“....OUCH!

Hillary just came in LAST in a George Soros Poll, according to NewsMax. Soro’s candidate, Barack Obama, came in first, Edwards second and Hillary third. Looks like Barack owns the deep pockets of the number one Socialist in America. Rudy will kick his butt.

That’s pretty scary. Our leading (gag!) candidate raised only $18 million vs. $25 million for Obama and $26 million for Her Heinousness.

Apples and oranges when comparing the needed funds for the primaries between two different parties......

Now if this hold true for the General campaign should they decide to forego federal funding then it really matters there.

It wouldn't be Free Republic if liberals and their supporters' posts weren't slammed.

Money isn’t everything. Presidents Perot and Forbes have learned that. You need enough money, but you don’t necessarily need the most money.

Good quote. Let me illustrate it for you as precisely as possible:

Question: Do you believe there is a such thing as "global warming" and what about Governor Schwartzenegger's position - do you support him in the legislation?

Giuliani: I do. I do believe there's global warming. Yes. And...and I...I think there are...I'm not a scientist all I can do is look at the reports. I think the last one said that...uh...ummm...fir-fir-first of all there's definitely global warming as far as I can tell. I guess the big question has always been how much is it, how much of it is happening because of just natural climate changes and progressions and how much is happening because of human intervention - carbon in particular - and the overwhelming majority of the scientists believe that there's significant human cause that's making it more difficult, making it worse.

And I've always thought the debate was a little bit...uh...um...unnecessary because most of the things that are happening with global warming are happening with pollution and we should be, we should be dealing with pollution anyway. So, it seems to me there's a community of interest here to do the things that are necessary to reduce polluting the environment.

Question: Have you seen "Inconvenient Truth" and there are some people that say that there aren't a lot of solutions that are posed. You've basically condemned the movie.

Giuliani: Oh, I didn't condemn it. Condemn is a really bad...condemn...condemn...condemn is when you put somebody in jail or s...something like that. What I found...what I found indadequate...what I found inadequate about the movie wasit really didn't have any (microphone problems - laughter) I thought this was a technology conference...Um...I didn't think that it had any real strong suggestions about how, about how to deal with it. What...what...I would have been much more satisfied with that movie if it had listed, you know our...uh...what kind of research is going to be done on carbon sequestration, how are you gonna cuh...how are you gonna create clean coal. Is coal the way to go? How much are you going to increase ethanol and uh how much research and development and exactly how can that reduce the problem?

These are all things that we have to do. And we don't do them because of the fluctuations very often of the price of gasoline. And we don't do them because there are special interests that stop them and I did not detect in the movie the same zeal to take on those special interests as I did in explaining the problem.

Rudy removed ALL doubt with those answers. Fool...

How does this compare to what was raised by true conservatives like:

- Duncan Hunter
- Tom Tancredo
- Fred Thompson
- Newt Gingrich
- Alan Keyes
- Pat Buchanan
- George Allen

Been a few years since there has been an open primary for the GOP president. But in reality nothing has changed from the 99-00 time frame of slamming, spamming, name calling etc of the front runners...

Heck the front runner back then was a ‘cokehead’, draft dodger, NWO stoogie, drunkard, lightweight, ignorant, and who knows what else. That’s politics as played on the internet today.

Giuliani needs enough cash to run in the GOP primaries and that isn’t necessarily the same as needed by the Dems to compete against Hillary. The general will be a different senario should they choose to forego fed funding. So Rudy is doing okay as he is competing against others as top contenders for the GOP money.

Rudy raised most of the money in one month. These are good numbers, in fact.

I guess Newt is a dolt too - he believes in global warming based on his “debate” with Kerry.
