What's Duncan Hunter got?

Posted at 5:13 PM on September 7, 2007 by Bob Collins

It's unusual -- and we can debate the reasons why later -- for a Republican to be near the top of the heap in the "cumulative data" of Select A Candidate. But Duncan Hunter is there. Generally speaking, Select A Candidate mirrors my longstanding belief that a candidate's ability to be interesting and candidate is in inverse proportion to his (or her) ability to get elected.

So Select A Candidate cumulative data doesn't say anything about a candidate's chances. But it does say something about whether a message is resonating.

VP material?
