The political climate has changed quite a bit in the last three years. Iraq is hanging off of us like an albatross, and unless things get better over there and we're able to start bringing our boys home, they're likely to get worse. The public is tired of partisanship and they're going to vote for a candidate who is precieved as a moderate. Under those conditions, Duncan Hunter is not going to be electable.
The voting public came out in record numbers last time to vote for one of two candidates, both of who are perceived as extremists.
Dear Zeroisanumber,
"The political climate has changed quite a bit in the last three years.

If you think that part of the party's problem is the Iraq War, and that only moderate candidates can get elected, why in the world would you think that the candidate who has the most hawkish profile on the war (Mr. Giuliani) would be the candidate to be elected?

Zeroisanumber you get one vote, I get one vote, therefore you count for exactly Zero. Get over it.
