where do you see that registered republicans voted for Hillary over Lazio?

My point, which you plainly missed, is that the so-called Republican majority you claimed outside of NYC sure as hell didn't do squat in the last senate election. And you think they're going to get suddenly mobilized for Rudy when they couldn't even mobilize against Hillary? Give me a break.

see the map. the NYC counties that put Hillary over the top, those are the NYC counties that elected Rudy mayor twice. Even if Hillary won NYC as a 2008 presidential candidate, the margin of her victory there would be far less then it was in her Senate race - not enough to win her the state. The Dems have no way to win the presidency without winning new york state, toss NJ and Conn into the mix too.

He's pro-life

And I note that you have no objection to his being anti-Second Amendment. Very telling, that.

On McCain's "pro-life" record, you need to stop drinking the Kool-Aid and pick up the facts, boy.

So you admit that Rudy's running will not assure that New York's Electoral Votes will go to the Republican side. That's been my point all along.

.S. Sen. Norm Coleman said Tuesday that he supports a "clear, focused, narrowly drawn" amendment to bar gay marriages.

http://christianparty.net/abortionelection.htm

In Minnesota, Republican Norm Coleman, who issued a pro-life challenge to Democrat Walter Mondale in Monday’s debate, won the Senate seat formerly held by the late Paul Wellstone (D), who died two weeks ago in a plane crash. In his acceptance speech on Wednesday, Coleman said his first priority was to “build strong families.”

http://www.gunsnet.net/forums/archive/index.php/t-84375.html

-- Bankrolled by the extremist gun lobby. Coleman's extreme views on guns have been rewarded with the maximum direct contribution allowed.
-- Has publicly stated his opposition to any new gun safety legislation including; reauthorizing the Assault Weapons Ban, requiring background checks at gun shows, and anti-trafficking measures such as limiting gun buyers to one handgun per month.
-- Supports legislation that would force police to allow almost anyone to carry hidden handguns in public places, like churches,
schools, and recreational centers.

NYC is the city. even if he split the vote against Hillary in NYC, the rest of NY State voted for Lazio - no way Hillary wins NY State against Rudy with that math. Bush himself is running in a dead heat in NJ, Rudy would also take NJ. so where do the Dems go to make that up? will Missouri vote for Hillary? Texas? North Carolina or Virginia?

They have no intention of running Jeb.

They are going to be running another relative of the Bush family.

This is who they are going to run for President. Bet the rent.

President Bush's nephew George P. Bush, the son of Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, speaks Friday at a Mexico City press conference.

That hasn't stopped Republican and Democratic organizers from trying to get out the vote this year in Mexico, with both parties launching registration drives.

George P. Bush plans to meet with business leaders in Mexico City and later travel to large American communities in and around Guadalajara and San Miguel de Allende.

Bet the rent?
LOL!
I think George P is a bit young.
Which year shall I bet the rent?

Will he run for a governorship before running for POTUS?
Pray tell, which state?
Florida?

I don't want a Bush dynasty either. Zell Miller for 2008 President.

I'd rather have Tancredo in 2008.

I like Tancredo and I hope he keeps doing everything he's doing about our Invader problem.

But, he's never going to be President. The RNC will block him from becoming anything more than what he is. He's a patriotic Congressman willing to trade away any political future he might have had in order to fulfil his sworn duty to his constituants. There aren't many like him.

Jeb always says that he loves Florida. You never know though. Maybe he would be interested in a cabinet post or something else in 2008.

He's putting all on the line to help save the life of Terri Schindler-Schiavo and maybe he's able to stick his neck out for her because it's not a risk for him to do so. www.terrisfight.org

This woman would be dead a year already if Jeb and the Florida Legislature had not stepped in last year and stopped her starvation and activist judges who are still fighting him on Terri's Law.

Nevermind that he was about _this close_ to being Kerry's running mate.

Are all your posts that inaccurate?

Bullcrap. McCain has spent more time defending Kerry than he has Bush.

Is there some particular reason you're out and out lying on this thread?

No. I never pay attention to people who obviously don't have any facts to back up their posts.
