We are also faced with the following phenomena - as of today, December 1, 2006 - the three Presidential contenders on the Republican side with most visibility are McCain, Romney and Giuliani. McCain is bonkers, Romney's got some terrible negative numbers becuase of being Mormon (why, I haven't a clue) - that leaves Giuliani.
As such, I see no point in getting into a rabid hate session against the man. He may be the bulwark of civilisation against the desolation that Hillary represents. Think carefully about what a disaster she would be not just for America but for the world. Then choose.

the Dem strategy is simple - let the "litmus test" conservative wing of the party, who cannot elect anyone on their own, wipe out all of the known candidates early, leaving us limping into the primaries with a bunch of candidates no one has ever heard of.
add to the above, force President Bush to "stay the course" in iraq - if we spend the next 2 years in iraq doing exactly the same thing we have done the last two years - same outcomes, same results, same 50-100KIA every month, same speech every few months that iraqi forces are "just 12 months away from being ready" - the Dem landslide in 2008 will be legendary.
You're entitled to your opinion. I don't agree with you. Giuliani is not the answer. At least not for conservatives like myself.

First off, I don't hate Rudy. I hate liberalism and Rudy personifies what the liberal agenda is all about. Its absurd to think that Rudy offers some great opposition to Hillary on policy issues. That's quite silly. I will choose neither. Thanks, but no thanks on Rudy for Prez.
