Does the left fear a REAL conservative?

Absolutely. If people get to hear what a real conservative candidate says and believes, they're toast. Sadly, the establishment 'right' is playing the same game.

If he had said “constitutional attorneys” instead of “lawyers”.

“Smoot Hartley tarrifs were a big part of the deepening of the great depression”

Another urban legend foisted for decades by the import lobbies.

I agree. He has a common sense approach, which will sell on Main Street, AND Wall Street.

I don’t know who I want as my President.

None of these are winning me over yet, but I sure as hell don’t want a dim in any fashion. If so many FREEPERS have different picks... how can we come together and PICK who to support?

He is very matter of fact and that is great, he needs to speed up his delivery a bit, and that is were his voice being weak hurts him, it sounds like he has a chest cold when he inhales.

Very husky sounding.

Huckabee makes a Goober and Gomer reference. Don’t think many people got the reference. Fred Thompson pipes in on that and lays a dud.

Reaganesque? Yeah, maybe circa the first 1984 debate. The one he lost.

Regardless of our individual preferences- these guys are (with the exception of Ron Paul) strikingly superior to the candidates on the other side.
