Tancredo attempts to knock Romney by observing he looks presidential, presents himself well, is “very smart” and also “competent.” Which makes Romney, he implies, precisely the sort of man the GOP can’t afford to nominate. Is there a word for……

Sure, Tancredo stampers on occasion, but his platform is solid, and his message is dead on. Are we electing the next leader of the Toastmasters or president of the United States? -bucktowndusty

I happen to agree with most of what you said, Buck. Tancredo has said all the right things, not necessarily with effective delivery. At times it is painful watching him struggle to get the words out. I like what he has to say and have confidence in his message.

As long as he can stop the immigration disaster from being rammed down the nation’s throat, he can “stammer” all he wants.

I’ll take Mitt, Rudy, Hunter or Tancredo over anything the Dems have up this [their] soiled sleeves.-profitsbeard

Absolutely, Profitsbeard! Don’t forget – Fred Thompson! Now Fred has a gift with delivery of his message. Combine Fred with any of the above mentioned candidates for the ‘08 ticket. . . and I’m satisfied.

Bleg: What is that code?

The other candidates sure are helping out Romney.

Well, I think it’s the cream of the crop that makes the rest look bad. Romney is clearly the best candidate, with Rudy in a close second. Huckabee is okay, but the rest of them are just posers.

The other candidates sure are helping out Romney.

No, they’re helping out hillary. Romney is the GOP version of Borat Obama. He’s an unknown gov of a nothing state. Yes, he’s very pretty, and he probably gives a good speech. However, he won’t be president. Close your eyes, hold your breath, make stupid jokes about Fred Thompson..then open them on election day 2008, and Romney still won’t be president. Personally, I think the immigration bill will kill any chance of a GOP victory in 2008 no matter who we run; but only Rudy or Fred have the name recognition to challenge hillary….and that will be mean little once her war room goes to work on them.

You do want to be thought of as not that petty, right?

I’ll take Mitt, Rudy, Hunter or Tancredo over anything the Dems have up this soiled sleeves.

Mitt does look good in a number of ways but it’s his beliefs, what he intends to use as a guide and his trueness to us and our Conservative values that I want to know for sure will follow him into office.
No more Georgi porgies’ I’m done with betrayers, only the best will do.

The fact is though that the Republican candidates are much higher quality individually and overall than anything the Democrats have to offer.
Really ‘compared to past years’ a very good bunch to choose from.

I bet you went out of your way to find a screen grab that made Tancredo look his worst. You’re no better than the USA Today hack that I busted manipulating Condi Rices Photo.

For the life of me I can’t understand why you constantly trash Tancredo with your “humor”. You know Guillanni, Romney, and all the other candidates besides Paul and Hunter are flip floppers on immigration. Considering this is the most important issue facing us today, it’s illogical for you to pick fun at one of the only men that would actually do something to fix this problem.

Heh. Yeah, obviously the clip was highly truncated. Still funny, though.

“Mitt is smart, good looking, and capable to lead the country, but he isn’t principled enough for conservatives”.

Tancrendo has this unbelieveable, earth-shaking victory in the House to wit everyone is in awe, and then he sits there and makes a total dip-wit-s**t out of himself.

Romney IS the man this country needs. Work Rudy and Fred into the Admin. I can’t say at the moment what the VP ticket should be but Romney is the guy who will whip DC into shape. Period. Forget Rudy’s tap dancing and the mania that has been attached to Fred! Romney is the best at the moment. And being a mormon’s got NOTHING to do with it.

Screw intelligent and good-looking. I can do without competence. Give me the guy who looks like Blinky from The Simpsons.

Is that what we as Republicans want?

Heh. I’d say so. He can be the GOP fundrasing chairman. President? Nobody is taking out Fred, nobody.

Does tank have ADD? A great move on the immigration front the other day, then this? Focus, man, focus.

What was the rest of Tanc’s take?

Heh. Yeah, obviously the clip was highly truncated. Still funny, though.
