Tancredo...the anti-immigration Republican is in last place. Could it be that most Americans don't care about Immigration the way you think they do?
Will you throw a tantrum when the Democrats win?

I knew pro-illegals were racist, but this proves it. This guy forgot to read that Tancredo is against illegal immigration, not immigration. Pro-illegal's stooped to knew levels of stupidity with this question. Mommy and daddy must be proud......not.
Vote Ron Paul if you care about America. Vote Democrat if you want to see the downfall of this once great nation.

We'll see where Tancredo is after a couple primaries. Phone polls aren't very accurate. I know that no one has called me and asked who I prefer...but for sure, I'm giving Tancredo my vote.
Just so you know, he's not the only anti-immigration Republican, they are all talking tough on the issue.
If the Dems win, I'll make a decision about how much money I want to make/be taxed for the next 4 years, and I'll still survive just fine.

Giuliani is a sell-out. Those who take a tough stand on immigration, legal and illegal, know what is happening to the country. They're not pandering. Illegal aliens are ruining our society, and we must curb all immigration as well. We simply cannot absorb it all. A lot of people are scared of candidates who take a tough stance on any issue.
70% of the country is against illegal aliens. It's big business that doesn't want it stopped, and the Dems want the vote. Special interest groups that are being pandered to. Yeah, the people care. But don't yet decide which candidate will place last when we have a long time to see who wins the primaries.
The bottom line is that people vote with their pocketbooks. Do you want your taxes to go to supporting illegals, billions that go out to them, and benefit only Mexico. The money sent home is the 2nd largest source of income for Mexico.

Not sure what source you are using that says he is in "last place", but it's not uncommon for candidates who are viewed as single issue to have a difficult time getting widespread support. This happened in spades when the anti-war candidates were running in the 60s. Americans aren't so stupid that they think there is only one issue. What generally happens is that one or more of the other candidates will "morph" enough to appear to support the single issue guy to get support and voters will gravitate to the new guy. "Most Americans" are very concerned about Immigration. If you think the Democrats are somehow different on this issue, listen to their rhetoric as well.

When you are in a field of winners, being in last place, assuming he is in that space, isn't so bad.
Let's face it, there is more good heat in the Republican kitchen than most voters know what to do with.
I'm a registered Dem and as I look at the policies and point of the Dem Pres candidates and their pre running antics, I speedily turn on my heals and go to the gold fields of the Rep party.
If Americans want to see the real bottom, they'll voter for any one of the Dems. Especially Hillary. We might have a chance with any of the Rep. George Washington's they aren't but they won't drop us in the pooper can like the others mentioned above will clearly do.

Tom Tancredo is the only American running for office. The special interest groups don't like him for telling the truth. The Islamics and La Raza tend to hate him! LOL If he doesn't get through this time he wil the next. His voting record is consistent and he's bent on upholding the Constitution and all of the immigration laws on our books. He has my vote as well. This is not over yet!

Tancredo is not against immigration, he has been against illegal immigration for a long time. He is in last place, because he doesn't cater to big businesses that hire illegals.
Big business buys elections.

Last place according to what? Polls taken by a handful of people? Who the media pushes? Votes haven't been cast yet so don't jump too soon. He's not the only one against ILLEGAL immigration.

There is not a stand alone candidate that has all traits Americans are looking for. We are forced to settle for the one with at least some of our views. Also don't go by what the media or pollsters say, they are very inaccurate.
