The Candidate (Rudy Giuliani in NH)
The American Spectator ^ | 1/29/2007 | Philip Klein

Posted on 01/29/2007 1:36:27 PM PST by Dark Skies

Many skeptics continue to question whether Rudy Giuliani is serious about making a run for the White House, but it was abundantly clear on Saturday that he had come to Manchester for more than the sub-freezing temperatures.

Addressing over 500 activists at the New Hampshire Republican Party's annual meeting as part of a two-day swing through the state, Giuliani sketched the broad outlines of what looks like a presidential run. Sounding at times like a motivational speaker, Giuliani cautioned against cynicism and pessimism in the wake of November's election results and challenges in the ongoing War on Terror. The message especially resonated with the audience in this critical primary state, where the Republican Party just lost control of both chambers of the legislature for the first time since the 1870s.

"The best way we remain safe and we retain our freedom...is remaining on offense, remaining strong and not becoming weak in a time of pressure," Giuliani said in a line that drew the biggest applause from the crowd at the Palace Theater.

No, it isn't accurate and it's rather silly of you and others to post it as though it was something someone else made.

Yep...Hunky Dunker's gotta problem when you add the undecideds to his support column and he still only gets to #4. Kinda pathetic.

Actually they are helping us out far more than they realize.

Every time someone new comes around one of these threads, they see the childish, small, petty, and nasty disposition of these people. It only benefits us in the long run.

Look at how much attention as well as support Rudy is getting over their constant, repetitious attacks. I have seen many who weren't sure, decide that because the goon squad is against Rudy he must be a normal OK guy! They now support Rudy full speed.

But Spiff, I thought you said you would save the country? How do you feel you are doing so far?

Just more damned lies from you, I see.

You've spent as much time trashing this president, as have the damned Dems....perhaps MORE!

How'd all that work you did for Graf pan out?

Talk about WASTED time! That's all you ever do...waste time and bandwidth!

You have to go back father than 1952, to make that argument! By 1952, the GOP was no longer isolationist and it was the Birchers who had taken over most of THE worst parts of the GOP fringe sects.

I'll Drink to that! The ONLY way we even stand a chance of winning in '08 is with Giuliani. Maybe Rice or Newt for VP. The Moderates and Independents really hat conservatives right now, so maybe Newt is a bit extreme under the current political climate.

We'll see.....

His support grows daily. And it infuriates the bashers.

I would say Jeb Bush for VP, he was very successful as Governor of Florida and could raise lots of money, but I just don't know how another Bush will fly at this point, even as VP.

He and his pals have posted his wee "chart" for a bit now. I think that we need to make our own chart of all of the lower tier guys, especially the ones who show up as an * ! LOL

That won't fly. We don't have skipping/revolving monarchies in America.

I question how accurate this chart is. Afterall, it says Hillary supports the war in Iraq and she just came out yesterday saying the President should withdrawal all troops by the time he leaves office so as not to saddle the next President with "his war". I'm pretty sure Rudy's position is 180 degrees away from that.

Heck no! Post it on every thread. At least yours is original.

I though you referred to that as spamming the thread, no?
