Is there some reason that everyone else is dismissing him?

Of course I love Tom Tancredo, but I just don't think he has developed his other issues and he was way too strong on the immigration stuff tonight.

I didn't see the debate, I'm going off past knowledge.

Had I not lived with the Huckabee governorship for eight years, I would be more supportive of him. I do think he presented himself very well---he's always very quick-witted and composed, and I do respect his unabashed spiritual expression. Having said that, I can't forget his outrageous pandering to the illegal Hispanic population and the likes of LULAC during his tenure as governor. He was also instrumental in establishing a dubious Mexican Consulate in Arkansas, an enterprise about which many questions remain unanswered.

I rank the top three as Hunter, Tancredo and Paul, with Mitt Romney as a distant fourth. Re: Tancredo's occasional verbal hesitation, I think I read somewhere that he has had a stuttering problem in the past. I don't know if that's true, but whatever the source, I don't find it particularly distracting. In my opinion, he always conveys a powerful and passionate message. He's actually quite knowledgeable in other areas, but his association with the immigration issue has pretty much defined him in recent years.

There ya go Cowgirl, I think that's why everyone dismissed him. Personally I dismissed him because I had never heard a single good thing about him here. Considering the above, it was for very good reasons.
