He wins the primary, the money will roll in. You know that. To win the primary, he has to appeal to primary conservative voters. He is making great strides.

Make up? And take the spotlight away from Edwards?

That would be wrong.

It’s ok. The Duncan articles get up here. I just make sure they are posted elsewhere. :)

Divide and conquer :D

I would take a wait-and-see attitude, and since Duncan clearly is the better man...lets just continue to back him to the hilt, eh? And then see what finally shakes loose.

We know McCain is toast. As is Giuliani...neither man "knows it yet."

To my way of thinking, the only three potentially viable candidates comes down to Duncan, Thompson and maybe Romney. They all have things to commend them. Romney unfortunately has his social issues record which is not easily run from. Thompson has a short history, not as distinguished or productive as Hunter's [albeit there are others who dispute that as China watchers note here] but he clearly knows how to get media, and a good sound bite. A skill not to be overlooked, so long as his leadership capabilities...and strategic sensibilities... transcend that gift... And Duncan has shown he knows how to humbly serve. And has a cogency that truly makes for good media...but a gift which goes unremarked and unnoticed because he hasn't reckoned with a media intent on censoring him.

He also needs to expand his organization, and spend what it takes. He can't just wait for lightning to strike...he must "make a move" that flanks and scuttles the others. There may be time for that, but time is running out.

I would like to see Duncan Hunter use more of his resources. He has people signed up as volunteers. He should make someone from his inner campaign circle a point person between his campaign and volunteers. Evaluate what we have done to date. Give us instructions. Give us assigned goals or something. Right now, we are all just doing what we think we should be doing. Some aren’t doing a thing. I think a more streamlined group of tasks might be more affective.

Wasn’t Hunter one of the lone people fighting Clinton on his sell out of our west coast ports to the Chinese?

Hunter would likely get my vote.

Yes. He ramrodded a bill to block the port going to COSCO singlehandedly.

Hunter seems like he might be able to make a REAL difference. For that reason, he will never be allowed to take power. If he does some how fluke it off, and does not sell out, I fear something like the Kennedy assasination.

I think he would have quite good protection. He’s a favorite among the spook community.
