Giuliani President, Jeb Bush Vice President. That ticket is unbeatable IMO.

If that's the list, we're in for a world of hurt.

True, but I don't believe that's problematic in this day and age. If Elizabeth I could handle it, I say Condi can.

that may or not may be true, certainly not one that advocated partial birth but alot depends also on their other strengths like Guilliani and who the frigging Dem's throw out........I know FR is mostly conservative but the country is actually more center right on many things

????? Who said anything about abortion? I just commented that its very unusual for an unmarried person to run for high office.

Rummy/Rice. What a combo that would be. At least we'd have fun with the media.

All I can say is that a "Pro-Choice" GOP will NOT get the Nomination.

I dunno - it's not called the Stupid Party w/o a reason. The powers that be might just think they can spin a bort to the ticket.

Elizabeth who - Dole? She is married, though childless. But if she were to run for President, I think her husband would be the liability...

I can't cite sources, but if you spend some time on google or yahoo, you can see what she says directly.

I do remember her making a few comments about it, she's got the reverse liberal position on abortion. I.E. she supports abortion but thinks Roe vs Wade should be overturned, and the states should decide it. Its the opposite or reverse view of the liberal "its morally wrong, but its a womans right".

In effect, policy wise, I guess it wouldn't make a difference, but I wouldn't want somone who thinks abortion is okay as president, even if would make it possible to ban abortion.

Queen Elizabeth I.

History seems to have favored her. She has an era named after her.

Similar with me.

The Colo Governor might be a potential, but none of the others on the list seem that viable. Yeh, they have name recognition, but what about their policies and programs?

The Pub winner will go up, quite probably, against Hillary; and none of the listed names seem a good challenge to her.

The only ones I would even consider are George Allen and Jeb Bush. If I would want someone who agrees with murdering babies in the womb, I would vote Democrat.

Is George Allen a solid full pro-lifer? Someone told me he said he supports abortion in the first week or month of a pregnancy or something.

Can you fill me in?

and we are going to be up against a ticket with a woman at the top and a Hispanic VP. but still, most freepers still believe we can toss out a ticket of two white guys, as long as they are pro-life, and win easily against Hillary. no way.
