Interesting proposition. Hunter is a truly fine candidate, and would destroy Hillary. You Hunter guys now say Fred’s had his chance, and it’s time to throw in for Hunter.

But that just defies common sense, if you are truly pulling for guys like Hunter and Fred. At this late date, despite a total media blackout, Fred has visibility which is an order of magnitude greater than Hunter’s. If it’s too late for Fred, doesn’t it follow that it’s too late for an improbable Hunter surge?

Another thing I notice - you Hunter guys are angry that Fred’s more visible, so you try to bring him down. Yeah, it happens the other way too in the heat of the exchanges, but to nowhere near the degree.

It really doesn’t, the Fred was on top but has dropped steadily every since. I think he is now past the point of no return.

Duncan has been looked past all alon because folks have said “Buy he can’t win” “Nobody knows him.” etc.

Now that Fred’s campaign is all but over, I just think it would be smart to try to invigorate the one true full pedigree Republican in the race and see if with a significant (2 digit) number behind his name he might not catch fire with the general public.

It is frustrating that Duncan hasn’t garnered the support we have hoped for. However if you want the one person in the race who could possibly stop Huckabee, then you are looking at Duncan Hunter.

My opinion is that if Hunter doesn’t somehow catch a flame (I realize I may be hoping against hope (No Pun Intended)) Huckabee is a lock for the nomination and most likely the White House.
