“If Hunter were to be nominated, the Demoncrats will try to paint him as unethical, claiming that he accepted nearly a quarter million dollars in campaign contributions from missile defense contractors over the past five years, including $46,000 from un-indicted co-conspirators implicated in bribing Hunter’s friend and San Diego colleague, Randy “Duke” Cunningham, who resigned from Congress after pleading guilty. Cunnningham is now serving time in prison for influence peddling.”

I’m not so sure the Rats would try to smear Hunter with that. If you check into it you’ll find that the defense contractor in question donated far more to top Demonrats and in fact every single member of the armed services committee received campaign funds from him.

The investigation into any possible wrong doing found none on any of them.

The Rats would be foolish to try to play that game.

They’re already playing it. Just google “Duncan Hunter Randy Cunningham” and you’ll see what I’m talking about. And it’s not just CommieRat hate sites, either. It’s USA TODAY, Sign On San Diego, The WaPo (which was so effective in destroiying George Allen), etc.

Duke Cunningham is the albatross that Hunter will forever have around his neck, just as Fred’s friendship with McCain is extra weight for Thompson to carry.
