Tancredo for President? Coyote Gulch wonders how he missed this article about Tom Tancredo and possible presidential plans from the Denver Post [June 5, 2005, "Tancredo working to turn the tide"]. From the article, "Unimposing but with a habit of speaking his mind, Tancredo has carefully crafted an image as a Republican maverick willing to challenge both his party and his president. With most analysts betting that immigration will play a major role in the 2008 presidential election, the Littleton lawmaker and his staff are ramping up to ride the wave. He plans to tour several primary states, calling for militarization of the border and a crackdown on employers who hire illegal immigrants. If no other serious candidate appears who will support those goals, Tancredo says he plans to enter the Republican presidential primaries." Category: 2008 Presidential Election 6:52:55 AM
