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

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

That would be nice, but it's likely hers all the way.

[AdvisorB]

"I'd say you're smoking crack."


LOL!

[onyx]

It's a possibility.

[period end of story]

If he wears the others down with his common sense approach, in the end, he may surprise a few people.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

No conservative is going to support McCain. Even I won't and I'm a Rudy supporter. Keep dreaming pal.

[Bigg Red]

How about Hunter?

..name recognition probably controls these early polls IMHO...

[narses]

McLame has a near perfect ACU rating and a perfect pro-life score. I'd hate it, but unlike Rudy, I'd hold my nose and vote for John.

[AdvisorB]

Triple E, if it's between McCain and hitlary, I'm holding my nose, and holding my breath, and I'm pulling the lever for McCain. I may have to drink some Pepto-Bismol when I get home, as well as take a shower, but I'm am going to do anything it takes to keep this monsterous mountebank out of the Oval Office.

[somemoreequalthanothers]

I would vote for McCain if absolutely necessary, but I don't think it's going to come to that.

[Mojave]

I'm hoping for a McCain-Giuliani ticket.

Giuliani met for about an hour Friday night with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who urged Giuliani to help bring about a national debate on the country's dependence on fossil fuels and on health care.

Giuliani elaborated on gun control and immigration during a news conference. He said his policies in New York to get handguns off the street helped reduce crime.

...sampled voters of all political stripes, not just Republicans...

[jim35]

"I'm hoping for a McCain-Giuliani ticket."

Maybe we can get a Clinton/McCain, or Clinton/Giuliani Republican ticket. After all, they're all about the same, politically. The big difference of course, is that Clinton doesn't pretend to be a Republican.

[epow]

If forced to choose between the 3 I would pick Romney as the least objectionable. But I don't really want any of those 3, and I absolutely will not vote for Giuliani in either the primary or in the general election if he's nominated.

After doing some research, Duncan Hunter would be my first choice at this stage of the game, but I don't think he has enough name recognition to get anywhere. So far Giuliani is polling well but I'm hoping that as the race progresses his true liberal RINO colors will come out, and hopefully there are enough social conservative Republicans to take him out before the primary season is over.

[Mojave]

That's a powerful chart.

[onyx]

No conservative is going to support McCain.

Unwise to say "no" as in none; ditto for "all."

This conservative will support McCain if he's the GOP nominee.

[TomGuy]

Obama is way too white for the average black!

There are 2 elements that would work for Obama: white guilt with regard to race and white guilt with regard to Muslims.

Both do exist and exist in large numbers with the left-of-center crowd.

[jim35]

Agreed. I'll vote against Hitlery, even if it's a despicable RINO who's running against her. Please, may it never come to that.

[narses]

Indeed. It is appearing on blogs all over now.
