Giuliani is certainly more electable than these four conservatives.

And I think exactly the opposite. A pro-gay pro-abortion anti-gun nominee would certainly result in President Hillary and maybe a Democrat House and Senate as well. Conservative turnout and motivation would take a huge hit.

I would have been most happy to see Rudy run again the beast in 06, but apparently, he doesn't like that idea.

I think that it is just the thing for him to do.

After all, as Hillary will show, being elected to that state in 06 doesn't stop one from running in 08, and a defeat in 06 would end the Clintons entirely.

He must know something that leads him to believe that he can't win in NY, but if he can't beat a carpetbagger like her in NY, then how can he win in 08?

Elections are decided by the middle know-nothing moderates who show up the weekend before an election and begin to pay attention to the political ads flooding their TV sets.

Candidates are chosen by the active committed members of their respective political parties.

The candidate you and I might choose in the primaries, when the know-nothing moderates are home perusing their belly buttons, are going to be stronger candidates than the moderates like to vote for.

Hillary is one smart lady. She is repositioning herself in the moderate middle. She has become a recent supporter of the military, is all for protecting our Southern border, although she doesn't say how, and if for solid American middle class values, whatever that means.

She will seem the safer candidate if a solid conservative runs against her who is not well known. Giuliani has such good name recognition now that he might be able to defeat her in a national race, but he will not get the Republican nomination so that scenario is moot.
