Rudy will support the Republican Presidential candidate in '08...bookmark this page if you want to remember that I told you so, and Happy Thanksgiving.
The anti-Rudy sentiment is truely amazing. That self professed conservatives bite onto liberal media offerings as long as they serve their own self interests.... points to a really shallow mind set amongst some of us.
For those who have never been to NYC. There are nearly 30 million people within an hour of downtown. NJ/NY/CT depend on it being a lively functioning city. In the 1970s and 80s it was not. In the 90s it became one thanks to conservative principals brought forth by Rudy Giuliani. There is no other candidate on either ticket who can claim a 1/10th of his accomplishments. His liberal positions were and still are purely political in nature and what was required to co-exist with a 98% super majority of Democrats. I know that is hard for some of the self loathers here on this board to understand, but in time your common sense will return. Had Rudy been a hard line conservative in approach to NYC, we would not even be talking about him. We’d be talking about mayor Al Sharpton and how NYC is the cess pool of the planet.
Why?, because he is the only candidate that has a clear and undeniable track record for success. People with common sense know that the Mayor of a city with a $30bn budget can not be directly accountable for procurement of radios....same as a fortune 50 CEO does not personally buy his employees laptops or whatever tools of their trade they require.
McCain is too old. Romney’s health plan in Mass is starting to unravel and will be a big story as the numbers roll in there soon. The other guys, too bad are just not electable at this point, however all attractive VP candidates. Huckabee will not be a factor east of the Mississippi.
Rudy is the only one who can beat Hillary. People with common sense will understand his association with Kerik as a before the fact issue. He will easily be able to point to Hillary’s after the fact association with Sandy Burglar. People will come to know how NYC changed and how he did it against a 98% Democrat council. Hillary has zero tangible evidence of having done anything ever.
