Rudy is perceived and supported for his strengths in national security and fiscal conservatism. And the SOB factor to reverse the new tone.
Fred Thompson demonstrated a steel trap legal mind with his eight-minute skewering of the judge and prosecutor in the Libby case last week and would be a sorely needed Attorney General to tell the Beltway how the cow ate the cabbage during this war.
Nobody else can close the deal: acceptance, organization, fundraising, kevlar psyche to withstand the Full Saul Alinsky.
I will vote Republican a year from November whoever is the presidential nominee.
We cannot allow the Left to install Mrs. Bill Clinton, Hussein Obama or The Breck Girl--they'll all surrender in Iraq and everywhere around the world until the sleeper cells have all the freed-up assets to activate and disrupt the economy here.
The Left will strangle defense and intelligence and jack taxes to the stratosphere, crushing security and the economy.
Security and the economy are Rudy's strengths.
I shook Bob Livingston's hand when he came to speak at my Senate candidate's kickoff dinner in Santa Fe (Paul Shanklin performed) and his hand was a limp fish and he was visibly startled when I approached--gun-shy.
He had quit after Newt quit--they quit.
Now we've got the new tone.
I want an SOB, the kind who threw out Arafat and Castro and told the museum it couldn't crap on the Holy Mother.
Londonistan and Mark Steyn's America Alone and Tony Blankley's The West's Last Stand indicate this is the last island in a sea of enemies.
Rudy says we need to start dealing with Iran and Syria--he had people who jumped out of his buildings and that's his take-away: it's serious.
To Mrs. Bill Clinton, it's something she resents, it's bad air quality, those towers.
Further this deponent sayeth not.

An excellent post! THIS is the bottom line.
Newt didn't quit.
I will be doing so too.
