I agree. If I were Mitt I wouldn’t count Tanc’s chickens just yet.

Yup, shining the light of truth on Joe Isuzu Romney’s lying liberal flipflopping opportunistic record is like a cross to Dracula.

The only difference between Huckster and Romney is the accent.

While I fear that it may be true in many ways, I sincerely hope it is not. I think you certainly have to give Romney more credit in the business area, he's met payrolls and created wealth. I also think he'd be strong in the international arena, even if you believe the crap about him being a Trojan horse for the Mormon church, he still wouldn't let the islamofascists mess with America.

Also, I worry less about Romney being able to impose his religion than I worry about Huckster being able to get away with imposing his, especially in the area of illegal immigration. Tom Tancredo had to have those things on his mind when he made his endorsement.

Talking head on Fox just said Tanc is trying to stop a moving Huck.

Meaning?

I’m flabbergasted and can only believe the uncompromising warrior I met and spoke with one to one for half an hour is somehow put over a barrel through blackmail or threat of violence. Take into consideration that he’d already weathered the worst Rove and Kennedy could unleash.

I can not believe Tancredo would do this without some horrible threat being held over his head. FBI, if you flag these forums, here’s something to look at. Something’s dreadfully wrong.

Good riddance. Apparently the only gentleman in the agreement was Hunter.

"While I fear that it may be true in many ways, I sincerely hope it is not."

He's worse than you can imagine (and I emphasize again, I don't give a damn about his religion -- I give a damn about his record and his character). Take a look at the wreckage he left behind him as an elected official. He will be a nightmare that will make Clinton look like Reagan. No morals, no ethics, no principles. Uses his wealth to bribe Conservatives in good standing into betraying everything they stand for. He is NOT a Conservative. Everything he does is about advancing himself and everything and everyone else is dead last. He MUST be stopped at all costs. Tancredo sold us out for a few pieces of silver. Shame on him and damn him for it !

I mean that Romney shouldn’t count on Tancredo supporters running to join team Romney. It didn’t seem to happen when Gilchrist endorsed Huckabee (and then un endorsed him)

The sentiment on the issue is far stronger than loyalty to the candidates. Personally I think that’s a good thing.

“I doubt too many Tanc supporters are going to run to the Romney camp anyway.”

You can count them on the fingers of one hand.

Obviously it’s Fred or Duncan.

Well, Tanc tanked for me from the start of this race when he PROMISED he would not run if another candidate strong on immigration ran. He lied. Sorry, that’s a fact. I’m afraid some of the old claims by the open border lobby about him being a grandstander may be correct. If he cared about the border he’d have endorsed Hunter from the start. He and Paul have destroyed the chances of us really getting a conservative.

“He said Grover Cleveland was the last member of the U.S. House to be elected president.”

Grover Cleveland was Governor of New York, and never served in the House.

James A. Garfield was the only sitting member of the House of Representatives to be elected President.

Dang it, Dane, you may have finally been right about something. But if Jesus Christ had been for securing the border you’d have bad mouthed him just like you did Tancredo for YEARS.

I still want to know what’s creeping around behind the scene manipulating these things.

I believe the light of exposure would be beneficial to all. We don’t need this constant manipulation of polls, skewed reporting and all that crap without challenge. I KNOW there’s a force working against our country’s better interests. The Proof is the unfinished border fence and the recent package to take away the funding for the previously passed build vote. Neatly done in a non-recorded raised hand vote in the wee hours of the morning. The refuge of traitors bought by our enemies.

I’m disappointed in Tancredo for backing Romney. I guess since he’s not running again, he doesn’t care about what happens to America/Americans!

Something goes on inside the beltway. Remember when Lindsey Graham was a good congressman?
