That makes sense, Jerry Ford was a RINO, may he rest in peace.

[EternalVigilance]

Wow. An endorsement from the grave. From one of the biggest RINOs ever.

Sorry Rudy. Jerry’s now voting Democrat in Michigan...

[HerrBlucher]

he's just a leader."

Yup, down the path of liberalism and to the destruction of the GOP. He leads, we bleed, liberalism succeeds...NO THANKS!

[trisham]

Everyone is wrong sometimes.

"Well, if they want to win, Giuliani. He's really good, he's articulate ............

I'm confused. I thought Obama was the "articulate" candidate.

[elizabetty]

President Ford was the last pro-abortion GOP president this country had.

Let's not go back there.

[samtheman]

Ford was 92 when he said this and yes he was a RINO, but as RINOs go he was one of the better ones. I think he tried to do a good job as prez, but the forces of treason were strongly aligned against him and the job of dealing with them was obviously bigger than he could handle.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Is anyone surprised by this? Ford was part of the old Rockefeller wing of the GOP.

[Constantine XIII]

How many presidential elections is Ford win again? lol

[farmer18th]

The loser picks a loser.

[the invisib1e hand]

ok. let's go over it again, so the we understand what the man said. he said, "Well, if they want to win, Giuliani. He's really good, he's articulate - he's just a leader."

He did not say that FReepers would like him. He did say that, if the GOP wants to win, Rudy has the best shot making that happen.

He did not say Rudy was the next Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan, or anyone else. He did admire Rudy's charisma.

Now, whether you like Rudy or not, he is the only candidate currently announced who is capable of defeating X42's spouse. That doesn't mean you have to like him. But it is a practical and political reality.

So, slandering Gerald Ford is juvenile way of disagreeing with his point.

Let's see, can we get a measure of Latino slander in here while we're at it?

[org.whodat]

Who’s Jerry ford and why should I care?

[Dustbunny]

If after the primary it was Rudy or Hitlery, we would pick the lesser of two evils and vote for Rudy.

[pillut48]

Sheesh, now the dead guys are pushing Rudy! Give us a break!

I’m waiting for some long lost correspondence from Ronald Reagan promoting FRed as his successor, anyone got it lying around? ;-)

[Hydroshock]

So. I will never vote for this liberal, statist, elitist RINO. I will go third party first.

[Biblebelter]

Jerry Ford was a Warren Commission stooge.

Jerry Ford was a SELECTED Preisident before he was elected.

My memory was that he an his RINO buddies Griffith, Michel, et. al, did Reagan dirty in the 1976 Republican Convention floor flight which delayed four years of "morning in America" and gave us four years of a very small man who was probably the most mean-spirted and bitter man to ever occupy the oval office.

[Hydroshock]

RINO’s like Ford almost killed the Republican party. I remember under his leadership the Democrats had about 275 seats in congress and a firm control of the senate. Lets not go back there.

[o_zarkman44]

I am not convinced that anyone from New York has a clue about what the nation needs outside of the East Coast.

Only candidates from the center of America have a sense of what life is beyond one urban area.
Go Fred!!

[Ol' Sparky]

Who cares what some RINO President that nominated John Paul Stevens to SCOTUS thought, especially now that he is dead?

[upchuck]

I’m wondering why the NY Daily Snooze would recycle something that’s a year and a half old.

The political landscape has changed a bunch since then.
