I took one of those tests online which said that my answers were closest to Tancredo's, which surprised me. I don't consider him a viable candidate. At the time, Fred wasn't a declared candidate - if I could find the darn test again, maybe I'd take it again...just to see. Still, I'm concerned that he doesn't have what it takes to do the job. I suspect Guliani, Romney and probably Huckabee can do the job, but would I _want_ them to do the job they'd probably do? Dilemna dilemna...fortunately I have until Feb (I think) to make up my mind. Lots of water will pass under the bridge before I have to cross it... I like Fred. I took one of those tests online which said that my answers were closest to Tancredo’s, which surprised me.

He fell even further now at 80-1 No other Republican candidate has fallen as far; from a high of 5-1 in July, now down to 80-1.
