Rudy Beats Hillary – End of Story

Special to FreeRepublic ^ | 4 March 2007 | John Armor (Congressman Billybob)

[Congressman Billybob]

My task is to call 'em as I see 'em, and let the chips fall where they may. There is sometimes a rather large gap between how things would be if I had dictatorial control of the world, and how things really are.

So, quarrel my conclusions if you choose. But stick to the observable facts. This is not an opinion/preference column.

oh man, this thread is going to be wild.

[DTogo]

A year from now you may be right, you may be wrong. It's way too early to call.

[Vision]

I think this is the end of the story.

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

[Mr. Brightside]

If we are simply looking for anyone who can beat Hillary, why not support Obama?

[Enosh]

"Rudy Beats Hillary – End of Story"

False and false.

[TitansAFC]

If the GOP is comfortable nominating Rudy Giuliani, then there is little point to the GOP anymore.

And that's an observable fact.

If I have to choose between Liberals, I'll take the one that gives me "free stuff." After all, with all of my issues off of the table, aren't I just supposed to vote my pocketbook?

[mysterio]

My task is to call 'em as I see 'em

Yeah, mine too. And if you vote for a gun grabber against a gun grabber, a gun grabber gets elected.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

Any body that is for a gun grabber, for the planned murder of the most helpless and is against American Sovereignty will never get my vote!

[Captainpaintball]

So does BILL Clinton.

[atomicpossum]

A year from now you may be right, you may be wrong. It's way too early to call.

Halleluiah. It's ten months 'til the primaries begin. A bit to early to crown anyone.

[stockpirate]

Lets hold the primaries first.

I do not think Hillery willmake it, and a real conservative can beat her.

Besides I should not pick someone becasue I think they can beat someone else, but pick them based on what they will do for our country.

[cajungirl]

I think you are spot on. Rudi will get crossover votes. Hillary wont.

The question is. Do the pubs want to win?

[wireman]

Another donnybrook!

Observable facts? It's a noble concept with absolutely no chance.

[popdonnelly]

I already support Guiliani. I don't want to give the leftist whackos a chance to run this country.

[Captainpaintball]

And I know Bill isn't running.

[cripplecreek]

I should not pick someone becasue I think they can beat someone else, but pick them based on what they will do for our country.

Thank you.

"Hillary Clinton juggernaut will roll over all challengers, beginning with Barack Obama"

Not true her first bouit with him she lost 15 points nd he picked up about the same.

[migraines]

Expect 45% of the party to go fishing if this liberal tries to take the party of Ronald Reagan. You must be a "pod Person" from invasion of the body snatchers.

[RebelBanker]

I have only one quibble with your otherwise excellent column: Who is "we"? James Taranto habitually uses the imperial "we" when composing "Best of the Web Today" for OpinionJournal.com. I must admit to finding it distracting and a bit annoying.

That being said, thank you very much for the first hand report from the CPAC shindig. I have read so many different spins on the event it is quite difficult to sort fact from fiction.
