"it's the supply-sider versus the Marxist-Leninist "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need."



BINGO! The choice for any REAL conservative should be obvious.

Tancredo and Paul have nothing but talk,...

They wouldn't have their Congressional records or anything, righ? They don't call Paul "Dr. No" for no reason.

"Tancredo and Paul have nothing but talk...."

Bull. They both have long, proven voting records of fiscal conservatism. Tancredo and Paul were two of only ten or eleven members of the house of representatives (435 members in total) who stood up against excessive spending in after Katrina. Both voted against the medicare prescription drug deal. Both have all kinds of "friends of the taxpayer" awards and top rating from just about every fiscal conservative group out there.

Yes, I detest Rudy McRomney too. Democrats with R's by their names.

[IslandJeff]

Would you please STOP? Do you take PayPal?

FGS.

[MichiganConservative]

Democrats with R's by their names.

Don't you get it? The Free Republic code is:

R = good. D = baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.

Please get with the program.

If Rudy was merely neutral on the social issues, then I would not have much of a problem with his candidacy for the nomination.

Rudy seems ready and willing to use whatever lever his has at his disposal to solve a problem, and that seems to threaten some core issues for me at least.

BINGO! The choice for any REAL conservative should be obvious.

Yes, and it's obviously not the beneficiary of this stupid puff piece. I have no idea why Terry Jeffrey allowed this in Human Events. Maybe finally after all these years, Beltway Fever has infected even him. Damned shame.

Liberals are liberals, no matter what letter happens to be by their name.

[ClarenceThomasfan]

Hillary's trolls are at it again. I swear they stalk these boards just waiting for the Rudy threads to pop up. No life.

[narses]

In your world principles are for sale. Not in mine.

"Most of Clinton's policies are very similar to most of mine." - Rudy Giuliani

[rockinqsranch]

We (Mr. and Mrs. RQSR) had a negative premonition of Schwarzenegger, but we had Gray Davis in California. Something had to be done (vote for change) and it was done holding our noses and praying for the best. It didn't happen. Siiiiiiiiiiigh

Now along comes Giuliani as favored Republican nominee and that same negative premonition we had is back as more and more jump on the Rudy bandwagon.

Where Schwarzenegger married into a family of Leftist baggage, Rudy has accomplished it all on his own.

As we stated in another post, Rudy is a "Niche" kinda guy, as Mayor of NYC he was OK, quite successful by all indications, but we cannot see him as President of the United States of America.

[NapkinUser]

Giuliani=Lieberman. They're so similar it's beyond belief. I wonder how many people here like Lieberman back in 2000. Probably none. Somewhere between 2000 and now the republican party moved further to the left.

[Darkwolf377]

Rudy has a record as NY Mayor. Tancredo and Paul have nothing but talk

Not exactly; Tancredo has his one issue, and Paul is swiftly becoming the left's favorite Administration basher.

[EternalVigilance]

As to your tagline, that's quite a gift you want to give Hillary. She'll love to see the GOP come apart if one of those liberals is nominated.

(The Republicans will unite in 2008 around (Guiliani, Romney, McCain or Rice)-take that Hillary!)

[Beagle8U]

Did Rudi ever declare a party on his papers he filed?

I still think he plans to run third party once its obvious he has no chance of winning the nomination.

[MichiganConservative]

Hillary wouldn't be so bad if she just had an R next to her name. Most of the people around this forum wouldn't be so mean to her if she just had an R. Some extremists would probably still call her a liberal or some other slur popular among ultra-right-wingers, but most would understand she's good now.

[FairOpinion]

Schwarzenegger vetoed many of the socialist bills the Dem Legislature passed, people keep ignoring that -- bills that a Dem governor would have signed, everything from government run REAL socialist healthcare, to drivers licences to illegals, to marriage for homosexuals, tax increases and the list goes on.

[EternalVigilance]

He should just put a D there and be honest.
