DebatePolicy Presidential Poll - REPUBLICAN

[Pale Rider]

just trying to live up to the red state stereotype.....not sure i like any of them yet.....i usually vote for the guy i would like to work for and will run the company the best....i don't see a good CEO in the bunch....

I knew you were joking pard... and I'm voting for the best conservative that's strict on illegal immigration, and I've got the two best guys for that job in my sig line.

i would agree they are the two best for that single issue .... i see the US as a large company ..... so i tend to vote for who i want to run that company and for the potential cabinet they will deliver .... the board of directors if you will .... i also vote to try to make sure that who i don't want doesn't get in....that said...living in california....i never win....

I hear a lot of criticism about the "one-issue voter", and - in different circumstances - that criticism might have some merit. But, this particular election - involving this particular party - has turned the rules upside down. Every once in a while, an issue comes along that provides what the less than honest politician fears most: a window to his soul. Such an issue is immigration. The Republican candidates can blather until they're blue in the face; state your position on immigration, and you've told me all I need to know about you.

Tom Tancredo.

Hunter as well. I like both Trancredo and Hunter because both are very anti-Free trade with China. Most of the others are neocons that believe free trade with China is "good for our changing economy."

Hate to break it to ya Steph... but the voting is public. You choose Thompson.

All you have to do to view who voted how is click on a vote total on the right hand side and wwhhaaaalla!

Immigration - the window to the soul. Is the candidate a true conservative, ready to protect and defend the Constitution - or is he a globalist prick who has learned to mouth conservative-sounding platitudes whenever political expediency dictates? Immigration - the unerring locater of his true heart. I am not surprised by the two men's attitudes toward China; they would concern themselves with American interests.

I chose Tancredo over Hunter only because I know slightly more about him; they're both good men. Tancredo enjoys the distinction of being told by Karl Rove to "never darken the White House door again"; he ought to campaign on that. It is a badge of honor.

As always, it's Hunter for me.

[glockmail]

Giuliani, because he's the least bad of a pretty horrid bunch.

The only GOOD Republicans I could actually be proud to vote for aren't running (as of now, anyway).

It's pretty damning for a GOP candidate when a liberal would vote for him.

She voted for Duncan Hunter before she voted for Fred Thompson.

[stephanie]

She voted for Duncan Hunter before she voted for Fred Thompson.

tee hee..

I actually wanted to vote for both of them, but could only pick one..Whose bright idea was that...
