Yeah, here it is:

Lord please send this Yankee Liberal back home, in Jesus’ name.
Amen.

I can’t see why he wouldn’t eat grits unless he didn’t like Polenta as a kid. If you don’t like Polenta you won’t like Grits.

Well - allow me to go against my own use of polls.

I don’t know where McCain is popular in S.C. - but it ain’t in my neck of the woods.

That poll is a total shock - goes against everything I see and hear on a daily basis.

It’s like someone saying that Graham is popular in South Carolina - or Inglis.....

NOPE

It's an uphill battle to be sure, but Giuliani's message of fiscal conservatism and being tough on terrorism sells in the region -- even if his support for state gun control regulations doesn't.

Kentucky's 1st district, in 1994, voted in a republican for the first time since the civil war because our dem rep voted to bring the bill out of committee (even though he voted against it on the floor; we're smart enough to catch on to things like that around here) which then passed. Some things in the south simply will not be abided; gun control is one of them.

A man hobnobbing with a bunch of pols in a state legislature a presidential candidate does not make.

I think it’s the word Polenta.

Sounds funky.

Maybe that’s it - GRITS - it is not an appealing word.

We will see. From the look of things it looks like Edwards will sweep the south not a Republican.

No, he's too much of a nancy boy. Southerners despise that in people who are allegedly men.

I am selling that bridge.

FYI - Rudy is the keynote speaker at The Citadel’s graduation this year.

The Citadel is hardly given to inviting liberals to it’s parade ground.

Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, is scheduled to appear at The Citadel, a state-supported military college in South Carolina, another key primary state. The school has asked Giuliani to speak about “principled leadership,” said Charlene Gunnells, a spokeswoman for the school. Last year, Citadel’s commencement speaker was Gen. Peter Pace, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Neither is Fred Thompson or Duncan Hunter.

Marsha Mercer knows NOTHING about the south. This article is from WASHINGTON STATE!

Hers is the identical ignorant attitude which puts out a few bails of hey and things that makes them souther.

Bet she is impressed with Hillaries southern accent.

Guiliani’s problems are NOT his marriages, they are his left wing beliefs.

Why else would he, PER C-SPAN, this morning, have microfiled “all” his mayoral documents without any index. Essentially he had his records microfished in no particular order with no pattern.

Guiliani is hiding his NYC state of mind.

I agree with you.

Fred Thomson - has a solid chance to win the nomination.

Duncan Hunter - reminds me of my angry older uncle - no chance. Nice man - right on the issues - no chance.

Your vote is the POWER of you - never ever say walk away.

And one of the powers of that vote is the power to withhold it.

I would not object to seeing the GOP pendulum swing more toward the center - and away from a strict social conservative mantel.

What you seem to be calling the "center" was not long ago the far left.

What we really need are some radical conservatives to balance the left-wing radicals out there who have so long bandied their insanity about that people think they are merely liberals.

Rudy loses. Guns, Gays, Abortion, and immigration, and not necessarily in that order. The first is a Constitutional Right (which shall not be infringed), the second is not, the third is murder, and the last is a Constitutional obligation to secure our borders from foreign invasion.

As for being tough on terrorists, he did what to stop them, exactly?

All he did was refuse a check from the Saudis when he pretty much could count on billions in aid coming in, so a measly ten million was no big thing.

Nope, with his historical attitudes toward gunowners, WE are the "terrorists" Rudy would be tough on, not some foreigner with a vial of anthrax or a car bomb.

Y'all keep him. He never ran for mayor in America, only New York City.

Grits made it into the American diet when they were introduced to the first European settlers by the Indians up in New England.
