so says he..

[NormsRevenge]

Some strategists believe Giuliani will face significant hurdles in Republican politics because he supports abortion rights and favors tough gun control laws, views that contrast those held by many core Republican voters.

Heck, he's almost a perfect match for what the Ca GOP stands for today, even tho they haven't yet updated the party platform to reflect what they are become these days..

The CFR cabal folks will probably offer us a few 'choices' McCain,Giuliani or the Hildabeast...

It's gonna be a lovely New World Ordor....

One if by land, two if by sea,three when they come from Washington,D.C.

See, here we go. The RINO invasion is starting. We will soon have European style political parties that are all socialist but have different bases.

This is the real reason behind campaign finance reform. The elites never have to fear giving the people a choice if they control the options.

Us moderates vote too Big tent or no tent.

Rudy, Rudy, Rudy, the G.O.P. is not the Democrat party.

Smaller govt. is better govt. Better govt. is less intrusive govt.And no one has the right to kill babies.

Giuliani Says GOP Open to Diverse Views

And one of the very reasons that I am no longer a member of the RINOcrat party. Sorry Rudy, I will NOT vote for you or McScreamingManiac.

Many Republicans are fearful of the specter of mass expulsions, especially those involving well rooted, productive families.

Such a move could dramatically change the publics view of the party.

The Dems, however, know that this is their trump card, and will play it to keep the debate in the news, until the Republican's are forced to back something drastic, that will force a mass relocation and some economic and social chaos. Reid's use of the procedural rules last month was just a preview.

In the meantime, expect Hillary to pick up part of this debate, by backing a wall and thus co-opting the visible part of the issue from Republican's, just as Bill did with the crime and prosecution themes.

Given the split in the GOP, it is a very good time to be a Democrat.Preach all you want, but the usual political cycle is when one party over-reaches in accomodating its farthest wing. This issue is a no-win landmine for the GOP and the Dems know it.

Giuliani needs to shut his libertarian mouth! Opposition to the homosexual agenda is as mainstream as it can get. Look at the votes around the country.

He's also 180 degrees off on ILLEGAL immigration. Not just with the Republican Party but they entire country.

Giuliani is out of touch!!

[NormsRevenge]

Like I said, he's very electable in California.

Giuliani needs to shut his libertarian mouth!

That's sarcasm, right?

Go ahead with that pipe dream Rudy, the conservatives aren't "open to all diverse opinions." We may disagree on a couple but that is only around the edges not the opposite view.

The GOP pile looms large of those who would be Prez and thought that the "Big Tent" really meant that the grass roots embraced the idea. We didn't then and we still don't.

Ronnie had to go up against the Big Guns in the Big Tent (back room king makers) but he persisted and won big majorities.

Doesn't matter if the gubmint is big or small if it doesn't work right.

What this self-serving politician thinks is meaningless.

When will Rudy come to grips with the fact that the Most Important Thing is what Republican voters think?


Rudy always does what he feels in HIS best interests----like endorsing Dimocrat Mario Cuomo for governor b/c Rudy calculated it was in HIS best interests to have a Dim in Albany to further HIS political ambitions.


Rudy stepped on so many in his search for power....including the unborn.

Listen up Rudy: "You should be careful who you step on on the way up---because you are going to meet them on the way down."

No thanks Mayor RINO, stay in New York where you fit in better.

[Mogollon]

Drive-by media thinks that Guliani, McKennedy, and other rino's are the only legitimate spokesmen for the GOP.

This most politically damaging and most difficult to enact policy is also the least effective.

The problem is either temporary or permanent, depending upon only one thing. Will something be done to staunch the flow? There *should* be a wall - everything else is a distraction (for now).

It is almost as if nobody is interested in actually dealing with the problem.

Put up the damn wall and send every illegal immigrant who shows up on police radar (theft, murder, rape, traffic violation, parking ticket, vandalism, etc) back to Mexico or wherever their home country is.

Who said this? Rudy who?
