Rudy with a strong conservative running mate would be a good choice, or maybe with Tommy Franks for the GWOT "gravitas."
I notice your linked website has McCain listed as "first." BAH!
I think 9-11 made Rudy grow up a bit, yes.
And I agree: no McCain!
Moderates who became more conservative after 9-11? Who pray tell? It would be great if true especially sinc conservatives have become more "moderate" since 9-11. Dubya, for example, has spent money on DOMESTIC PROGRAMS like a drunken sailer after 9-11, even outdoing Clinton.
