Man, I wish Mark Sanford would change his mind!
I still say he cannot win the support of social conservatives because of his positions on Abortion, same-sex marriange and gun control. I think he should have run for senator or Governor in NY.
This is not necessarily how I wish (or don't wish) it would be, just how I see it WILL be.
I wonder if somehow some will think here that "half a loaf" with Rudy is better than any Democrat. I can understand that argument also, especially in light of the immigration discussions we've had here.
Time will tell.
Rudy would not stand too well west of the Hudson River!
Just his anti-gun position alone will hurt him tremendously in the 'red states'.
Political polls dupe too many people, too often.
If Rudy is serious, he could end the Hildebeast threat by running against her for the U.S. Senate. The fact that he is making no moved to do so shows me that any talk of Rudi or Condi is nothing more than a pipe dream. Pipe dreams do not win presidencies, no matter what the polls say.
I will not vote for Giuliani. Period.
And that assessment will be proved correct when the southern and non-coastal western states hold their primaries.
What this says to me is that the Democrats only need to roll 2% of the vote illegally to beat McCain and they need to roll 4.5% fraud to beat Rudy.
That makes Rudy a better bet - we know the Democrats can find 2% fraud in any big city precinct in the US without breaking a sweat!
I thought he was discussing how Republicans would fare against Hillary? Not independent-maverick-let-me-see-which-liberal-democrat-I-can-get-to-co-sponsor-my-bill-this-month Senators.
Rudy would have a good chance of winning California - 50 some odd electoral votes. Probably the whole Left Coast.
I wish Rudy would have run for Hillary's senate seat. He could have beat her there and given us another supporter in the war on terror -- and he's no worse than she was on the social issues.
Rudy couldn't win the job of dog catcher in my Area.
The article is wrong about "every other candidate hovering at 2-3 percent".
He's my guy, as of now.
Fortunately, Rudy Giuliani doesn't have a chance in hell of getting elected -- and has a remote chance at best of even securing the GOP nomination.
Better than McLaim.
No question about it.
Giuliani was never controversial. The ultralibs hated him, sure, but that's because he not only kicked their asses politically on their home turf, but also because he proved their entire ideologies wrong, almost singlehandedly turning one of the most dangerous cities in America into the safest.
Even if 9/11 had never happened, he'd still probably be topping the '08 polls right now.
If Rudy wants to stop her, stop her at the NY senate seat. He won't make it to the WH. If anything, it'll give the hildebeast the WH.
Humor ping.
