Flame away.

[furquhart]

What's Tancredo like on other issues?

Is he a straight-out Paleocon? Or is he a standard conservative (pro-Iraq War and the rest) who simply wishes for a hard line against illegals.

[Godebert]

Cool. He's got my vote. Maybe he'll run on the Constitution Party ticket.

[mjtobias]

"U.S. leader told his counterpart he would continue to push for more lenient immigration policies."

I hope Tom doesn't cave in to Bush's guest-workers travesty.

And I hope he runs and puts an end to the 3rd world illegal and legal aliens invasion of our Christian country.

[Gator101]

Heh heh...Vicente Fox's worst nightmare.

If Tancredo got elected, I'd start buying stock in companies that make concertina wire.

[Bouchart]

Go Tancredo!

[mjtobias]

Tom Tancredo for President in 2008/2012.

[Trteamer]

How about a Tancredo/Gingrich ticket. That would put the leftists into meltdown.

[Forgiven_Sinner]

Jeb Bush is still my favorite candidate for '08. I will consider Tancredo's positions against his and decide.

I like Tancredo on immigration but I am concerned about his electability--not because he's a conservative, but because he's a congressman. He needs to be a successful governor before he becomes a candidate.

[who knows what evil?]

What a surprise...Tancredo wasn't here in New Hampshire a few weeks ago just because he likes 'mud season'...

[AgThorn]

Tancredo pointing to the 'obvious' for the benefit of instructing the border patrol ...

[AgThorn]

[Sterco]

Even if he does not get the nomination he brings a very valid point to the party. A point that had better not go unheeded.

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

Come back rod, I need this thread bumped.

[Fenris6]

...he would run for president in 2008 if no other Republican candidate takes the border issue seriously. "I'll tell you what," he said, "if no one else does, I will do it."

No idea who he is but he has my full attention now.

[Sterco]

The Issue!!!, The Man, The Plan!!! Go Trancedo you have my vote guaranteed. Obviously he understands immigration law. Look at the signs!!!

[COEXERJ145]

Tancredo is nothing but a puppet for Pat Buchanan and his isolationist dream of a walled in America that allows no one in. He is more interested in being told he is next to God and getting money for his PAC than actually doing something about the border. Perhaps if he wasn't a self serving megalomaniac who only cares about having his ego stroked by his small but loud group of followers something could actually be done about the borders and immigration. However, he and his few cronies are just enough to scuttle any solutions. The Democrats won't vote for anything the Republicans sponsor and Tancredo and his ilk won't support it unless it is his idea alone. In other words, nothing will change on the border. Nothing will be done to try and find a solution to the current problem. Then Tancredo will get up and lie his butt of and claim he alone can solve the problem when in fact he is the biggest obstacle to any rational solutions.

"Oh Tom, you're the only man who can save the United States."

"Tom darling, we bow at your all knowing feet. Please all knowing one run in 2008. Either win the Republican nomination or make sure the evil Republican's don't win the White House."

Running Tancredo will do three things. He will ensure Hillary Clinton becomes the next President. He will ensure that Congress and the White House are controlled by Democrats for the next 40 years, and he will ensure that just like blacks, Latinos vote Democrats by 90% or more.

If Tancredo was truly serious about immigration and the border, he would work with the President and other members in Congress to find a solution all sides could agree on. Other than the Democrats, no one is proposing "amnesty" like the Bush hating Tancredo lovers like to throw out. The President's suggestions and Tancredo's aren't that dissimilar but Tancredo's ego is not going to allow him to play second chair to the President. Unless he is able to stand up and claim "I solved the illegal immigration problem" he would rather see nothing be done. This way he can stand up and whine some more and ask for donations.

[AZ_Cowboy]

No flames from me, pardner. He seems solid enough to me. I'm a little disappointed about that gun show business, though.

I wouldn't worry too much about some of the enthusiasm he might get from some of the groups that have come up. The MSM tried to slime Bush over the Prescott Bush banking thing as well, and it was a flash in the pan.

[jveritas]

Woohooo! Yeeppee! YESSSS!!!

Tancredo will become the GOP presidential candidate in 2008 by receiving only 3% of the GOP votes in the primaries and then he will become President by receiving a record breaking 2% of the total vote.

I cannot hold my excitement for such great news! I wish I can post these green jumping frogs that you see at Dummieland.

End of sarcasm.

[ChicagoHebrew]

As they said on Dragnet ... dumb, da dumb dumb, dumb...

Congressmen can't get elected. They can, however, make royal arses of themselves (see: Dornan, Bob; Kucinich, Dennis)
