[Clemenza]

Lets see:

1. After eight years as Mayor, NY remained a high tax socialist hellhole. There goes his "fiscal conservative" bonafides.

2. Has a long history of questionable friends (Bernie Kerick, Ray Harding). There goes the "honesty" card.

3. Has a history of abandoning women when a new gal catches his eye. At least BC remained married. There goes the "moral integrity" card.

4. Lived with two gay roomates after divorce. Not that there's anything wrong with it.

5. Is on the record CONDEMNING the 1996 immigration reforms and Prop 187, stating that "NY thrives because of immigrants, documented and UNdocumented. There goes the "securing our borders card."

6. Has a history of being vehemently anti-gun, claiming that the 2nd amendment allows for "reasonable regulation." Of course, this is fitting for a law and order fetishist.

7. The last point illustrates that he has little understanding of "original intent."

8. Pro-abortion.

9. Governed a city where the majority of inhabitants are either effete yuppies, third world immigrants, or the children of the latter. There goes the "I am an American" card.

10. Has said NOTHING about foreign policy, other than superficial sound bites and Likud Party talking points (plagiarist!). So much for "Mr. National Security."

12. Had VERY low approval ratings until 9/11 happenned, due to a lack of ethics, and clumsy handling of police shootings. There goes the "competance" card.

I think #1 is critcal.

I've been working the get out the vote effort for the RNC for years. I don't know one single voter I could get to the polls for this turd.

I'll just have to spend my efforts in the primary for someone else that can keep him out. Because if he gets the nomination I'll cast my one write-in vote and be done for the day.

13. He endorsed John McCain in '00

Rudy should be honest and run as a Democrat.

[narses]

While he was the “Republican Mayor” of New York City he appointed more than 60 men and women to the Civil, Criminal, and Family Court benchs. In all of those judicial appointment not one of them was a Republican.

All of his judical appointments were either registered Liberals or registered Democrats. As the “Republican Mayor” he had appointment power over more than 70 full commissioners in more than 50 City agencies, yet at no time during his administration did REPUBLICANS account for more than 10% of those appointments.

He even appointed Chuck Schumers wife as the City’s Department of Transportation Commissioner.

"Has said NOTHING about foreign policy, other than superficial sound bites and Likud Party talking points..."

...while making NY a sanctuary city, which enables the flow of illegals aliens, which provides cover for terrorists crossing the border, which endangers everyone but in particular the group he was pandering to while plagiarizing the talking points!

Good list.

4. Lived with two gay roomates after divorce. Not that there's anything wrong with it.

Of course not--you don't expect Rudy to be able to decorate, do you?
