SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Former New York City mayor and one-time GOP presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani is endorsing Meg Whitman's bid for the gubernatorial nomination in California.

In a statement released Wednesday by Whitman's campaign, Giuliani says he believes the former eBay chief executive could help re-energize the Republican party's grassroots.

Loves Van Jones, loves Barbara Boxer, pro-abortion, hangs out with Romney, endorsed by McCain and Giuliani...

Definitely a RINO.

RINO’s support RINOs. Conservatives should support Conservatives.

Guiliani should run for Governor of New York. Not because he’ll be a good Gov, but because New Yorkers deserve a dictator.

Rudy endorsed Mario Cuomo in the ‘94 NY Governor’s race. This isn’t the first leftist he has endorsed.

The 2008 presidential campaign was Whitman's first foray into politics.

Apparently she has not even bothered to vote, and has played both sides of the street when giving money. I am liking here less and less. (Let alone being a "RINO")

Your wrong !
The leftist Sac Bee peddled that story and Hugh Hewitt outed the reporter and editor on his show .
Whitman did vote in Ohio and in Calif her voting records were eliminated like all voters for the requested time period.

So why do we spread Obama state media lies on this website .

Given the alternative is Jerry Brown, she is the best the pack in CA has to offer...

"Giuliani's endorsement" is like saying, "Yes, I endorse handing California over to whatever weirdo that the Democrats choose to put forward, because I am bringing the Party to swift death before anyone can turn it around".

This is a rerun of the 2008 Presidential election -- no choice whatever, an automatic loss for the Right and win for the Liberals.

Boy did we dodge a bullet when Rudy didn’t get our nomination. I don’t think Palin would have signed on with him and we would have lost anotherr 20 House seats with a Rudy/Lieberman ticket.

We would have lost far more if McCain had been "allowed" to select Lieberman (his first choice) or Romney as his VP.

Then please explain why Whitman herself admitted that her voting record is spotty and unacceptable. Here she is, in her own words

“I was focused on raising a family, on my husband’s career, and we moved many, many times,” she told reporters. “It is no excuse. My voting record, my registration record, is unacceptable.”

Whitman had repeatedly said at the weekend convention that she should have voted more often, but declined to answer questions then about her record, instead repeating a previously released apology in which she said there were no excuses for her failure to vote.

Hugh Hewitt is a Romney supporter, so of course he’s going to try to help Meg out of this. The fact is, SHE ADMITS HER VOTING RECORD IS PATHETIC. That is not a “lefty newspaper” saying it; it’s her saying it.

I’m going with either Poizner or Campbell.

I’ve met Campbell and personally like him. I don’t agree with him on all issues, but I’m thinking he would definitely be better than Whitman.

Poizner went to University of Texas, and I’m an Aggie. UT is such a liberal school, and it makes me have concerns about him.

One liberal Pubbie endorsing another liberal Pubbie.

California is a lost cause.
