Rudy Takes Message to Talk Radio (Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh)
Washington Post ^ | 3/28/07

Posted on 03/28/2007 6:27:42 AM PDT by areafiftyone

Continuing his courtship of conservatives, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is running radio ads on the popular talk radio shows hosted by Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.

"My campaign is about leadership and optimism," Giuliani says in the ad. "We need strong leadership to stay on offense in the war against terrorists." (Listen to the ad here.)

He also highlights his support for "supply side policies and reduced government spending" to "keep the economy growing."

The commercial ends with a plug for his campaign site -- joinrudy2008.com.

Advertising on Rush Limbaugh's show? Smart move.


Rudy is pushing all the right buttons.

such treacle......and Hannity doesn't even pretend to be open minded about the primaries so many months in the future.

Somewhat deceptive headline.

Running ads and dropping names.

Say what you will about Rudy, but he's coming out strong and playing for keeps. He's hitting the radio shows where people can get a feel for him, even in the face of potentially hostile social conservative audiences.

Anyone that's going to try and stop him is going to have a very tough fight on their hands. Romney and McCain can't keep up, Hunter and Paul can't break the low single digits, and no one else seems willing to get in the ring. Unless Newt or Fred get off their rears and make a play soon, Rudy's momentum will be increasingly unlikely to overcome.

I guess he doesn't think Rush is "irrelevant".

Agreed. Thompson is the only one on the radar I can see making a race out of this.

Umm, no. He's running scripted ads.

I dunno, I've heard him on Hannity and a few other shows, taking calls and answering questions. Or is that what you meant by scripted ads? I know the shows are somewhat formatted, but I wouldn't go so far as to call them scripted.

He's running scripted ads.

So you think all the other candidates and potential candidates won't do that if they have the money. I'm waiting for McCain and Romney to do that and maybe Hunter. Its' the smart thing to do - reach a wide audience like that.

I'm simply refering to the story posted.

It says he is running ads on Sean and Rush.

I'm just pointing out the facts.

The headline makes it sound like he's going on the shows.

He isn't.

I'd love to see Rudy kicking Harry Reid around DC like a soccer ball.
