Yes, Rudy Giuliani Is a Conservative
City Journal ^ | Jan.25, '07 | Steven Malanga

Personally, I prefer Tancredo although I admire "America's Mayor," and this article sheds some light on Rudy's little known conservative and courageous accomplishments.

As you can see, nearly 3 time as many freepers supprt a Hunter candidacy over those who support the abortion-loving Giiliani, the camp you purport to speak for.

Why don't you scurry off like a little rat and find ANY post where I have supported Rudy; ANY.

We can all just sit right here and your can do one of two things: prove I have said I support Rudy, or apologize for lying about me.

Or you can just not do anything and be proved a liar.

Tick tock.

"Exactly. Which should tell anybody who's reading these threads exactly who AREN'T conservatives!"


Whow cares?

I have no need to qualify those who are conservative or how conservative they are.

I could care less who is most conservative, who is less conservative or who is just a little conservative.

What I care about is my country.

What I care about is defeating Islamic Fascism.

What I care about is defeating Shillary.

I didn't have to dig for 7 year old news. This here is today's:

Hillary, Giuliani Lead in Ohio Poll


Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton holds a strong lead over other Democratic presidential contenders in a new poll of voters in Ohio, the closely divided swing state that tipped the 2004 election for President Bush.


Former New York Mayor Rudy Guiliani, who appeared in TV ads and at fundraisers during last year’s gubernatorial race, is the favorite among the state’s Republican voters, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Tuesday. He is favored by 30 percent of voters surveyed compared to 22 percent for Sen. John McCain, 11 percent for former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and 4 percent for former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.


Among Ohio Democrats, 38 percent pick Clinton, 13 percent pick Sen. Barack Obama, 11 percent pick former vice presidential candidate John Edwards, and 6 percent would vote for former Vice President Al Gore. Ohio’s own Rep. Dennis Kucinich gets just 2 percent of the vote, or less than the survey’s margin of error.


"Those who say Sen. Hillary Clinton can’t win the White House because she can’t win a key swing state like Ohio might rethink their assumption,” said Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute.


The institute polled 1,305 registered Ohio voters by phone from last Tuesday to Sunday. The results have a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. When results are broken down by party, the margin of error rises to plus or minus 4 percentage points for Democrats, and plus or minus 5 percentage points for Republicans.



Though she holds a strong early lead within her own party, Clinton also faces the strongest bloc of voters among the early contenders — 38 percent — who dislike her, perhaps explaining why she did not beat the poll’s margin of error in any of the head-to-head match-ups tested.


The survey found hypothetical contests between Clinton and Guiliani, Clinton and McCain, Obama and McCain, and Edwards and McCain all within the margin of error.


"Given their stronger overall image, Mayor Guiliani and Sen. McCain would seem to have the potential to improve their standing,” Brown said. "That might be much more difficult for Sen. Clinton because of the larger number of voters who don’t like her.”


The poll also found that 60 percent of Ohio voters oppose Bush’s plan to send 22,000 additional troops into Iraq. Fifty-six percent say going to war in Iraq was wrong, and 65 percent dislike Bush’s handling of the situation.

Supporting a candidate who is not a conservative (Giuliani) doesn't represent the mission of FR though.

Well, then, why don't you call Mr. Robinson and have him thrown all the people who, IN YOUR OPINION, are working against the purposes of this web site OFF, bud.

I suspect you don't speak for Jim Robinson.

Have you find the post where I support Rudy yet?

Tick tock...

Here's something from Page 194 of "Second Acts: Presidential Lives and Legacies After the White House"

"Like the Kennedy family, which knew something about creating a lasting legacy, the Reagan Foundation created an award around the Reagan image. The Ronald Reagan Freedom Award given to those who 'have made monumental and lasting contributions to the cause of freedom'. Recipients include Gorbachev, Margaret Thatcher, Billy Graham, Bob Hope, and Rudolph Giuliani"

Its seems Ronald Reagan seen something he likes he Rudy. We see it too. Why can't all these Rudy bashers that adore President Reagan see it?

I doubt that, very much! It's what YOU want them to do, but it isn't something a Dem would use against him.

Dukakis in a tank was a picture taken DURING an actual presidential race!

I think the first primary is in Iowa THIS August. The Iowa straw poll, but I could be mistaken.

Reagan liked and trusted Rudy enough to appoint him as his #3 guy at DOJ.

And the people in charge of handing out awards on behalf of Reagan think that Reagan approved enough of Rudy that Rudy got that Ronald Reagan Freedom Award which, btw, is called about 3 different names in different newspaper articles.
