OMG, don't these people ever learn? Mehlman was kicked out of the RNC for engineering the Repub debacle of Nov 2006. That disaster occurred in no small part from Mehlman sending Giuliani across the country to campaign for Repubs.
Conservatives were appalled to see abortion worshipping, gun-grabbing, gay-loving Giuliani hustling votes on THEIR campaign trail........and responsed accordingly.
Course Mehlman's really bright idea was for Rudy to rack up campaign chits of winning candidates that Rudy would cash in as the 2008 candidate. That never happened b/c all the candidates lost, thanks to Ridy.
And let's not forget.........this was BEFORE voters found out Rudy was porkng his mistress on the taxpayers' dime, that he had super-secret global business doings and that Kerik, Rudy's driver, bodyguard, and Police Commissioner (in that order) was a mobbed-up tax evader who lied to the WH.
Most excellent rant, again...
However, I must point out that"porking his mistress" is a redundant turn of phrase..
in that the noun presumes the verb...
Oh, yeah...Merry Christmas!!!
Great summary, Liz. It should be turned into an internet handbill and mailed to every Republican email account in America.
In the meantime, Rudy's taken the gloves off and gone to bed with a headache and flu.
JCEccles, you're right about absenteeism on Thompson's part. But it is also true of Duncan Hunter. He's been there throughout, but just doesn't seem to have the desire to enter the ring and cause a ruckus that will get him some name recognition.
So, the only 3 with gloves on 2 weeks before the first vote are McCain, Huckabee, and Romney.
It makes me plumb sick to my conservative stomach.
'Kenny Boy' and Rooty are a perfect fit (no not 'that' way) (snicker). Rooty has signed up RINOs in every state. His Point Man in IL is ubber Liberal Ron Gidwitz (can't even call him a RINO). Gidwitz is best buds with - surprise - Mayor Daley of Chicago. Gidwitz ran for Gov and got trounced in the Primary with like 2%. All his ties to Daley came out and that was it for him.
This is the kind of team Rooty is putting together and this reflects on what his cabinet would look like -- AND what kind of judges he'd pick; Liberals, liberals and more liberals.
