Duncan Hunter are Romney and Thompson. According to this article, there were no delegates selected in Iowa.

First G.O.P. Delegate Goes to Romney (Romney, Hunter Leading in WY)
New York Times ^ | January 5, 2008 | MEAD GRUVER
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/05/us/politics/05cnd-wyoming.html?_r=1&adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1199563235-58hBRHoYXSVDHcyr25G/Fw&oref=slogin

“Wyoming chose the first 12 delegates of 2008 at 12 separate county conventions. Iowa Republicans, who have 40 delegates, conducted a straw poll but elected no convention delegates Thursday.”

So, that means that Romney has the most delegates (8), Fred has 3 and Hunter has 1, going into New Hampshire. I see now that Hunter was wise not to campaign in Iowa, and where he did choose to campaign he drew blood. You get more bang for the buck with Hunter.

The New Hampshire GOP withdrew its sponsorship of tonight’s debate.

The fact that he’s being excluded from New Hampshire debates is probably a historical first. The GOP is late in waking up to the fact that the media hates conservatives.
