Tancredo Quits--Endorses Romney

Postby CHUQ on Fri Dec 21, 2007 4:21 am

Another one bites the dust........more to follow.....


Matt Johnson was driving to Tom Tancredo's offices in the Des Moines suburbs when he heard that his favorite candidate was dropping out of the race. "I'm going, 'What the heck? Jeez!'" said Johnson, standing in front of Tancredo's locked and already empty offices. Johnson had been on the last leg of the 90-minute drive from his home in Creston when he heard Tancredo's statement live on the radio. "I wanted to volunteer," said Johnson. "Oh, well."

Like most Tancredo supporters—and admittedly, it was an exclusive club; the Colorado congressman garnered just 3% in the latest Insider Advantage poll of likely GOP Iowa caucus-goers— Johnson liked Tancredo's stance on illegal immigration. "He represents a lot of what Americans believe," Johnson said.

I didn't see much about his take on the issues that I could relate to.

It's impossible to be an effective leader of a country when everyone thinks you are stupid.

Basically, IMO, he was a one issue candidate--immigration, a waste of time and money on his part.

Hi,

Why are these people running for nomination? I mean, they must have known from the start that they stand no chance, yet they spend a lot of money.

Hiya dtommy...I forgot to welcome you...sorry about that...why do they run if they know they cannot win? A very good questions with a massive amount of answers. Ego, political rep, wishful thinking, etc. Only the candidate could answer that, but would not answer it truthfully.
