Some pundits have likened it to the biggest flop in a millenium.
I maintain it was his wacky strategy that did him in. As one pundit put it---his campaign was a mix of arrogance and ignorance. Rudy had a sneering contempt for the electorate----he stupidly thought they could not see through his campaign facade.
Giuliani now says he was "aware" his strategy of bypassing early primary states carried high risks. "We were defying conventional wisdom. We had no choice but to do that. I wasn't going to change my positions"........
This strategy is better known as Rudy's Kicking Conservatives to the Curb By Destroying the Repub Party Strategy. The be-all and end-all of the RINO's campign was to religiously cleanse the Repub Party and throw conservatives off the party lifeboat---based on the ignorant assumprtion that conservatives were going to rollover and play dead. That didn't happen--conservatives are the ones that defeated this unremitting liberal fraud.
------------------------------------------------------
Let's not ever, ever forget----Giuliani rigorously competed in every primary/and caucus state, spent $60 million and garnered one delegate. His so-called "withdrawal" from the race was not of his own volition---he gamely campaigned 61 days straight in Fla and finished a distant third. The more voters saw and heard this charlatan, the more his candidacy nosedived. Good riddance.
The strategy has been morphed into the"McCain's Kicking Conservatives to the Curb By Destroying the Repub Party Strategy." Unfortunately, it seems to have worked for McCain. This makes me wonder if the entire strategy all along was to first show Giuliani as unbearable, then we would accept McCain as a compromise.
