You took the running on the Democratic line quote out of context. Rudy obviously meant that if he could, he would run on all lines because he would win with 99.99% of the vote. I have seen staunchly Liberal and staunchly Conservative people do this before for that precise reason.

As for the rest of the video, its disturbing that on so many social issues he is a liberal.

[RabidBartender]

Wow. Just wow.

[RockinRight]

That line itself I was fine with - he was just playing politics there. It's all the other stuff he said that I have issue with.

[motormouth]

....."despite what certain Freepers suggest."

Thats why Im saying that the reason I wont vote Rudy is because of his lisp.. THAT they CANT deny. ;o)

Bump for later reference. Wonder how the Pro-Rudy crowd will try and spin this? Guess they could claim he was taken over by an alien life-form. And to those that tried to pass the BS line that Rudy was not for CFR, caught ya!!

In his own words he supported CFR, to say nothing of Hand Gun registration, Gays in the Military, civil unions and abortions.

Nothing like using his own words to catch him with.

[JCEccles]

He's MARGINALLY better than Hillary

IOW, he's the best Democrat in the race.

Let's run a Republican on the Republican ticket, shall we?

[RockinRight]

LOL!!! Good point.

As I said a few posts up, if it comes down to him vs. Hillary, I'll put a vice grip on my nose and probably end up voting for him, if only to keep the Hildebeast out of office, but I'll do it kicking and screaming.

[alicewonders]

It is confounding to me how people on a conservative web site such as FR can support Rudy Guiliani. Yes, he did a good job after 9/11 - but - Joe Lieberman also did a good job supporting Bush on the WOT - but it doesn't mean I would want him to be my President! He is too liberal.

[RockinRight]

That's what I'm hoping for. Newt, Hunter, or even Romney as a last-resort are better than Rudy or McCrazy.

[trumandogz]

Great Find.


I wonder how the Rudyistas will defend this one?

[yhwhsman]

It's sad that he's seriously running for president as a republican.

I'm glad he's running as a Republican, I don't think the GOP would stand a chance if he was running as a Democrat.

I noticed that before I even put up the 2nd post, these 2 keywords were already there.

IHATERUDY; RUDYISADOODOOHEAD;

I did not post them. I think the rudophile plan is to turn this thread into a flamefest.

[calcowgirl]

RUSSERT: Whether its gays in the military, gun control, campaign finance, late-term abortion, you and Hillary Clinton are in synch on those issues.

GIULIANI: Then maybe, maybe the other side should stop the "he's part of the vast right wing conspiracy."

Uh, Rudy... he's saying you are the other side. There ain't no right-wing in this equation.

"I would like to run on the Democratic line if I could figure out how to do it."
-Rudy Giuliani

"Most of Clinton's policies are similar to most of mine."
-Rudy Giuliani

With every passing day, it becomes a little bit more clear that Rudy's supporters support him because of the fact that he is a Clinton clone, not in spite of it.

[Sam Ketcham]

So much for Rudy. At least he stepped out promptly on 9-11. He didn't take cover for 8 hours in some cave.

[alicewonders]

(And shhhh... don't tell anyone, but at the local level in New York, and particulalry in NYC, cross-endorsement is very common.)

Shhhh.....don't tell anyone, but we're not as stupid as you like to think we are.

[Kevmo]

But he is very well spoken and articulate.

"I'm a big supporter of McCain-Feingold. I have been for a long time."

[hellbender]

Actually it's the Rudycrats who are the "single-issue" people. Their whole shtick is "Rudy can keep us safe" and "Rudy can beat Hillary." OK, that's 2 issues, but they have no evidence for either; Rudy has no expertise whatsoever on national defense, and no electoral history beyond a certain very peculiar city.

[motormouth]

I can understand that and I think many people feel the same way as you. Im still hoping for Hunter to catch fire. Long shot? Yes. But he has my support 110% right now. If it turns out he doesnt get things running, I will decide later what to do.
