Rudy Giuliani Throws Hat Into 2008 Presidential Ring

Post Chronicle ^ | 2/1/07

According to a source close to The Giuliani campaign, Rudy Giuliani is throwing his hat into the ring.  The Hinzsight Report confirms, through a source close to the Giuliani campaign, that he is presently sending people out into all 50 states to secure his name on the primary ballots.

"Despite Mayor Giuliani's public cautiousness, this is evidence that he is seriously pursuing the Presidency in 2008, and he should be taken very seriously. 

Critical state polls have shown Mayor Giuliani leading the pack, and it's about time that he start being considered what he is--the front-runner" a source tells The Hinzsight Report.

Giuliani has lined up nearly 300 key Republican supporters in New Jersey for his bid for the 2008 presidential nomination, his campaign announced this week.

In a recent Quinnipiac University poll of New Jersey voters, it showed Giuliani leading all Republican presidential candidates and ahead of Sen. Hillary Clinton, the leading Democratic contender, in a head-to-head matchup.

The New Jersey primary, which is currently set for Feb. 26, is likely to move up to Feb. 5, placing it early in the campaign season and increasing its significance.  As many as 15 states could hold their Republican presidential primaries Feb. 5, reports Gannett.

If he wins the primary, the evangelicals and social conservatives would be wise to support the top vote getter. The primary is the time to sort out the candidate selection, and everyone needs to get behind that candidate. If these voters don't do that, than screw 'em and I hope they go form their own third party to go on to lose elections for years to come. I am not sure why some voters think THEY get to dictate that candidates MUST support 100% of their views. How arrogant. There are things I like and dislike about every single candidate I have ever supported. It's politics, and politics is about finding compromise and consensus to get things done amongst many differing viewpoints.

I'm with you on this. 'nough said.

Bill Clinton won election in 1996 with 47.5 percent of the 37 percent of the population that voted.

How many times will he be announcing?!

This is as bad as John "I served in viet nam" Kerry.

Good morning!

[JimFreedom]

HONK for FRED!

[processing please hold]

There are a few Freepers around here who are like lightning rods for crappy candidates. If you see them supporting somebody you can rest assured its a loser.

Did your candidate win in the Nov. 2006 election?

[Dark Skies]

While I spent most of my career in NYC, I live and vote in GA. Most folks down here are big supporters of the troops and that means Rudy!

[Howlin]

He was on H&C last night and said he wouldn't consider getting in until the fall.

This will be all over by then.

Well everyone has a weakness. Superman has Kryptonite and I can't proofread. LOL!

[melancholy]

You seem happy enough with those results; November 2008 should be orgasmic for you.

LOLOLOLOL

You want me fired?

[Fierce Allegiance]

the WOT is the most important issue. And on that, Rudy wins hands down.

Please explain how you think this is true, saying Rudy wins this issue hands down. You did an excellent job explaining your position on the homosexual thing yesterday, btw.

[Howlin]

I'm getting lots of honks. I think we should give him a call!

[Dead Corpse]

Rudy stands out from the rest.

And Hunter stands out from Rudy even more. Back the right horse, and the election against the Dems will be a cake walk.

NO RINO's...

I'm trying to make sense of your post. Are you sure it was meant for me? I am not a Rudy supporter at all, quite the contrary. I think you totally misunderstood my post. I am talking about everyone who is determined that if their candidate is not the one who gets nominated then they are gonna throw a hissy fit and not vote. I will vote for the republican nominee but will fight to get the candidate of my choice nominated. And, as of today, I haven't decided who that is gonna be, but it ain't gonna be Rudy.

[Fierce Allegiance]

You know you are really getting to them when proofreading is more important than the message.

[Howlin]

My candidates are Elizabeth Dole and Richard Burr.

Most folks down here are big supporters of the troops and that means Rudy!

How is rudy any more for the troops than Hunter, who has military experience, and has a son who served in Iraq. Is Giuliani a verteran?

[MadIvan]

Hunter has a long way to go. Belief is nice, but until such time as we see him toppling those with more visibility, this is not a likely scenario.

Secondly, no member of the House has been directly elected President since James Garfield in 1880. That's a huge burden of history.

I used to work for Elzabeth Dole. She was a cool boss.
