Sorry, but this article is BS.

We're gonna have a wicked hard time winning in 2008 unless we're facing Hillary. And even then it'd be damn hard against Clinton-Richardson driving massive black and Hispanic turnout. THE PRESIDENCY IS NOT EASY PICKINS.

MOST importantly, we need a strong candidate, which is no guarantee. What if we get Rudy, and lose the pro-life vote and turnout? We'd be screwed. What if we nominate a Bob Dole type, or a twerp like Hagel? Possibly screwed.

Rudy is way too liberal. Pro-abort, pro-homo. He'd never get the Religious right vote. He's good as a NY Republican, but he'd never win the national election. That's why he should take Hillary's Senate seat instead. Kick her out of the political realm in 2006.
