I read the Rudy threads - I've heard everyone's defense of him - I have an open mind & do my own research before I make up my mind on something. You all have your reasons for supporting him - I have my reasons for supporting Hunter.

I know I am not going to convince a die-hard Rudy supporter to come over to the Duncan Hunter side - life's too short to waste on such an impossible dream.

By the same token - you are never going to convince me that Rudy is the best choice for our party to win in 2008 - NEVER. Let's agree to disagree & stop wasting precious time with this in-fighting. It's America - we can support who we want to.

Well said, and brimming with practical advice...that probably no one will heed.

Just to let you know, I would eagerly pull the lever for Mr. Hunter or any Republican nominee: I can't stand the 'rats.

However, as a New Yorker who has seen Mayor Rudy Giuliani in action, I still think he has great leadership skills that would be a tremendous asset in the presidency during these perilous times of war.
