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. |
But, what does that have to do with Howlin's contention that "MOST" FReepers haven't picked a candidate yet?
ROFLMAO!
Hilarious!
It lightened up a thread where people were getting ridiculously uptight and hopefully made a few people laugh. That's OK with me.
Head lice is curable. Once you've got a Kennedy in office, you are pretty much screwed.
Yeah, I understand what a sample is. It's still a very, very tiny bit of FreeRepublic. Most people are like me, waiting to make up our minds and we don't vote in polls.
We're not looking for someone who is "far right wing" (although that would be nice). We just want someone who supports a good amount of the Republican Party Platform.

Perhaps the fact Bill Clinton said, "I loathe the military", has something to do with it.
Amen to that!
I think Howlin should have posted that MOST THINKING AND SERIOUS PEOPLE HERE, have not made our choice yet.
You know, serious and thinking people like me, who wait for the first of the candidate debates.
FWIW, do you think the majority of members here for in FR polls?
I luv ya!
LOL
New puppy too! How sweet! You'll have to tell me about him ( or her) on the Dose.
Once again I was not speaking to you, but you felt the need to respond, proving MY point: you're posting on these threads like your life depends on it.
That tired chart of yours again.
It's not spiffy --- add some colored font.
So, only stupid people vote in the FR Polls?
Who did YOU vote for in the poll?
I wanted to add others I just need the right picture to edit, LOL! Stay tuned.
No, seriously...
What is with a person who repeatedly comes onto a subject thread and feels they must answer each and every post as if their life depends on it? (and the more they are oppoosed, the more frantic they get)
Do you have any answer 'cause I want to tell them to go get a life and leave the rest of us the heck alone.
The fact that both Giuliani and Hillary Clinton have embraced the same position on an issue that so deeply split Congress in 1993 -- and caused political problems for the Democratic White House -- reflects the extent to which both of the Senate hopefuls view gay men and lesbians as a source of votes and contributions.
Both Hillary Clinton and Giuliani already have gone to some lengths to court support from gay voters, and Hillary Clinton's advisers said they were concerned that the mayor might do well among a group of voters that has historically been viewed as a reliable part of the Democratic base.
At the fund-raiser, Hillary Clinton also voiced support for domestic partnership measures that would allow gay partners to receive the same benefits as married couples.
On this, her position is similar to the one taken by Giuliani, who supported a domestic partnership law in 1997. The mayor frequently remarks that he signed the city's first domestic partnership legislation.
