Why are we even hearing about Rudy Giuliani, except as a democrat candidate?

Why are we even hearing about Rudy Giuliani, except as a democrat candidate?

Because the commiecRATs MSM wants RinoRudy to be the GOP candidate.
That way no matter which party wins the Presidency we get a liberal.

[Pietro]

"Considering his poll numbers are plummeting"

Poll numbers mean nothing. Votes count and the earliest voting is a couple months away.

Mayhaps Rudi is feeling some heat.

[TommyDale]

"Thompson said Giuliani's pro-abortion, pro-gun control and pro-illegal-immigration positions as mayor are wrong for the GOP."

Wow, a Presidential candidate speaking out against Rudy on some serious issues. What a concept!

Laugh about it shout about it when you've got to choose

Anyway you look at it you lose

"Laugh about it shout about it when you've got to choose"

Ala Hillary!The queen of smirk and cackle.

[calcowgirl]

Rudy who?

(Good job, Fred)

[Flintlock]

Rudy’s an OK candidate—he’s just running IN THE WRONG PARTY.

[A2J]

I'm telling everyone right now that if Giuliani is elected, he would be the end of the Republican party because once his liberal policies begin to decimate the economy, and it will, voters will see that he's a "Republican" and vote them out office.

In other words, Giuliani will undo what Gingrich and the real Republicans did in 1994 by sending the GOP back to years of minority status.

Giuliani and his shills love to claim that reversed the raising crime rate in NYC. As with so much of the Giuliani myth, the truth is that perception is more a matter of spin than fact.

In 1990, William Bratton was appointed Chief of Police of the New York City Transit Police by Mayor Dinkins. He significantly brought down crime in the subways which earned him an offer from the city of Boston to become Superintendent in Chief of the Boston Police Department.

In 1994 George Kelling, the social scientist from whom Giuliani got the “broken windows” theory of crime reduction, pushed Giuliani to hire Bratton as New York City’s Police Commissioner. Unlike Giuliani and his shills, Mr. Bratton readily acknowledges the fact that crime was already falling under Mr. Dinkins and his Police Commissioner, Ray Kelly. What hadn’t been turned around, he admits, were the quality-of-life offenses “that reminded people of crime,” from the squeegee men who flocked to crowded intersections to the aggressive begging that could be seen on the streets and in the subways.

Mr. Bratton also admits that the majority of the new cops Giuliani takes credit for putting on the streets of New York were authorized to be hired under the “Safe Streets, Safe City” program were approved in Mayor Dinkins’s tenure but had not actually made it to the streets until Mr. Giuliani took office.

When one looks close there is no “there” to Giuliani. He is totally a product of spin and self promotion.

"Considering his poll numbers are plummeting across the board and his campaign has never managed to pick up steam, looks like Fred Thompson should have stuck to his day job," said Giuliani spokeswoman Maria Comella.

Nice, attack but no denial of what Fred said.

Fred supporters should consider making one of those timelines showing Rudy making statements favoring abortion and gun control with dates and then a contrasting set of Fred’s recorded Senate votes opposing abortion and gun control laws.

It could be quite effective.

*************

How gracious. Just what we expect from the Giuliani campaign.

[tioga]

THIS is why Rudy will never make a good Republican candidate.........he is NOT conservative. FRED goes to the big apple and minces Rudy. it WOULD be a nightmare to have Rudy running on our side........the real conservatives would all stay home.

[2ndDivisionVet]

But, but...only Rudy can take on Hillary, don’t ya know?!/sarc

[papasmurf]

Even his campaign reeks of arrogance unworthy of my attention or my vote.

[papasmurf]

I agree. I will not even vote if we don’t have a real Conservative, like FRed or Duncan, on the ballot.

[Texas Federalist]

Considering his poll numbers are plummeting
