Why do you think Rudy would be worthwhile regarding the war on terror? Because he says so? Other than being outraged at the attack on the WTC (along with 300 million others) what has he done. Well, one thing he tried to do was to get his x-limo driver put in charge of Homeland Security... What a jerk.
Rudy is definitely not my first choice and socially, I agree with you that he is basically a democrat. But I have listened, and he talks constantly about protecting this country against terrorism. I believe he would do infinitely more to prevent a terrorist against than any democrat running. Yes, because he says so. He is a competent manager and we know that he did an amazing job with improving crime rates in NY. We don’t know what anyone will do once in the oval office, but I believe the Rudy is essentially a straight shooter. Very far from perfect and not my first choice. But I cannot envision my beloved country in the hands of another democrat. I want my child and future grandchildren to have a country that exists and one that they can be proud of.
