Yes, Rudy is the best spokesperson for American exceptionalism because he is the strongest believer--he is a cheerleader: "America has always been about big ideas, not big government."

By preserving the Republic against the Islamofascist onslaught, he insures that the last, best crucible of those ideas is preserved, a crucible wherein a general may propose a stand against immorality--and not a discouraging word will be heard--outside of the candidate from Massachusetts and the usual Senate bloviators.

He made the city safe for all its citizens--and he'll do the same for the country.

And he has personal opinions--but they are not the prime mover; the prime mover is the security-slash-fiscal crisis.

Expect wailing and gnashing of teeth from sectors including but not limited to CAIR, ACLU, Code Pink, Al Gore's Carbon-Offsets-R-Us, et al.

And he's likeable.
