Flapsblog ^ | Jan 27, 2007

January 29, 2007

A Giuliani fund-raiser will be held Jan. 29 in Pacific Palisades, Calif., at the home of Bill Simon, the 2002 Republican candidate for governor of California, costing $2,300 a person and $4,600 per couple.

January 30, 2007:

Mary Bono’s campaign is sponsoring a golf event to raise funds for Giuliani’s committee on Tuesday, at the Rancho Mirage home and golf course of Edra Blixseth, Porcupine Creek Golf Club. Information: (310) 500-4284 or by e-mail at events@marybono.com

February 1, 2007:

Texas Republican contributors are being solicited to spend $30,000 for dinner with former New York City Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani at the Houstonian Hotel in Houston Feb. 1 to finance his “presidential exploratory committee.” The “private” dinner will follow a 6:30 to 8 p.m. cocktail reception, costing $2,100 a person and $4,200 for couples.

The best-known host of Giuliani’s Houston event is billionaire oilman T. Boone Pickens Jr., chairman of the private equity firm BP Capital Management. Also on Giuliani’s Texas fund-raising team are Tom Hicks, whose company owns the Texas Rangers baseball team; oil industry executive Jim Lee; and lawyer Patrick C. Oxford.

Did you know that Rudy has been divorced, as well? :-)

Rudy cannot win the White House without holding the base.

So why are the Rudy haters so desperate? Why do they come to the Rudy threads and bring nothing to the discussion other than hate, and the absolute fear the man could win.

I know that every poll shows him ahead, but I think some of his critics fear something else: they fear he will win the presidency. Otherwise, they wouldn't attack him the way they do.

As you might tell from my tagline, I support Duncan Hunter. But Romney IMO has a better chance than either Rudy or McVain. Why? Because he does not have your dumbass attitude that the base does not matter.

I never said the base doesn't matter. But the fanatic fringe of the conservative movement isn't the base. The most singular minded of the base impetuously and short-sightedly sat out the 2006 election - maybe it's time to hedge bets and not rely on the "base" you are talking about.

Thanks for posting -- looks neat!

I think I need to order some bumperstrips for my Highlander. Haven't put any bumperstrips on since I bought the SUV last January and it is about time!

Duncan Hunter claims he will not have to raise much money - because he is a *true* conservative :-)

HAAATERS. HAAATERS.

We are not desparate. All we have to do is tell the truth about Rudy.

You, however, have to either sell Rudy as a conservative, or convince conservative voters that their views do not matter.

I do not envy you for having to take either approach.

The truth is spread by word of mouth. False advertising costs millions to spread.

On a different thread, one without spammers, and a completely different temperature level, I'd like to discuss with you who you think comprises the Republican base. We might agree and we might disagree.

I'm not sure.

But I don't want to do it on this thread. It's something that will keep for later.

So you are saying that Rudy is trying to prevent abortion? You are contradicting yourself now :-)

Abortion is still legal, isn't it? How do you think you are doing in saving the country?

Us broken-glass Republican Conservatives are the base who are not one issue types and reliably vote Republican even if we have to hold our nose to vote!

The fringers like to think they are but the true broken glass Republicans in the end will vote for our candidate which makes me suspect that a lot of these folks may not even be Republicans or will go to the CP with Keyes!

No.

Just that he won't have to raise as much money as the like of Rudy. He won't need a massive media buy to convince primary voters that he is a conservative.
