"Rudy would have to renounce his views on abortion, gay marriage, and immigration in order to get the nomination."

If he did that, Rudy would lose his liberal friends and MSM support.

The thought of Rudy running against a Democrat is a liberal's dream come true.

[kellynla]

"couldn't win?"

says who? you? LOL

the only way one "can't win" is to "not run!" hellooooooo

again, if you have a better candidate, name 'em!

[Hildy]

Kelly, really...think about it....first of all, do you really think Cheney would put himself and his family through this crap? Secondly...you don't honestly think he could win, do you?

[SevenofNine]

OMG CHENEYYYY

That drive Demos and MSN media nuts we got some Dick Cheney fans here in ON FR Kelly

OH SNUGSS they talking about your boy on TIME

[mcshot]

"Tommy Franks?"


I'd support him.

Rudy would have to renounce his views on abortion, gay marriage, and immigration in order to get the nomination. I don't think he intends to do that.

Unfortunately you are quite correct. Personally, I look for leadership in a president. I really don't give a hoot about issues as far as the office of the POTUS goes. I want issues to reside in the party platform and in congress.

A democratically controlled congress is not about to pass laws against abortion or gay marriage, so that possibility is rather moot and foolish to even discuss.  If Republicans manage to pass these laws amidst a Democrat controlled congress it would be nothing short of a miracle and I would expect Rudy to get religion and not veto legislation his own party passed regardless of his own personal convictions.

"first of all, do you really think Cheney would put himself and his family through this crap?"

others have...and for far less stakes than winning a war and saving the country from Clinton & the Left!!!

"you don't honestly think he could win, do you?"

I wouldn't have suggested him if I didn't.

Of course if you have a better candidate, name 'em!

Cheney has no 'change'? I beg to differ. lol

[Norman Bates]

That seems like a rather extreme statement.

[antisocial]

"No, he ain't running. If "true" conservatives want a candidate, it will either be Brownback or Mike Huckabee."

No true conservative would vote for an open borders flak like Brownback.

[LdSentinal]

Then who else? Duncan Hunter? Yeesh

[La Enchiladita]

I have thought for a long time that Tommy Franks is a Democrat. Does anyone know for certain that he is a Republican?

[newzjunkey]

It wasn't so long ago that conservatives the Rove Cultists believed that George Bush's presidency would usher in a political realignment that would last for decades.

There, fixed right up.

[webheart]

LOL, as I said, its the Republicans/Conservatives who decided to speak this Dem hack.

Really, all the stupid Time magazine reporter has to do is make a pot of coffee and read Free Republic for an hour or two. I saw nothing in that article that I didn't see here first.

How 'bout Cheney/Rice....cause ya know the 'Rats will run Hitlery/Obama

I'm not sure what that means. But I assume it means that if the Democrats run a horse and an ass, the Republicans should also?

I'm comparing neither to a horse nor an ass or for that matter a horse's ass. (although it's tempting)

Quote from Norman Bates: "It has been 14 YEARS since Quayle has left the public's eye."
*****

"Quayle pulled out of his bid for the 1996 Republican presidential nomination, citing health problems. In April 1999, he announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for 2000. In the first contest among the Republican candidates, the Iowa straw poll of June 1999, he finished eighth. He withdrew from the race the following month."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Quayle

**It has NOT been 14 years since Quale left the public eye. He left the public eye in 1999 when he withdrew from the Presidential race.

"Cheney has no 'change'? I beg to differ. lol"

Maybe for $100, not for a dollar.

[kellynla]

I like Duncan Hunter too, but outside of my state of Cali, I doubt few have ever heard of him...after all politics is checkers not chess! LOL
I'd like to see Hunter run for U.S. Senate!
Lord knows we need to replace "Dumb & Dumber!" :-]

[kellynla]

"I'm not sure what that means"

the obvious...countering the 'Rats Obama with Rice.

"Lord knows we need to replace "Dumb & Dumber!" :-]"

Amen to that, although I have to admit Boxer finally did something intelligent this week by rescinding the honor she bestowed on Basim Elkarra, the executive director of the Sacramento chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

She said: "We made a bad mistake not researching the organization," Boxer told The Bee. "My organization created this problem -- I caused people grief, and I feel terrible, yet I need to set the record straight and I'm setting the record straight."

I can't think of many times in the past I've agreed with anything she's done.
