Bill Salier is a fine man.

If it wasn’t for the betrayal of conservatives by the RNC in the 2002 primary, there’s a decent chance he’d be a US Senator right now, and Commie Tommy Harkin would be retired.

Trancredo had an intersting interview on ABC this morning. He said, in effect. I wish these guys would all level with us and tell us what they really believe. Just the way he said it impressed me. He wasn’t spinning.

In 2002, he was a first-time candidate when he ran for the U.S. Senate. Salier pushed an unbending anti-abortion, anti-taxes, anti-big-government message. In the Republican primary, he was out-spent 10-1 by a sitting congressman, Greg Ganske...The under-funded Salier took 41 percent of the GOP vote...

That is quite impressive. 4`% while being outspent 10-1 by someone with real name recognition...I can understand why other campaigns wanted him.
