I think that is want going on. Right now base on name ID Rudy is above McCain.
That is so ridiculous because you have a so-called "pro-life" President now, who has done next to nothing to move forward the cause besides the PBA signing. Bush has not cut a single penny from the hundreds of millions of tax dollars you give to Planned Parenthood every year, no federal funds going towards 3D ultrasounds to discourage abortions, then he strongly supported pro-abortion cannibal like Specter over Toomey (and lost PA by a mile anyway). How would Giuliani be any worse on abortion. He has already said he supports a partial birth abortion ban. what has bush given us beyond that? Nothing.
But abortion is not the most improtant issue anyway, It is Islamic terror. And I challenge anyone to find me a tougher law and order candidate in the GOP who is more hostile to Arabs than Rudy Giuliani. There is none.
"The conservative field (some are debatable, but to each his own) looks like:
Brownback, Frist, Allen, Huckabee, maybe Pawlenty."
Didn't see Brownback, Huckabee, or Pawlenty on the list above.
Frist is one of my Senators. He's a conservative in name only.
like I said, to each his own -- or to each against his own, or something
That sounds real good to me.
Is McCain pro-choice like Rudy? The Christian Right/Evangelicals will eat Rudy alive if he gets the nomination.
How 'bout the Johnny Three Notes on
Abortion
Gays
and Guns?
If you think conservatives are just gonna line up to vote for a liberal because he was mayor of NYC on September 11th and somehow that makes him the best commander in chief available, you got another think comin'.
McCain is pro-life, as is his mini-me Chuck Hagel (R., France)
I agree with what you said about how Bush hasn't done anything to abortion and neither will Rudy....and I want a President that will stand up to terrorists, like Bush has....but I still think Rudy should run for Senate first....sorry, but I have to see what he is like when dealing with the likes of kerry, kennedy, clinton,poloski, dingy hairy, etc....
It's disappointing to look at a list of eleven prospectives and have a reaction of "No" and "HELL NO!" to the top seven.
Sad but true. We really need to find a couple worthy successors to W - the time's coming when we'll need good candidates, and they should get a running start.
Nominate NooYawk Rudy, and I go fishing on election day!
Well, he's capturing all of the media coverage on a CD for his grand kids to enjoy.
My question is, as conservatives are we prepared to accept Giulliani in 2008 if he wins the nomination?
Florida...the further south you go the more northern it gets...therefore, if you live in the north, it's south Florida!
Not to be a bore: but just what have the people got against Rudy??????
30 million dead babies is no joke.
If terrorism is the biggest issue at that time, Rudy will win the nomination IMO. People would trust him to wage a powerful WOT.
Not Many Freepers as I can see, but Rudy has been going all across the country including the South and has been getting standing room only crowds and very positive feedback from people about running for President. So Apparently there is a major gap between Freepers and the people who Guiliani is reaching.
..if Rudy ever won the nomination -- that would be the end of the GOP -- just like the Whigs.
