Is anyone else already tired of this guy?

To me he’s the Obama of the GOP - all sizzle no steak.

He won’t commit to run, doesn’t articulate conservative ideas, just a lot of platatudes and happy talk.

Why are so many star stuck?

I’m sticking with Hunter.

So what did this email tell us about Fred

Uh... not much.

For Petes sake Fred, what do you think about all the issues we need you to address?

I’m still with Fred but I want to say that I do respect everyone here who is supporting Hunter. I got a little angry on another thread at people who seemed to be claiming to be for Fred one day and then against him the next, based on the choice for campaign manager. I am truly skeptical of those people. I doubt they were ever “for Fred” at all, just saying that now to boost their argument.

But anyone who says “I’m sticking with Hunter”, I just want to say to you, Hunter is a good man. I can’t argue with you about your choice.

I’m still with Fred.

OTOH, I’ll stick with the guy who has more than a snowball’s chance in hell at winning the nomination.

Who you going to support when Hunter folds his tent?.... 3rd party or back another GOP candidate?

I'm getting tireder of him in a hurry.

He hasn't articulated a single specific position, his wife apparently is pissing off his campaign staff, and he keeps delaying his declaration date.

I'm not impressed...

You do realize that Congressman Duncan Hunter doesn’t even register on most polls: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/polls
whereas former Senator Fred Thompson is either leading or in second place in most polls. Also, the last time the United States elected a current or former House member to the presidency was Abraham Lincoln in 1860 (on a fragmented four-way ticket). Mr. Lincoln was our 16th president, while we are working on electing our 44th president next year! I’m sure Mr. Hunter is a fine man, a stalwart conservative, and might make a good president, BUT IT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!! Holding back support for Mr. Thompson merely makes it more likely that former Mayor Giuliani or former Governor Romney win the nomination. Is that what you want?! Have you ever heard the saying: “Perfect is the enemy of the good”?
