I see. Like his arrogant, open violation of the 1996 Federal law that made it illegal for cities like New York to enact "sanctuary" policies for illegal aliens?
No flames here its just that George Allen seems to be a likeable conservative he strikes me as bit of dim bulb but hopefully I am wrong have been before LOL... Rudy despite the liberal tendencies has good merits if he is definately strong about securing the borders and reigning in runaway government spending he would get my support. Also if we work hard and get a lot of true conservatives in Congress and get rid of the RINOs that helps to balance out any left leanings of Rudy...
McCain is a total non-starter his irrational mentality and open borders policy with Mexico is an automatic disqualification.
thanks for the post and have a good day....regards DN
>>Guliani on the other hand can actually articulate the positives of a smaller government....combined with his get tough on borders....vouchers...WOT.
If you think he's riding high in the polls now wait till he really starts running.<<
I'm really hoping for somebody more conservative and also more repsectful of individual rights.
Giuliani will run in 2008 and he will have my vote. He has supported all of Bush's Supreme Court nominees, he's a stanch supporter of the WOT and he makes Democrats pee in their pants in fear.
I'll never vote for him.
Exactly. I don't trust McCain on that score either. That's where philosophy comes into play. Sure, Rudy would be tough on crime, and the war on terror and fiscal responsibility. These are all laudable goals. But in the end it's the direction of the Courts that helps advance the liberal agenda.
What a terrible indictment of the man.
He has Gay friends.
He lets Gays advice him on which tie to wear. Might he have been the inspiration for Queer Eye for the Straight Guy?
He is a heterosexual adulterer and also maybe a closet gay? And he can't pick his own ties. Maybe you suggest burning him at the stake.
If he was either or both or none, he would still be head and shoulders above anyone else mentioned for the office.
Great post.
I like Giuliani.
Proven leader.
I never thought I'd see the day when so many so-called "conservatives" would actually promote a flaming liberal from New York City -- who ought to be sitting in a Federal prison right now -- as the ideal candidate for the Republican Party in a presidential election.
You're right.
But I believe it would be for Giuliani. And only for Giuliani.
A. Pass out leaflets of the NY Mag story..... with illustrations.
Threes Company; Picking Up After Rudy By Jed Heyman New York Magazine. Even pitched as a sitcom, it would seem farfetched: Marital problems force the Republican mayor of New York out of Gracie Mansion and into the apartment of a gay friend and his life partner. Thats what happened when Rudy Giuliani moved into the 57th Street apartment of longtime friend Howard Koeppel and his partner, Mark. Queens native Koeppel, owner of a string of car-dealerships, spoke to Jed Heyman about his friends plans for 2008 and aversion to doggy talk.
Rudy in his inaugural gown.
If it is a no go for Dick Cheney and Condi, my rathers of the group that are out there now is .... Newt Gringhrich.
Goo-Rudy! Goo-Rudy!
Tom Tancredo talks the talk, and walks the walk.
>>Giuliani will run in 2008 and he will have my vote. He has supported all of Bush's Supreme Court nominees, he's a stanch supporter of the WOT and he makes Democrats pee in their pants in fear.<<
Those are all important points.
My concerns go to gun rights, immigration, unions and individual rights. Also isn't he pro-choice or am I confused on that?
Interesting use of language in this piece ... "intriguing" = "liberal."
>>If it is a no go for Dick Cheney and Condi, my rathers of the group that are out there now is .... Newt Gringhrich.<<
I like Newt too but there will be a lot of character attacks to deal with.
I'm not sure about Rudy either, however, one thing I can state unequivocally is that if it was between Rudy and McPain, there is no doubt in my mind who I would not only vote for, but work diligently for the former and against the latter.
Enjoy yourself, but if Bush had the liberal credentials of Guilianni,
Gore would have handily won the election.
No doubt about it.
I hope the so-called "republican elite" gets their head out of their ass before
the 2008 presidential election, or we will surely see a democrat in the White House.

Aside from little things like issues, I'd pick the one less likely to go nuts (or more nuts as the case may be.)
