Giuliani Seen as More Likeable Candidate in U.S.

Angus Reid Global Monitor ^ | March 18, 2007 | Angus Reid Global Monitor

[FairOpinion]

Republican Rudy Giuliani is the most appealing presidential contender in the United States, according to a poll by Rasmussen Reports. 31 per cent of respondents say they will definitely vote for the former New York City mayor if he runs for president in 2008.

Democratic New York senator Hillary Rodham Clinton is a close second with 30 per cent, followed by Democratic Illinois senator Barack Obama with 28 per cent, Republican Arizona senator John McCain with 21 per cent, and Democratic former North Carolina senator John Edwards with 20 per cent.

When asked which candidate they would definitely not support in the 2008 presidential ballot, 46 per cent of respondents mention Rodham Clinton. Edwards is second on the list with 39 per cent, followed by Obama with 37 per cent, McCain with 34 per cent, and Giuliani with 28 per cent.

Versus the claim that "Nobody pays it any mind.", it is cool. Thanks.

[Halgr]

Sigh....even Freepers is subject to Rudybot spam....

The Republican Party will push its conservative and christian base away if rudy wins....

Is this Rudybot stuff a tactic to destroy the good candidates like Duncan or Fred????

[Halgr]

I think some people are on the Rudy payroll.....

[narses]

Thanks. It is a CONSERVATIVE website, after all.

Back to the spam thing I went and read the guide lines. This is what it says.

"Don't spam - Post your message once. If you are not sure if it has posted, check the latest posts page.

Now seems to me that would be one time per thread. Each time a new thread is started you could post your opinion. If one's opinion or facts have not changed then it might look like spam to you, but not to me or vice versa.

I can't be sure of course, but it looks like the intent was to keep repeating the same thing over and over on the same thread. That would be unwanted and meet the definition of spam as I understand it.

the democraps will win the presidency in 2008 because:

1. of the animus that bush has built up, amplified by the democrap media,

2. and conservatives will rebel against any moderate republican candidate.

[Halgr]

But....beatimg Hillary ISN'T all that matters....not when you sell out the party to a liberal.

[Halgr]

I fear you are correct.

Well, that is because you can read. Sadly liberals have trouble with basic stuff like that.

[Spyder]

There has got to be a better conservative out there. And HERE he is!

[Sunsong]

That was good of you check. That is how I understood it.

"Don't spam - Post your message once. If you are not sure if it has posted, check the latest posts page.

To me that means - don't post the same exact thing over and over on the same thread.

And it is obvious, I think, if you are spamming - you are not trying to discuss anything - just interject yourself or play the adolescent.

Everyone knows, hopefully, that Rudy is NOT a social conservative. LOL

[M. Thatcher]

I think some people are on the Rudy payroll.....

Yeah, that must be the explanation. And every American polled for Giuliani is on the payroll, too. Because it couldn't possibly be that people actually support Giuliani. Nope, they're all paid treasonous liberal stooges.

LOL - Sometimes there are posts that are truly paranoid. I wonder what kind of state of mind the person lives in?

"I believe Dog Gone was referring to spam, not threads. I merely suggested that if the title of the thread does not interest you, or offends you, do not join in the discussion. It's that simple."

No, it isn't that simple, just because *you* say so. You are not a moderator here last I heard, so no need to advise me to go away--it ain't gonna happen. And, if that bothers you--well, maybe you ought to take your own advice.

Repeated threads about promoting the same RINO candidate here is spam regardless whether you agree with it or not. It is unwanted propaganda that the *majority* of us here on FR don't appreciate. That is the very definition of spam, getting the same irratating, unwanted, garbage posted here on FR day after day.

"P.S. I did not call you a name, yet you, without knowing me from a hole in the wall, called me a "liberal loonie." I believe that no name-calling is listed in the FR rules."

Ooooooh, so now you're elevating yourself up to be Saint Miss Didi are you? You told me basically to get lost in your previous thread, and now you're whining about me calling you a name. Well, since I hurt your poor little sensitive feelings I'll take back calling you a loonie. We'll just call you what you are: a liberal who likes to come to FR to promote RINO candidates. Is that better now?

[Miss Didi]

Good one, M. Thatcher. By the way, do you know if they do direct deposit because all this check-cashing is a drag.

[M. Thatcher]

Yes, mine goes into a slush fund, direct from the Giuliani campaign headquarters. I get $50,000 per pro-Rudy post, don't you?

[Sunsong]

see post # 105. Your liberal attempt to define spam as you want it defined is not policy here.

And your name calling and repeated attempts to create ill-will are duly noted. Are you that freaked out that there are conservatives who just don't agree with you?

[Torie]

What "RINO" candidates should not have any "positive" news developments posted about them? Do you have a list?

[Spyder]

There has got to be a better conservative out there.

Oops - screwed up the link.

HERE HE IS!

Too bad he's dead...

[Elyse]

Good grief, what an ignorant poll. How many ways can we contort things to push Guiliani ahead in the most favorable light?
