I still think Hillary Clinton has the most experience to run this country and bring us back strong. Obama does not. Maybe in 8 years he might. If everyone listened to Hillary and what she can and will do for the people how can you not vote for Hillary Clinton. Just think about it. I just do not get what the people are thinking. Go Hillary!!!!!!!!

Send Duncan a donut!

WOW!!….CNN (Clinton News Network) actually put Duncan's name and picture up on it's web site. Amazing what kind of coverage you can get AFTER you have dropped out. America lost this weekend. May God have mercy on your souls. Funny what money will do for you and your campaign. Funny what owning a part of Baine Communications will do for you as well.

Hunter was one of only three Republicans I could have voted for. Now there is only Ron Paul left. And where are all these remaining guys hiding on MLK day? I have heard nothing on participation at any of the many commerations by any Republican candidate. Anyone have a story about this? Am I right on that?
It seems that the inherent racism of the right wing is on display.

If you are a hard core conservative and want to see a change in this nation, i suggest checking out Ron Paul. He placed Second in Nevada and is in it for the long haul. He is being marginalized by the mainstream, but has the money to keep pushing. ronpaul2008.com Check out his record. Youtube :Ron Paul Hope for America

For all you Hunter supporters: where was your candidate when all these illegals were coming in the country with the blessings of big business to fulfill their desire for cheap labor? He, the Chambers of Commerce (a repub. front for the most part), and most of you, turned a blind eye while the case was made that it benefited business. Now that YOU helped lure them here, you send out your attack-dogs like Hunter to stoke racist fears in the ignorant wingnut populace for political gain. Good riddance to another wingnut goon!

As someone else on this thread indicated, you R. Paul supporters are wasting space, in more ways than one. Paul is a defender of the constitution all right, especially the part where blacks count as ~40% of a person. We're also likely to find that Paul and the other so-called constitutionalists (like Scalia) look down on airplanes, automobiles, satellites, etc. because they are nowhere mentioned in the constitution. The Paul approach to law approaches the moronic. My only surprise is that such an approach doesn't get more traction in the wingnut electorate…..just goes to show how loony-toons the other repub-bot candidates must be to attract such a voting block away from Paul!

Mike Huckabee wants to amend the Constitution to prevent children born in the U.S. to illegal aliens from automatically becoming American citizens, according to his top immigration surrogate , James Gilchrist,— a radical step no other major presidential candidate has embraced.

He would force a test case to the Supreme Court to challenge birthright citizenship, and would push Congress to pass a 28th Amendment to the Constitution to remove any doubt.

He thinks the case against U.S. Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean was railroaded. "I would make it my first act as president to pardon agents Ramos and Compean."

RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT!

I didnt know much about hunter, but I am sure he was an ok guy. Ron Paul will be the next to go. Probobly because his followers are anti mormon. Anyone hoping to see Romney drop out of the race is going to be sorely disappointed. The man is either going to be president or vice president. And come on this is a vote, people are voting for who they like. Thus if someone dropped out they must not have been the best choice for enough people. I guarantee if no one knew Romney was a mormon he would be carrying more than half of this country. If Ron paul is not a bigot maybe he could be VP.

I also dropped out of the race today. Hunter only got one more delegate than I did, and I didn't even have to spend any money!

Well, he got one more delegate than I got. Then again, I haven't been spending a year campaigning nor am I running for President. Nonetheless, it was a close race between me and Duncan. Now if I get one more delegate, I'll be tied with Giuliani!

Another hopeful contender unaware that his stance was totally out of sync with the feelings of the American voter.
R.I.P.

Dear Congressman Hunter:

Please throw you support behind Ron Paul. He is the closest to your position than any of the rest. He needs every vote possible.

Tom

IT IS CHARACTER AND HEART, AND NOT JUST EXPERIENCE THAT CHANGES WORLDS, JUST LOOK AT MARTIN LUTHER KING AND OTHER GREAT FIGURES WHOSE CHARACTER AND HEART CHANGED THE WORLD!!!!

obama for president!!!

Was Duncan Hunter EVER really in the race??

Good riddance to a war-mongering, children's healthcare opponent, and waterboarding advocate candidate. I and 16 Iraq war veterans thank you and ask you to retire in disgrace before you do any more damage.

James,

You have no idea how much people love Ron Paul and his message. He is the only canidate that cares about the constitution and the only Republican who wants a smaller government. We love Ron Paul and the movement he stands for!!!

You are a honorable man Mr Hunter,

Duncan Hunter belongs in prison.

You can tell that Ron Paul has raised a lot of money by the fact that he must be paying people to get his name out. Please can we stop the Ron-bots, they are wasting space on the internet.

