Good amunition to use for Naysayers, or when calling a talk show.

Let’s each of us call a talk show this week, or at least write an editor’s letter, to help Hunter’s number increase more.

Let’s strike while the iron is hot.

Someone needs to get through to those within the Hunter campaign and remind them that they can’t run a campaign without money. ( http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/index.asp?cycle=2008 )
They need some big money fundraisers. Selling ball caps and t-shirts is great and admirable but its not going to pay for nationwide TV and Radio ads. We all know that once folks hear/see DH they like him. Problem is there’s too much ground to cover and DH and crew are trying to cover that ground physically. Radio and TV waves can cover that ground much faster.

There’s still time but there’s no time to waste. DD

Thankfully there is now a radio ad in New Hampshire with Yeager on it

I have to say it. I am a dyed in the wool republican and have been since serving as an infantryman in Vietnam in 66-67. I have seen a lot of campaigns in the many years since then. This one is going to determine if the country becomes socialist under the rule of Hillary or improves under republican leadership.

That being said, you people have to face the cold hard facts of life. Duncan Hunter has the same chance of gaining the nomination as a snowball in hell has a chance of surviving. The only people that know who he is are people in southern California.

I have no doubt Hunter is a good man and has the right values but he has one problem, his supporters. They turn people away from Hunter by spamming forums all over the net and attempting to shove Hunter down the throats of other people. Hunter supporters have morphed into the same kind of people Ron Paul has supporting him.

Hunter supporters never have anything good to say about anyone other than Hunter. They have developed a history of attacking each and everyone that does not support Hunter as they do. As I said, take a long hard look at what you folks are doing. Rather than drumming up support for your candidate your tactics are turning people away.

As I said, I like him but, to be truthful, he is simply not presidential material. He is a career politician in the House of Representatives and has peaked. He can be an asset to a new republican administration but he cannot now nor will he ever win the nomination much less the presidency.

Time to place your support behind whoever wins the republican nomination.

hey logic… I’m with ya’ on the died in the wool part and i get where you’re coming from on the more, shall we say, offbeat fans. All sidwalk chalk aside, I don’t live in CA (thank God), i think spam is something that comes in a can and would never resort to the flooding tactics of the ‘ronbots’, have never carried a picket sign but have voted in every election since President Nixon.

I’m not sure that he has a snowballs chance or not… but he is the best candidate and that’s what I go by. Especially in the primary… if I’m gonna make a “statement vote” thats the time to do it.

Otherwise I’ll vote for the Republican candidate unless Hillary switches parties by then.

Exactly the thing I like to hear red. Support him in the primary but if he does not win shift the support to the candidate.

Duncan Huner will be on Bill Cunningham’s radio show, either this Sunday, or next Sunday.

Hunter was on Glenn Beck’s radio show, and Glen Beck likes Hunter so much, he is going to have Hunter on his tv show for a full hour, but it hasn’t been decided yet when.

That’s like a free one-hour tv ad. WTG Glenn Beck!

only tancredo would get my vote besides hunter we need to donate ………no moderate will ever get my vote again, ill vote independant first….
