One of Rudy Giuliani’s early achievements as mayor of New York City was to make people think twice about urinating on the streets.

“If somebody was urinating on the street,” he once told the New York Times, “the reaction would be, oh, we can’t do anything about that. And then the idea would start to develop that there must be some inherent human right to urinate on the street. So the police started ignoring all kinds of offenses. They’d even stand by when drug deals were going on. The police became highly skilled observers of crime.”

Something had to be done, and Rudy was the man to do it.

"Rudy has a good future in the party as a New York Senator"


Yep - he will take Hillary's seat when we elect her the next POTUS.

I say we draft Haley Barbour.

He's a Southern Governor

He's a solid conservative

He knows how to raise money (He was the RNC chairman)

He directed the rebuilding of the Mississippi Gulf coast after Katrina (as opposed to the non-rebuilding of New Orleans.)

Run him with a Veep of Condi Rice and no Dim has a chance.
