DUNCAN HUNTER FOR PRESIDENT!


Please attend what will be "the Main Event" for Values Voters in South Carolina for the 2008 Presidential Campaign, the Palmetto Family Presidential Stump Rally and Straw Poll.

And we bid adieu to...

Tommy Thompson. Maybe in another life and another time Mr. Thompson's candidacy would have gained more traction. I have the highest respect for Mr. Thompson. Jim Gilmore never gained any traction and now with Thompson's withdrawal, that leaves us with:

John McCain
Rudy Giuliani
Mitt Romney
Duncan Hunter (my choice)
Mike Huckabee
Sam Brownback
Tom Tancredo
Ron Paul

John McCain's chances have dwindled to very slim. The media was hyping his candidacy, the Maverick returns... yada yada yada. I was convinced from the very beginning that a McCain redux would gather little steam. What a difference eight years makes Mr. McCain.

Mr. Giuliani has become the candidate conservatives love to hate. His positions on abortion and illegal immigration have come under fire from the base and rightfully so. I have to admit that I am with Dr. Dobson on this one, under no circumstance could I vote for Mr. Giuliani.

Mitt Romney. As much as I hate to admit it, Governor Romney is the likely GOP nominee in 2008. Don't get me wrong, he's the class of the field in looks and polished performances. Has he convinced the conservative base of the GOP that he is truly in our camp? Perhaps, but the conservative jury is still out on Mr. Romney.

Duncan Hunter, in my opinion, is closest to capturing the essence and substance of Reaganism. Fair trade, 100% pro-life, pro-defense, the list goes on. The problem is name recognition and availability of funds. That's why I'm an eLeader for the Hunter campaign to help rectify that.

Look for further opinion snapshots of the remaining GOP candidates tomorrow...

Brownback: What will you do?

If you look at Sam Brownback's campaign website, you'll see an almost morbid preoccupation with Mitt Romney. Mike Huckabee is mentioned once as well. Where is your coherent plan for a safer America, Mr. Brownback? Where is your proposal for winning the War in Iraq? You seem to be spending an inordinate amount of time on Mitt Romney, but you've lost sight of your purpose. The most important question I have for you is why did you support amnesty for illegal immigrants? (Granted, no one from the Brownback campaign will read this blog.)

Calling it like it is

Unless I was in a medication induced fog, I believe I saw Joe Biden on Fox News yesterday morning. I'm a conservative, it's true. However, I don't carry water for any party when it doesn't deserve it. I must commend Senator Biden for having the guts to come on Fox News when his compatriots of the Democrat field have refused to do so. I don't agree with his issues, but it takes a man secure in his convictions to come into what is generally agreed as neutral or hostile territory.

Duncan Hunter on Compean and Ramos

I'm not a huge fan of CNN, but admit to watching Lou Dobbs for entertainment value. However, this segment with Duncan Hunter is most informative. It also reveals why Mr. Hunter would make a fine president.

Duncan Hunter -- Right on the Issues

The article by Mr. Madison was a superb piece of logical, rational persuasion that is the hallmark of conservatism. Here is another blog post that is worth reading. I am reminded of a saying by an old friend of mine in the DC Metro area. "Nothing was ever won by being pragmatic. Fortune favors the bold." So the campaign of Duncan Hunter is. Conventional wisdom dictates that he doesn't have a chance. The same was the case in 1979-1980 when an actor from California made an improbable run to the White House. Conservatives, don't give up hope. There is a candidate that not only speaks our language, but walks the walk as well. That candidate is Duncan Hunter. Why not sign up and contribute today?

Dubious Honor

It seems I have aroused someone's ire in the wild, wacky world of blogging. My blog has been nominated as Worst of All Time at Blogger's Choice Awards. At least someone thinks Good Sense rates enough enmity to be nominated. Thanks to whoever you are!!!
