Some people learned from the debacle of 1992. I would rather a republican over a liberal any day, and refuse to cut off my schnozzola to spite my gorgeous face.

What I learned is that GWB is more liberal than Bill Clinton.

He has out spent Clinton in every category.

He has left the borders open to support the SPP/NAU.

I could go on and on but…

I voted for lesser of two evils, GWB and what that got me was another Jimmy Carter.

I will not vote for the lesser of two evils again. The top tier candidates that the RNC is pushing are all RHINOS or worse.

Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo are the only two candidates that have not sold out to the CFR Global Government elite also known as the Rockefellar Republicans despite your protest.

The top two do not even believe in the 2nd Amendment and McCain would like to abolish private gun ownership.

Sorry, I do not believe the phony polls that the MSM touts, I am voting my conscience.

Tancredo or Hunter would be the best thing that could happen to the country.

People that say Tancredo has no chance in getting elected in Colorado need to explain how he has been elected in a landslide every time he has run. The naysayers all said he had no chance.

It is one thing to be a liberal republican. It is another to say that a republican who votes with the party 90% of the time is a RINO because they are not 100% pure.

Party loyalty should not be blind, but it does matter. I would rather govern and get some of what I want than be pure and in the minority.

Some who disagree with me on immigration would attack my conservative credentials. That is called intolerance.

Tom Tancredo ran as a republican. Therefore, if he loses, he should support the nominee. Otherwise, do not run as a republican. He should respect the 98% of the party that does not support him.

I would think you would place your labeling of “Far Right”, not on actual conservatives, but on the Ron Paul’s and David Duke’s of the world.
You even label Michelle Malkin as “Far Right”. Well, she is actually conservative and gutsy.
Lets Compare, shall we?
Michelle- goes to anti war demonstrations and posts pictures.
AJ- ???
Michelle- Geos to a war zone for 7-10 days to see Iraq for herself. And pays for it with her money, and any she got from her supporters.
AJ-????
Actually reads books, and writes reviews for them on the back jacket. Examples: America Alone, The Truth About Muhammad, In Mortal Danger, Whatever it Takes, etc.
AJ-????
Michelle- Actually interviews victims of Illegal Aliens, and goes thru reems of Government data to write a Best Seller.
AJ-???
Michelle- Goes to Illegal Alien Rallies.
AJ-???

It would seem that those who actually have the belief in their convictions are not affraid to DEMONSTRATE them.

Some are leaders in movements, other stay at home, close to their computers.

Some have guts, some have just keyboards.

Some have false names, some with guts, let their names be known.

Take care folks

So, basically you are Republican, right or wrong. That kind of thinking means that you will stand for nothing, unless it has Republican attached to it. In ‘06 Republican meant “we stand for nothing, we’ve lost our way and we are ‘me too’”. You and your ilk, like Rudy McRomney have destroyed the GOP.

On Mecca: don’t bomb it; move it to San Francisco. That should be interesting.

Tom Tancredo is a one trick pony who prefers provocative rhetoric to actual realistic solutions. 98% of the republican electorate is good enough for me.

As for the NAALCP debate (thank you Rush), of course it should be boycotted. If Thomas Sowell, Armstrong Williams and Roy Innis want to sponsor a debate, that would be different.

I am Jewish, and was delighted candidates addressed the RJC. They do not need to visit a GBLT Synagogue (yes they exist) to prove they care.

Respectfully,

I tip my hat to him. I maintain that I believe it is a mistake for the GOP to ignore minority voters regarding important political issues. Give Rep. Tancredo credit that it did not matter who is the audience, he stuck to his opinions.

Rep. Tancredo as Presidential Candidate:

According to FOX News Poll Oct. 23/24. MoE +/- 6

Rudy Giuliani 31
Fred Thompson 17
John McCain 12
Mitt Romney 7
Mike Huckabee 5
Duncan Hunter 3
Tom Tancredo 2
Ron Paul 1
Other (vol.) 2
Unsure 16
Wouldn’t vote (vol.) 4

John McCain (who Ms. Malkin thinks his campaign is on a “death watch“) has SIX TIMES the percentage as Rep. Tancredo.

Does that mean his campaign was DOA?

Tom Tancredo gets my vote, no matter what. Why? Cause he cares for America, from his heart. With all his limitations as a speaker, Tom Tancredo’s heart beats for America and that is enough for me.

So is that not the case for the front runners of the GOP? If Rep. Tancredo is such a great candidate, why does his campaign have only twice as much as… Ron Paul?

It is not because I disagree with him. It is because he has an all or nothing approach.

Ding! Ding! Ding!
Rep. Tancredo is known as the Immigration Candidate and… well… that’s about it.

Tancredo has little to no chance of being elected to the Senate from here in Colorado, and he has absolutely no prayer of beating Ken Salazar. Really kind of viewed locally as a one trick poney.

Well, looks like someone took the words right out of my mouth.

He gets my vote in the primary election. All others are saying whatever works in the moment.

Which leads me to a question that I’m curious who will have the courage to answer. Why isn’t the GOP supporting Rep. Tancredo? Is all of the other candidates are just saying what “works for the moment,” what does that say about the candidates?

Or worse, what are you trying to say about the other GOP primary voters who aren’t supporting Rep. Tancredo?

I’m very much interested in any responses I get because I believe that his candidacy was a great way for the GOP to show how much they wish to practice what they preach regarding immigration, “values,” etc… and Rep. Tancredo was left out in the cold.
