Hunter needs something to jump-start his campaign. He’s been under 5% for a year.
Regardless of what you think of Farrah, the endorsement has to be considered a plus for Hunter. He needs to make a strong showing in Iowa.
I listened to a DH interview on a local talk radio station a couple of days ago and I have to admit I was very impressed.
I’m sticking with Fred (I still think he’s the more electable of the two conservatives running) but I have to admit, Duncan sounded VERY good.
And thank goodness they spelled Duncan Hunter's name right! He gets more visibility (which is needed) to combat the MSM which brainwashes voters that he "cannot win". (Liberal self fulfilling defeatest prophecies).
He stated that in a too absolute way, but just to let you know, there are a number of Christians who believe that as well (that dinosaurs co-existed with man.) It is not agreed on, of course, by all Christians... and it definitely is nutty to non-Christians. But I’m just saying, there are other Christians who believe that.
Thanks
Naw. If Farrah had endorsed Fred Thompson, it wouldn’t have been newsworthy. It would have been lost among all the other higher profile endorsements of consequence Fred is receiving.
What is most newsworthy of Farrah’s endorsement is that Hunter wasn’t even his first choice, that was Tom Tancredo — further putting Farrah in light and his endorsement in context. And lets not forget that Tancredo endorsed Romney, not Hunter when he dropped out himself. I think the real story here is that now with Tancredo gone, Hunter has overtaken Keyes for the Unappeasable vote in the lesser watched GOP Political Suicide race.
Chuck Norris contributed some articles to WND. Chuck Norris, WND and Evangelicals, many feel, were responsible for the Huckasurge. The Huckster is now cleaning Fred’s clock and that doesn’t sit well on FR.
I think the consensus was that “Fred doesn’t dance to anyone’s tune” and at least indirectly alienated Values Voters and Evangelicals. Farah made a few remarks about dinosaurs but there can be no doubt he is on our side. I don’t know why he said those things, but weighed against his contributions to the conservative cause, it doesn’t really matter to me. Mine is not to further Darwinism but Conservatism.
It brings to mind the tactics of leftist Democrats to delineate conservatives as flat-earth rednecks because they dare place faith in something outside of Darwinism. I don’t know if he said what he said, to stir the pot, to goad or if he actually believes it. There seems to be a whole lot of things to like about the man and if you’re interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Farah
If I were to guess... he’ll probably go third party or call for a boycott. He’s completely nuts.
My tagline says it all. Duncan Hunter is worthy of the vote while the others are not.
Too bad. Seems as if all those endorsements are all for naught since Fred is incapable of earning it on his own and has lost what he had. Poor pitiful Fred is a desperation candidate. People don’t believe in him but are mostly voting AGAINST someone!!
No!!
I agree with the first statement, and I have no knowledge about the second so I can't comment either way. There is a group in TX that have proof men and dinosaurs walked the earth at the same time....
Of course that does not mean he is not a nut case, only that you have failed to prove the assertion...
The really impressive part of Duncan Hunter is not what he says, but that what he says is completely backed up by his 30 year record!!!!!! He's not the 'say one thing and do another when he's elected' politician like pretty much all the others.... He's the genuine article!!!
Excellent. Every endorsement counts and like him or not, Joe Farah has a BIG audience.
worth saying again... only louder :)
I'll Bump to that!
I heard Fred being interviewed early in the morning yesterday and he sounded terrible! He was very slow and his "ah's" and "uh's" were so distracting! By later in the day, when his answers had been more scripted, he sounded a bit better. I sure wish FNC had put Hunter on! There would have been straight talk that was intelligent! (with no "ah's" and "uh's")
Plus, I would have loved to hear Hunter's take on the Bhutto killing.

When you look around at various polls, Hunter is going up, while the others seem to be going down.(excluding the Paul spam bots!)
Hunter is ahead of the republican pack here, with 16 thosand voting. http://www.inboxrobot.com/search.php?makesearch=yes&keywords=Joint+OR+Committee+OR+Printing+OR+Joint&offset=25
