and how he is the right guy in the War on Terror.

With the exception of Ron Paul, there is not a single GOP candidate who would be weak on the war. Though Rudy acted appropriately on 9/11, that doesn't make him an anti-terror god.

Since this isn't exactly PC Central Station, one doesn't piss off a New York Italian Catholic and expect policy to be directed at "The Religion of Peace". IMHO, Rudy sees the Middle East as a poorly-organized gang of backward Holland Tunnel Squeegie Men funded by the Saudis.

Which, morally, would be an improvement. The only other Repub making national security a centerpiece is, arguably, Tancredo. Hunter's campaign isn't getting any exposure, as much as I like that guy, too. Play the hand we're dealt. We're bigger men, and, more importantly, Citizens of the Republic.
