Look bucko, they're viewed as unelectable, because they are unelectable. I like Tom Tancredo. He's a good man, but he has no chance. Romney has an outside chance and McCain is a long shot.

The primary race is between Rooty and Fred. I like conservative Fred and I like his chances. I know who you support. Liberal RINO Rooty. Stop pretending, you're no conservative.

That's why we end up with Republicans who don't excite any one and whom no one cares about... like Bob Dole in 96. I haven't see any one in this field who's really caught the "buzz." And a single primary vote hasn't been cast yet.

I guess I’m just another “Bucko,” but I have yet to see any reasonable explanation on these (or other) pages as to the ROOT cause that men like Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo are “unelectable.” This leaves me to continue in my opinion that there is an elitist back-room lot in the Republican Party that suppresses the candidacies of men like those who are currently the 1%’ers and the 3%’ers.

I pray that these men will find the wherewithal to remain in the race for the influence they can have on the Party for the right. I also pray that the ilite-empowered men at the top will somehow find it in the best interests of the Nation to use these men in important posts if they are elected.

We are being drug through the left-wing swamps by those who stamp their approval on the current 39%’ers and 22 %’ers.
