worse than polls at this point are the people posting political stock market standings.
ROTFLOL!!
Good luck with your campaign .. I'm sure Hillary is very pleased.
I resent that...
Agreed.....
I'm no fan of Rudy. I consider him a Liberal.
However, calling people here who support Guiliani "treasonous" is a bit much, to put it mildly.
With that being said, click the banner on the right.

If we don't win the WOT, fudgepacking and baby killing don't matter. On the other hand, if our young voters don't hear a conservative voice soon, they'll never know there is an option to the beast, Pelosi and their ilk.
Don't kill of Rudy yet.
Ha ha ha, ok. Tell me the last candidate polling at 1-2% 10 months before the first primary who took the nomination.
Ducks are cool...
Spell checking is easy Bunker
But don't we need him,to save the Republican Party?
It's disgusting how long garbage can remain here as long as the message is acceptable to some.
This thread is allowed to stand why?
That's what they keep telling us. Actually, I think the message of Rudy's candidacy is, "if you can't beat em, join em."
Nah!
If one must attack, one rarely takes the time to process the necessary thoughts to determine when and where it is appropriate.
You will be attackes by the original poster simply because you posted...
Sorry!!!
When given a free box of tide, there is going to be at least one assclown that fails to wash his undies before getting on the box to scream about others with dirty undies...
Congratulations. You've possibly made the most pathetically horrible thread in FR history.
You should be ashamed, but I'm sure you never will.
Oh, one of these nonsensical posters told me that Ted Olson hasn't endorsed Rudy because he didn't actually say the words "I endorse Rudy Giuliani". LOL
This doesn't sound like an endorsement, does it? /sarcasm
Theodore Olson, the stalwart conservative lawyer and former solicitor general for the Bush administration, told the Spectator he will be supporting Rudy Giuliani's presidential bid.
"I admire his character, his capacity for leadership, his instincts, and his principles," Olson said over the phone this afternoon. He said he will help Giuliani raise money as well as offer advice on legal issues and domestic policy matters that involve constitutional questions.
Olson and Giuliani have been longtime friends since serving in the Reagan Justice Department from 1981-1983, when Olson was assistant attorney general in charge of the office of legal counsel and Giuliani was associate attorney general. Olson said they met with Attorney General William French Smith every morning and worked closely on a number of issues.
The support of Olson should help Giuliani in his quest to win over social conservatives who remain skeptical of his pledge to appoint strict constructionist judges.
"I've known him for 26 years and we've talked about this many times," Olson said. "He feels very strongly that people like Justice Scalia, Chief Justice Roberts, Sam Alito, Clarence Thomas, are the type of people that he would put on the court…I'm quite convinced that this is a genuine viewpoint that he has."
When asked about differences conservatives have with Giuliani on issues such as abortion and gay rights, Olson said: "Rudy's views on many, many issues are going to be very compatible with people in the conservative political community and the political legal community. Nobody's going to be able to find a candidate with whom they agree with 100 percent on every issue. Overall, Rudy's strength of character, his capacity for leadership in a time when a strong executive is important, his energy level, his ability to provide the kind of leadership that Ronald Reagan did -- I think that is going to be very persuasive with conservatives."
Olson gave a $2,100 contribution to Giuliani's presidential exploratory committee in December, according to FEC filings. Records also show that Olson contributed $2,000 to Giuliani's U.S. Senate campaign in 1999, before Giuliani dropped out of the race because of his battle with prostate cancer. As solicitor general, Olson was a tireless legal advocate for the Bush administration's policies in the War on Terror. In 2004, he and Giuliani co-signed a letter to Congress in support of the PATRIOT Act.
Olson will remain a partner at the law firm Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, but said he would help Giuliani "in any way he wants."
"The more the American people see Rudy, and relate to him, and listen to him, the more they're going to be supporting him," Olson said.
