"Nobody is tougher on illegal immigration than Cannon."
You mean Cannon of Utah, the guy who cosponsored an amnesty bill for illegal aliens in 2002?
Amazing, isn't it?
I have to admit, that sounds a lot more direct than Tancredo's transgression. Even though Mr. Anti-illegals should have been more careful, he's accused of hiring a contractor who may have hired some illegals (or maybe not).
But even so, this is small potatoes stuff. I know plenty of international students and they can't even have a lousy summer job. But I guess if you're going to be the point man on immigration law...
This race isn't about the "un-Cannon" and you should know better.
This race is a test of the Bush/Senate/Cannon immigration open border policy.
And that run off too was because of building immigration anger.
Well, from the looks of things, your guy ain't doin' so hot!
Scared of Birchers?
Hahahahah!
Isnt the primary where we as voters and activists are supposed to support those we want to win and work against those we dont? I dont see the problem.
Oh goodie, another bot circlejerk.
I am not advocating unseating Tancredo.
Although if I were giving a Congressional report card, he would get a comment that says "Does not play well with others."
Not at all. Birchers are a very nice reverse barometer.
Cannon has a 100% rating from the ACU. Tancredo wants to throw Cannon overboard because of a single issue he disagrees with Cannon on.
Linda Chavez never ran for office. She was an appointee for a cabinet position.
What was she elected to? Or is she another government feeder and non producer that you always accuse politicians of that you disagree with>
Big deal. Rat Congressman John Dingell has an A+ NRA rating. Doesn't mean I'm going to walk over broken glass to vote for him, considering that on all other issues he's a socialist. Same applies to Cannon.
Cannon may win the GOP primary but he's toast in the general. Conservatives aren't going to vote for an open-borders candidate.
Cannon's a socialist? You better check his ACU ratings.
Working against an incumbent is dangerous, especially if that incumbent wins.
The good news is that, if an immigration reform bill is passed, Tancredo is off the radar. He has NO OTHER ISSUES!!
