So whom do you think ANY of the Democrats will appoint to the Supreme Court?!

OK, what are Rudy's national security credentials beyond his performance on 9/11?

He thumbed his nose at the law and Congress to keep a couple hundred thousand illegal alien foreign nationals in his city.

Doesn't that count for something?

;-)

This guy makes BJ Clinton look like an amateur horn dog.

Yeah! If he's nominated, I'm voting for Hillary so that BJ (the lesser of the two evils) can get back into the White House. /s

Giuliani got to pick 100 judges as Mayor.

He told Hugh Hewitt how important that task was to him.

Name me five who were Republicans...Giuliani "Republicans" even.

Two things: national security, and Hillary Clinton's Supreme Court appointments.

Anything else, is purely academic. That's why he's leading consistently in the polls, hello.

Others will figure it out soon enough.

Hunterites don't understand that the nation won't elect a legislator for POTUS.

And thank Heavens, that goes for senators in spite of an occasional scary close call.

So again: you have the choice Hillary vs. Rudy.

The primaries haven't even taken place yet.

"Name me five who were Republicans...Giuliani "Republicans" even."

Why don't YOU prove your insinuation that every one was a Democrat which I do NOT believe.

So again: you have the choice Hillary vs. Rudy. Are you going to be a "conservative for Hillary" or get out and vote for the Republican candidate, who, at the moment appears to very likely be Rudy.

You're talking to some of the "sit it out" morons who helped give the the Dem Congress we now are blessed with.

"If Rudy Giuliani were running for the DEMOCRATIC nomination for President, would you cross party lines and vote for him?"
It all depends on WHO would be running against him.


OK, I'll play. Let's say (hypothetically) that is was someone like Mitt Romney. Do you vote for the 'Rat nominee (Rudy) or do you go with Romney?

And election is NOT between some imaginary people vs. real ones, it's between TWO (READ AGAIN: TWO) candidates and you MUST choose between them, or you are voting for the worst one.

That is nothing but absolutism. If both candidates equally stink, your vote is still going to bring you the aroma of dead fish on the morning after Election Day.

So again: you have the choice Hillary vs. Rudy. Are you going to be a "conservative for Hillary" or get out and vote for the Republican candidate, who, at the moment appears to very likely be Rudy.

Don't count your Rudys before they hatch (or at least until they make it through the primaries intact. I'd lay even odds that as the media puts a brighter and brighter spotlight on Rudy, he may decide that it's not worth that kind prying into his personal history, and just like he did in 2000, he'll withdraw from the race in question.

Hillary is likewise, not automatically assured of the 'Rat nomination. It's too easy to forget that it is over a year before the primary process will be completed, and the respective nominating conventions of each major party convened, and THAT is a political eternity.

A LOT can happen between now and then.

Yes, Hunter has real momentum, he went from 1% to 2% in the polls, where the margin of error is 2.5% -- a real winner and a strong candidate against Hillary. (/SARCASM)

Duncan Hunter would eat Hillary's lunch in a debate on national security. And of all the candidates, only Duncan Hunter has been called 'magnificent' by noneother than Ann Coulter.

As I've said already, it's still early in this race.

I see so little difference in the two of them, I would probably stay home on election day.

All but two, from the evidence that I've been able to glean out of Giuliani's supporters.
