HOWEVER, I disagree that this doesn't "set Rudy apart" from the other Republicans. Many of these things are tied together---Gonzolez, WoT, etc. So when McCrazy comes out and says Gonzolez should resign, and the same day Rudy ATTACKS DEMOCRATS, there is a huge gulf opening up. Romney, while he has been critical of Dems, isn't being INCINDIARY, which is what I think the GOP candidate needs to do at this point.
Put it this way: I predict, barring Fred getting into the race, that the first candidate to emphatically call for Harry Reid's resignation will win the nomination in a landslide!!

I basically agree regarding McCain. While he supports the WOT, his jabs at the President and his subordinates don't win any sympathy from me. IMO Don Rumsfield is a great American, and McCain stabbed him in the back. If I had to choose between Giuliani and McCain, that would have to be weighed in. It would be a hard choice for me.
Personally I don't want Republicans to treat Democrats in kind. Democrats play incendiary politics like pros, but it's one of the things I hate about them. The best approach IMO is to confront Democrats forcefully with reason and facts; not to use inflammatory rhetoric that serves only to obscure substantive debate.
Being the first to call for Reid's head won't win any votes. Let the Democrats show their true colors by putting folks like Reid in power. Shame them for it; call attention to it; fight them on every issue. But if they want to show the world how radical they are by lifting up men like him, let them. It can only help the Republicans.
“that the first candidate to emphatically call for Harry Reid’s resignation will win the nomination in a landslide!!”
Great! Duncan Hunter wins in a landslide!
Mr Hunter thanks you for your support.
