Discovering how William lied (previous comment) is left as an exercise to the intellectually honest reader.

Does his endorsement of Romney help or hurt? I mean, this IS the guy who said we should nuke Mecca and ran the debate commerical with the Mexican unibomber. Would an endorsement from David Duke be much different?

to be fair, I guess I should have written "most of the GOP candidates"....

Tancredo's campaign has been quite the success.

I really doubt that he ever imagined he would actually win the nomination - his goal in running was to establish his immigration position as the official line of the GOP, with hopes that it then became the official policy of the government in '09.

With all the GOP candidates trying their best to out-Tancredo Tancredo, he has accomplished his mission. At least the first part of it.

Train wrecks get a lot more coverage than trains that go safely back and forth on their routes

Well put, although in fairness to PTM above, when was Tancredo's campaign ever *not* a train wreck?

Seems he only gets coverage when the shuddering twisted mass finally scrapes to a sparking stop.

:) I like this metaphor.

Train wrecks get a lot more coverage than trains that go safely back and forth on their routes. Go figure.

I wonder, what does it say about the blogosphere and the MSM that his departure gets more attention than any other point in his candidacy?