I am just wondering what is taking Dennis K. and Mike Gravel SOOO long to get out of this race. They are not posting any good results so, why don't they see the light and get out of the race.

The media didn't like him. The media chooses the candidates.

This incredibly stupid, war-mongering buffoon finally pulled out of a race he never had any chance in at all?

Perhaps he does have at least (1) brain cell…

I guess I'd be happier to hear Hillary, Obama, Huck and McCain all drop out

It's always sad when a true patriot, and a man of the truth, like Tancredo or Hunter leaves, Hunter has proven records he BUILT THE WALL (a section). The ravages of illegal immigration in Mexifornia say it all about the need of a wall and tough anti laws. But Hunter had low percentages, so him leaving is no suprise

But the thing that puzzles me more is why does Hunter leaving make some columns but RON PAUL second place in NV draws almost no attention to medias? Why do they silence sb who is SECOND? Why were they all over Obama and Clinton and Huck etc (top 5) in Iowa and NH but here someone gets second and he is barely shown (just by obligation in listings)?

Well at least Fox News will have room in their "trailer" for all the candidates next time!

Maybe he can throw his one delegate to Ron Paul?

See ya, Duncan Yo-yo!!

Duncan Hunter was still running?

Duncan Hunter could've restored what America has lost including MORALS. We don't have one running with the integrity and morals he had. He Is by far the best man that's why the media dropped him.

Keep on voting for all the candidates with the big money that are controlled by the Special Interest Groups and keep getting the same results.

So sorry you puppets are waiting on the media to tell pull your strings. .Wake up Robots.

Go Ron Paul!!

You've got the most money and most loyal supporters. They are slowly dropping out. They know NOTHING about the dollar. People will regret not listening to you, but they will seek you soon. No other candidate is a good economist. That is what we need!!!

You were #1 in Nevada!! Just factor out the Mormons and you really won!!

Duncan Hunter was a good man who was down to earth and I hope he endorses Mike Huckabee for President.

You absolutely never had a chance.

I'm supporting Mitt Romney because I think he's the best choice for the Presidency, but I still think it's too bad Duncan Hunter wasn't able to get his name out there to the masses. He's a good man and a good conservative. I hope he'll throw his support behind Mitt Romney.

It does not matter . The country is so sick of the Republicans any Democrat will beat the NY Crook, the world is flat freak from Ar, the flip flopper from Mass, Or the old man from Az. The party is over for the Repukes. So the loss of an angry nobody means nothing.

McCain will drop out soon. Medical problems i'd presume. Look at him, if he were a family memeber I'd be considering some type of assissted living

Duncan Hunter fans, please now consider Ron Paul. His views dovetail nicely with your own and frankly, do you REALLY want to vote for Romney or McCain considering their less than ethical backgrounds and liberal policies?
Guliani and Thompson…..come on be real. Both are as liberal as Hillary don't waste your vote!

-john
"McCain should drop out. Huckabee & Thompson are getting over 40% of
the vote in South Carolina, and this proves he can't carry the south."

Try again John, McCain won South Carolina.

Thompson will be the next to out, unless it's Ron Paul.

I didn't know Duncan Hines was running for President! I love your carrot cake!!!

No No, I'm not dumb, its the comments on this page.

People are jumping on who should jump out based on who they don't like!!!

None of the top three on either side will drop out before march. Get a grip!!

Thank GOD Hunter dropped out, maybe he could've done this 6 months ago and saved us the trouble of hearing him at the debates. What a waste of time.

Most men in the army come from conservative families so they should've have to serve with gay men and women?? You're out of your mind. I'd love to see the stats on the "conservative families" it is VERY clear why no one voted for your hopeless campaign.

You wanted to clean up washington and stop the spending?? Ya, lets spend it instead on a friggin wall between us and Mexico. Have you heard of this country called Cuba?? If people without any money, resources or an understand of the english language can cross a portion of the ocean, patrolled by the US Coast Guard, in a boat made of milk cartons, explain how a wall is going to stop Mexicans??? GREAT idea. Too bad you can't be president.

Duncan Hunter was the only true conservative that reflected tradtional Republican values on EVERY issue. There was no questionining his authenticity like with all the other " Republican " candidates. You can't trust Romney, McCain, Guiliani . They have all shown their liberal stripes. Huckabee will NEVER get elected. That leaves only Ron Paul. Oh well. I will vote for Paul but my heart wishes it was Duncan Hunter. I guess it's our turn for an election fiasco.

It's too bad Duncan Hunter wasn't able to get a bit more traction. He's ten times the conservative that Huckabee, McAmnesty , and Giuliani are. He's been an excellent Congressman for CA. He's smart. He's got great experience. Like others, I think he'd make an excellent Secretary of Defense. He could even be a VP consideration for Mitt Romney.

