This thread clearly illustrates why this "Rudy is far better than Hillary" mantra is utter nonsense. Rudy would be far more dangerous to this country than Hillary would -- simply because we've got a lot of so-called "conservatives" here supporting Rudy Giuliani on issues and initiatives that they would never accept in a bazillion years if they were proposed by Hillary Clinton.
A FReeper who would prefer Hillary over Rudy is a "cut off your nose to spite your face" type. I'm quite familiar with these sorts of emotional hotheads who bases decision on emotion rather than reason. Such is life and we have to work around them.
