All day today we are covering speakers and panels at the 34th Annual Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, DC. This morning, we'll hear from Republican presidential hopeful former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. He will be followed by Reps. Scott Garrett (NJ), Tom Tancredo (CO), and others.

Thanks for your on-the-fly transcription! Great job.
Ronald Reagan was no Ronald Reagan!
Rudy Guiliani accomplished miracles in turning New York City from a cesspool to a veritable paradise -- a process which had zero to do with pursuing liberal policies and *everything* to do with executing conservative policies.
I am sure as an Arizonian, you are far more familiar with Rudy Guiliani's record as Mayor, than I am, as a life-long New Yorker.
And BTW, tell us about how many miracles *you* have accomplished.
Exactly. He passed the test with flying colors!
OK...that explains it.
Standing O for you too!
You did an incredible job of keeping up with the speech for those of us unable to watch.
You're welcome. I thought he did terrific -- all without notes.
Ugh, I've been to Omaha.
Evidently there is a legion of conservatives who feel it is their duty to help cultivate the (largely wrong) image of conservatives as dull, humorless duds.
New York City. LOL
Tell my sidebar hello next time you're there.
Yikes! How did that happen, sorry!
He left his kids without a father in the home. Can you not see the irony of Will mention kids without fathers in the home in introducing Giuliani when Giuliani himself was responsible for leaving a 10 and a 14 year old without a father in the home so that he could shack up with the object of his latest sexual fling.
Reagan used to say my 80% ally is not my 20% enemy.
It's okay. I'll just keep talking until it gets off my profile page.
"Ahhh...my super secret plan to send squirrels into CPAC worked."
LOL!
So, what's Rudolph/Rula wearing--heels? Sensible shoes?
From the comments I've read it appears that he's steering well clear of social issues, while waving the bloody shirt to tatters.
Spiff, honestly... do you come equipped with a rheostat? You really should learn to tone down the non-stop hysteria, over and over. It would make your opposition much more effective. Instead of persuading me or winning me over -- and Rudy is not my dream candidate -- you're actually enforcing the impression that you're unreasonable and not to be taken seriously. You're too much.
"St Rudy just got BOOED!!!"
More disinformation.
It was at the mention of FRANCE that the crowd booed.
I really think you should avoid the marriage issues. I think your best posting buddy would agree.
You're gonna lose that argument with every divorced parent in the nation.
Good analysis.
