“Sorry for you.”

Just reporting the news.
Everyone knows the best candidates don’t always win. Without organization, a good candidate won’t go far. Duncan just didn’t build a good campaign organization. That’s his problem, not his message.

Who did you vote for? Did you vote? I agree that the best candidates don’t always win and that has been the problem! Yet here we have the best opportunity when conservatives were crying about a spineless GOP that continued to be beaten down by the Demonrats and here we finally get a conservative with a record of doing just that and who has a great record, communicates great, military service, knowledge in all areas, great combo of personal/political appeal and we are going for the ‘name’. Which allegedly leads to ‘electability’. We need a candidate who can keep together the different factions of the GOP AND bring in independents, youth. It just astounds me that Hunter has all the qualities that would lead to a strong general election candidacy and advancing conservatism and the GOP wants to settle for the same old, same old road that puts up candidate’s who they really are mostly just desperately supporting in this absurd fear. But the media blackout has had its effect along with people withholding support even though when they discover Hunter, they prefer him. That has been the biggest disappointment and if people don’t wake up we will all learn a little too late the error of these ‘electability’ assessments.