It's about time. Hopefully Fred Thompson is immediately next. Then after Florida, Giuliani and Paul will call it quits. Leaving Romney, McCain, and Huckabee.

Hunter is a good man with integrity.
Your main issue was "the border."
Other issues such as tax reform, education, gun rights and others match Ron Paul.
You don't agree with Dr. Paul on everything/
Since you have exited the race, he is the only GOP candidate left who has integrity.
You should endorse Ron Paul.

I like Duncan Hunter and I wish him well but I support John McCain for president. Fred Thompson needs to get out of the way and I will chortle with glee when Romney gets knocked out of the race.

What a joke of a campaign. He should be in jail with Randy 'Duke' Cunningham.

I certainly hope Duncan Hunter supports Ron Paul! Considering the media bias against Dr. Paul, he is doing extremely well, and has raised enough money and support for the long haul! Follow the money…Ron Paul is genuinely a fiscal conservative and constitutionalist!

Good Riddance I say! Nah-nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah-nah, Hey-ey-ey, Good-bye!

Took him a LONG time to realize that. Duncan Hunter is exactly like Tom Tancredo, except much less intelligent. (At least Tancredo knew when to call it quits. And he put pragmatism above principle and endorsed someone who might win the nomination.)

Who is next? My money is on Giuliani. He should definitely drop out! It looks like a three-way race between Romney, McCain, and Huckabee. And Ron Paul is the "tortoise" of the race. But we will see how Mayor 9-11 does in Florida.

Hunter is a great man. He will be missed. Maybe he can take the White House in 2012 or 2016.

There are only two true conservatives in the Republican party. Fred Thompson and Mitt Romney.

Too bad that poser, McCain, won South Carolina. He and Huckabee fooled an entire state into thinking they were conservatives when they aren't.

Go Mitt!!!!

Hunter would've made an EXCELLENT president.
Hope he endorses Romney, the next best choice, and by far the most electable conservative. Hackabee is a joke on everything but the 2A, McCain's a RINO through and through, Rudy a sack of corruption, and Fred's a fine actor and lobbyist, but not a leader or a problem solver. Ron Paul- I support the guy, but Hunter's supporters won't likely flock to Dr. No.

Best wishes to Rep. Hunter. I hope the remaining candidates take your message to heart and secure our borders.
I'm curious to see who he chooses to endorse, and sincerely hope it's not Huckabee.

Mr Hunter, sorry things didn't work out for you, but on the Republican side you never really caught on. Good luck in the future.

I suspect Thompson and Rudy will be following your lead shortly.

World won't miss.

BACK TO THE STONE AGE HUNTER!

clinton and mc cain..this country be coming going to the hell ,they let china ,mexico cheap labor to ruining us and they not attention for citizen ,

We dont want vote democraps because we have more than the 35 IQ which is most common for the morons that always vote for democraps. Since her husband already sold 98% of everything thru NAFTA Billary is anxious to unload the other 2 %.

If Billary becomes president she'll replace our justice dept with LA RAZA and sell everything own by goverment to china or anybody else that will pay her a salesman's commission.

FOR SALE – UNITED STATE OF AMERICA
REAL,REAL CHEAP
CONTACT BILLARY AT WHITE HOUSE
(WHITE HOUSE ALSO FOR SALE)

I liked Duncan and have no idea why he gained no traction among voters. Probably a combo of things: Lack of mass appeal, not advertising enough, field just too crowded already, among other possibilities. x……..Greg………..

Hope he endorses Romney.

We went to the "Town Meeting" with Duncan Hunter last night. His views are so very conservative, but he just didn't have the funds to out advertise his fellow Republican candidates. My wife even spoke for him at our Nevada Caucus this morning! He really would have been the man for the job!
We wish you well, Duncan Hunter…we wish you well.

This is truly sad. I'm a huge Huckabee supporter, but think Hunter has got great plans.

Eric Worthington, take a deeper look into Huckabee and his immigration experiences. He's just making up new stuff (actually he borrowed it from Romney) but Huckabee will in no way make it to the Presidency. Anyone that is the Dem nominee will eat him up in throughout the race, easily. The man could hardly hold back tears when Romney put on factual ads about Huckabee's record as a politician. They weren't attack ads either. They were factual, he just couldn't take the heat and the religious right nutcases here in Iowa couldn't see past their pulpits and voted with their blinders on and ear plugs in.

Huckabee couldn't win the White House running against Winnie-the-Pooh.

