Get off the field
Published June 6th, 2007 in Uncategorized.
3 debates down. It’s time to call it for some of these guys.
No money.
No organization.
No standout performances in the debates.
No earned media. We get up every morning and go through hundreds of news outlets everyday and barely run across something on these guys.
Sam Brownback, Duncan Hunter, Jim Gilmore, Tommy Thompson, Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul - It’s time to get off the field. Unless God really does strike Rudy down and McCain, Romney, and Fred Thompson are standing close enough to get hit…you are cooked! You’ve had your chance. You’ve said your piece. Bye-bye!
Most disappointing to us is Sam Brownback. We expected more from him over the past couple months.
Mike Huckabee - We will give you another week or two before we call if for you, but only because we liked your performance the last two debates.
Seriously…all these guys on one stage is giving us, and everyone else, a massive headache.
And Fred Thompson – get on the field or shut up.
I don’t think Ron Paul falls into the same category as Brownback et al. Even if he doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell, he still has some pretty serious internet buzz (i.e. being banned from internet polls because he wins them every time). Besides, an appearance on the Daily Show is worth a lot more than anything the other (lower-tier) candidates have appeared on.
i agree ron paul should stay in the race. every election needs a little bit of crazy to lighten the mood during the debates.
