Rudy Giuliani: Supply-Sider-in-Chief

Actually, it was against Rockefeller.

The party didn't help with one thin dime. One of many betrayals of conservatives over the last seven years.

He'll need to throw on his dress first;)

"I never cease to be amazed at the absolute inability of some gun owners to think rationally about the issue. It's all emotion."

Um, you talking to me? Where have I gone emotional about the issue? Your comment is about as ad hominem as they come.

So tell me, while we're talking, what other parts of the Constitution would you be okay with Rudy ignoring? What else besides guns would you like to see "taken away from us for the greater good," to use Hillary Clinton's phrasing?

Even Marion Barry has recently shown some sanity on the topic of gun control. Where's Rudy on that issue today? And where was he yesterday? And why should I trust him on this topic?

I'm not talking "emotion" but cold hard facts based on his record. I am by no means a single-issue voter, but a candidate's stance on self-defense speaks volumes about how they'd govern.

Gun rights are a valuable indicator of a politician's place on the fascist-o-meter. And that's bad news for Giuliani, I'm truly sad to say.

News articles about Republican candidates is not spam.

And are you really so juvenile as to think your badgering is going to stop people from voting for who they want?

[MichiganConservative]

Give me a Republican who CAN beat Hillary -- other than Giuliani.

Cthulu can! Cthulu will eat your soul.

[FairOpinion]

HIllary would beat Duncan Hunter something like 80/20.

Anyone who thinks that he has any chance is totally detached from reality.

[PhiKapMom]

Thanks -- wrong candidate, right state! I remembered we talked about lack of resources.

[MichiganConservative]

Some people say Cthulu is a monster who robs people of existence by eating their souls. But he will beat the reptilesbian overlordress and that's why I support him.

Cthulu in 2008! He can win. If he doesn't he will eat your soul.

[Old_Mil]

Your shameless pandering and my badgering will, in the end, prove to be equally ineffective. What will be effective in ensuring Rudy's defeat is his extreme liberal record. Say what you want, do what you want, the man has admitted that he "Agrees with most of Clinton's policies." Republican voters aren't going to support someone like that.

Giuliani is going to be uttering some very Deanlike screams after the first few primaries.

[Old_Mil]

Cthulu has been far more forthcoming about his policy positions in the past few weeks than Rudy. I think he'll make a fine nominee, just so long as he agrees to eat my soul last.

[OMalley]

He would kick her butt all over the place!!

Dont ppl realize the reason hitlery and rudy are avoiding early debates? how can you debate someone you agree with 99.9% of the time? (by his own admission).

duncan would mop the floor with her and show her for the true socialist she is.

"What we don't see is that freedom is not a concept in which people can do anything they want, be anything they can be. Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do and how you do it." - Rudy Giuliani

[BunnySlippers]

Posting news articles about Republican candidates is not spamming or pandering.

They are no better or worse than articles about Hunter or Romney, etc.

[EternalVigilance]

The above quote could have been uttered by any fascist in history.

Is he talking about being an elected offical or being king?

"The above quote could have been uttered by any fascist in history"

And that quote is going to really really leave a mark. Ice wont soothe the swelling from that one.

[Old_Mil]

In case you didn't notice, this is a conservative website, not a Republican website. Hunter has solid conservative credentials. Romney can pretend to, in the same way Kerry pretended to be a moderate. Rudy neither holds, nor pretends to support much of the Republican platform, much less the conservative one.

One can only conclude based on this that you are not a conservative and you do not wish to see one nominated by the Republican party.

You are right. If we are to beat Hillary we need someone with name recognition. This election is not meant for "on the job" training.

It's either gonna be McCain, Rudy or Romney. We have to keep the White House in 2008. We may not be able to get back the Congress.

Are you calling Bush a liberal?