McCain – The Lib The RINO 37 %
The Rest of the pac conservative 58%
and then there is Ron Paul 04%

Conservatives are winning, but we need to narrow down the party

Sorry California, this means he'll be coming back home.

I was suprised when Tancredo endorsed Romney, I certainly hope Hunter see's through the rhetoric and endorses Huckabee. With the strongest Illegal Immigration plan and A+ grade on 2nd amendment from both the NRA and the GOA, clearly Huckabee should be Hunter supporters next in line.

hunter who?

Duncan is a good and respected man. I would like to see him as a Veep with Romney. Man, Romney is just rolling in delegates. Take the energy of JFK, add the common-sense of Reagan, and sprinkle in the integrity and down-to-earth nature of Lincoln.

He's the Republican Party's last hope.

Go Romney 2008.

I had no idea Duncan Hunter was running. I was thinking that he would be a good candidate to run but if he was and nobody noticed then he should just retire from politics.

Duncan Hunters bow out only brings strength to John McCain. He may not be a candidate, but don't be so quick to count him out. He knows that the Latino vote in Nevada for Hillary is helping him build the fence. Think about it.

I can't believe how mean spirited many of these comments are. I support another candidate, but I respect Mr. Hunter and others who try to offer direction and help. To offer expressions bordering on hatred is an exposure of the pathetic lack of class by their authors. This comment goes double for the instigators of push polls.

Mr. Hunter, props to you for trying. Best of luck to you in the future.

Mr Hunter, please consider endorsing the honest congressman Ron Paul. You're a smart man and certainly understand that America wants to go to work and not worry about backroom deals that hurt our country. Dr Paul would be an ideal candidate for your supporters.

I always liked what Duncan had to say but it's very difficult for a congressman to make the jump to the Presidency so he never had much of a chance.

Still, I'd support Romney picking Duncan as VP or as Defense Secretary.

Best of luck to Duncan who was always graceful and GO MITT!

Ideological differences aside, I will vote for either of the clean-campaigning, honest straight-shooters with a record of respect for the political opposition: McCain or Obama.

The Dirty Tricks Clintons are equals to the Dirty Tricks Bush/Roves. I'll never vote for a Bush or a Clinton again.

I'd be proud to have McCain for my President, though I'd really have a Democrat. If Romney is the nominee, God help me, I might even stoop to voting for him if the other choice is Hillary "Sandbag-the-Other-Guy" Clinton. She's George W. Bush in a skirt with with a better agenda.

Sorry to hear this but hey, this is how things go. Now if only Guliani would get the message!?!

There's now one less big government loving Republican running for president. Unfortunately for traditional conservatives, there's still Romney, McCain, Huckabee, Thompson, and Giuliani left, all of whom have big government/big spending political records.

It's sad to see how far to the left the Republican Party has moved in the past seven years and even sadder to see how even further to the left the Republican voters are willing to allow them to move.

Dunkin Who?

Thank You Duncan,you are a good LAW Enforesment Man but it seems people dont care about LAWS. Just ask Hillary when she says NO ONE IS ILLEGAL and its OK to break the Law as long as you vote for meeeeeeeeee.

Soon only Ron Paul and Mitt will have money left.
Then maybe the GOP will come back around and see the benefit of following the Constitution and being fiscally conservative.

Hillary and her supporters are NOT angry! In fact, we are quite happy about our WIN today!!! Yeah!!!!!! We are all smiles!!! Who is the angry one now!!??

WE all knew you didn't have a chance at the Presidency but you stuck with what you stand for and for the Border Patrol agents and securing the border. I am a Democrat but have a lot of respect for you.

Mr. Hunter,

I am so sorry to hear of your ending your run for the Presidency of the United States. You are far the best candidate!!!!! There ought to be more men in this country like you! Your a great man with wonderful morals and values and a great concern for our soldiers! God bless you and thank you for all you have done for our country.

Carol

McCain should drop out. Huckabee & Thompson are getting over 40% of
the vote in South Carolina, and this proves he can't carry the south.

To some of us, Mr. Hunter, you were the no. 1 candidate to us, representing what needed to get done here in the US. You did not give it your all. We are left scratching our heads and saying, "What happened"?

ABOUT TIME

It's about time he did, they will start to drop off now, hickupbee shoud be next.

Go Mitt!

Jeez
Couldn't you have done that a few days/weeks earlier?

Now is Edwards would get out of the way.

You are a good man Mr. Hunter!!

Hillary's Supporters sure seem like an Angry Bunch.

Why are all her supporters over 45 yrs old and Angry.

Hillary seem s like a woman scorn, she thinks America owes her a crown.

Why are all Hillary supporters so Angry???

She could drop out like Ducan Hunter if she is that unhappy.
