But I must admit, he is taking the fight to the real enemy’s of America.

I support Rudy and agree, but it must also be noted that John McCain and Duncan Hunter have come out strongly in support of our troops and strongly opposed to the Harry Reid (D-Vichy) surrender monkey approach.

If and when Fred Thompson formally enters the race he needs to do the same, and I expect he will.

All Republican candidates need to hit the 'rats hard on this. I fully expect to be marking my ballot "R" in November 2008. Frankly, I care FAR LESS about WHICH Republican gets nominated than I do about making sure we elect Victory (R) instead of defeat (D) in November 2008.

Thanks for your fair comment. I have no doubt we will be on the same team come Election Day.

Difference is Rudy can get down and dirty to the point that McClain and Hunter can’t. Rudy is a former prosecutor. You don’t become a federal prosecutor unless you are competitive and vindictive. He has the same mentality that a athlete does. He hates to lose.

He has a the mean streak the others don’t. Rudy enjoys a fight and he enjoys making the other person look enept.

I agree, at first I was a I’ll stay home if Rudy, but he has my ear. And I am not a single issue voter, he has done and said things that I do not agree with.

But he isn’t a Socialist, so I will vot ethe anti-Socialist ticket.

Fred has done so---even today---but the difference between (so far) Rudy and everyone else is that Rudy is not just "supporting the war" or "supporting the troops": he's ACTIVELY blaming the Dems and attacking them for what they are, weak weasels.

Until Mitt, or McCrazy or even Fred Thompson start identifying DEMOCRATS as the problem as well as the terrorists, they will not gain ground on Rudy. Someone is advising him really well.
