It is all your fault for posting this! :) And my fault for calling it a push poll as well! :)
The Keyes people will say and do anything to attack Rudy -- seen it before and will continue to see it. The rest of us just keep plugging on because we realize the most important issue of our time has to do with national security.
When the one issue crowd threw their temper tantrum in 2006 in staying home or voting for the most conservative candidate they thought (DemocRAT), they made themselves pretty irrelevant in this election because as one Freeper said the Traditionalist Conservative Republicans are taking back over. When the evanglicals and one issue folks drank the koolaid of the DemocRATs and put them back in power because there was no difference, that did it for me.
National Security is my #1 issue. Social Conservatives picked the statewide candidates in the primary in OK and look what happened, we got clobbered in the general election in a conservative state. They pushed their agenda too far and became arrogant. You have to have balance and they had none!
This article proves one big point...the Rudy-haters are coming from the same point of view as NBC.
And this is supposed to be a knock on "Keyes people"? LOL...
But, even if we were disposed to "say and do anything," which we're not, there is no need for such tactics. Giuliani's words and record, starkly presented with little comment, attack Rudy's credibility with principled Republicans more than sufficiently.
The rest of us just keep plugging on because we realize the most important issue of our time has to do with national security.
Rudy Giuliani fought the law and Congress for years before 9-11 to keep NYC an open sanctuary city for illegal aliens...foreign nationals of the exact sort who flew the planes into the WTC.
The claims that a leftwing Republican would be strong on national defense are specious, at best. History proves otherwise.
It's laughable, really, and shows either dishonesty or extreme ignorance and naivete.
