Passing it on.. looking for some help in developing “the list”

[Always Right]

Until Hunter can actually raise his poll numbers, he is not the best candidate. You can scream at the top of your lungs that “Hunter is the best”, but Hunter is not winning in the market place of ideas. Campaigning is about WINNING votes, Hunter is not doing that. Coming up with the best list of conservative positions does not win elections. Hunter needs to find a few issues that resonates with people and then effectively articulate it. Screaming I am the most conservative by itself doesn’t win elections.

[Into the Vortex]

Well, I’ve got one for ya, but it’s not an excuse, it’s a REASON....I like Fred Thompson because he isn’t a career politician. He seems to view them with the same suspicion that I do. It’s also a plus in my book that he does not represent Baaaston, Nooo Yawk, or Kalifawnia. The man will win his state, plus the rest of the all important south when push comes to shove. That being said, I would certianly support Duncan Hunter if my favorite candidate were not in the race.

#4 – DUNCAN HUNTER SHOULD RUN IN 2012 or 2016 NOT 2008.

he can’t have 2016. 2016 is the first election i’ll be old enough to be president, and you guys all should be voting for me :)

[Sonny M]

I actually think he is going to drop out after super tuesday.

As much as I like him, he is ideal for office, not for campaigning, and he isn't an attention whore, which seems to be a prequisite for office nowadays.

[Antoninus]

And the #1 reason is:

“Duncan Hunter can’t win because I don’t want him to win. I’m a closet liberal troll trying to influence conservatives to vote against their vested interests at elect the most liberal Republican out there.”

[edsheppa]

#5 - Hunter supporters think 10=4 :-)

But seriously, shouldn't you make your #1 "Hunter wouldn't make as good a president as X?"

[Joann37]

david, I keep hearing people say that his service in the House has not adequately prepared him to be POTUS (if you want to use that for one of your reasons).

But I vehemently disagree!

[Joann37]

Hunter on CSPAN NOW!!! (addressing the House re: military equipment)

[WFTR]

What I usually here is “Duncan Hunter? Never heard of him.” I try to talk to them, but generally people aren’t going to be excited about a candidate if their first exposure is not related to something big in the news.

[MaggieM]

“#3 - DUNCAN HUNTER IS NOT “ELECTABLE” BECAUSE HE IS TOO CONSERVATIVE”.

With excuses like this one, it is no wonder the GOP is in the mess it’s in!
