Yay! Another Rudy thread!
21 seconds. :-)
I'll post what I offered on the one I jst posted here..
Well, if and when he does announce, he is going to put the GUbinator on the spot..
Will McCain get tossed out with the bath water for Rudy after his standing by the Gub and raising money for him.. and What about Duncan, aRnie?
The debate to move the primary will be interesting.
I say
NO.
1. After eight years as Mayor, NY remained a high tax socialist hellhole. There goes his "fiscal conservative" bonafides.
2. Has a long history of questionable friends (Bernie Kerick, Ray Harding). There goes the "honesty" card.
3. Has a history of abandoning women when a new gal catches his eye. At least BC remained married. There goes the "moral integrity" card.
4. Lived with two gay roomates after divorce. Not that there's anything wrong with it. ;-)
5. Is on the record CONDEMNING the 1996 immigration reforms and Prop 187, stating that "NY thrives because of immigrants, documented and UNdocumented. There goes the "securing our borders card."
6. Has a history of being vehemently anti-gun, claiming that the 2nd amendment allows for "reasonable regulation." Of course, this is fitting for a law and order fetishist.
7. The last point illustrates that he has little understanding of "original intent."
8. Pro-abortion.
9. Governed a city where the majority of inhabitants are either effete yuppies, third world immigrants, or the children of the latter. There goes the "I am an American" card.
10. Has said NOTHING about foreign policy, other than superficial sound bites and Likud Party talking points (plagiarist!). So much for "Mr. National Security."
11. Had VERY low approval ratings until 9/11 happenned, due to a lack of ethics, and clumsy handling of police shootings. There goes the "competance" card.
No to this gun grabber.
We need to nominate a Republican, Not a gun grabbing, pro abortion, pro gay marrage "Republican"

Whats the announcement.. HE's SWITCHING PARTYS?...
The GOP inches closer to the moral and the political cliff.
He's taking his time to prolong the pain of the RudyHaters on FR.
-1983, U.S. Attorney for the SD of NY.
Soo, when are they going to announce his official announcement?
Yawn. That's why we need a RINO HUNTER.
I will support any candidate in the general election who holds this view. A president with this conviction is the only thing that will stand in the way of our feckless Congress' capitulation on the world stage and a massive slaughter in Iraq.
It is issue #1.
