We got Bush as the nominee in 2000 because he was the "anointed one." He was selected by the PTB (whoever the hell they are) and proclaimed “frontrunner” and de facto nominee by the media and all pundits before anyone else could even get out of the starting gates. He was ramrodded through over the objections from the grassroots. Kind similar to what’s going on now, but it’s even starting earlier.

Same thing with Dole in '96.

Yup.

Rudy is a flawed character that the MSM will ignore until the home stretch. Rudy will think things are a cake walk. Then they will attack him without mercy in the final weeks before the election. Rudy will not know what hit him. The conservative electorate will be so turned off, they will not go to the polls. The grass roots, the legs of the campaign, will not man the telephone banks, walk the precincts, or wave the signs. Any effort to rehabilitate the campaign by going to the airwaves will be a futile waste of money. Rudy will go down in flames and the DemonRATs know it. They know just the tactics to take him down.
