>> It’s a stupid myth believed by stupid people.......The belief that Giuliani is the only candidate who can beat Hillary.......... ranks right up there with belief in Bigfoot.


.........along with crop circles, and peace in the Middle East.......<<

I have a hard time seeing Hillary as the most threatening Democratic candidate - you don’t even see incumbent Presidents elected with 50% negatives much less first timers.

Rudy , with policies not that different from Hillary, is more dangerous because he lacks her high negatives and shares her main advantage - enormous fund raising. With everybody rejecting public financing you can’t just limp into the general - you need a giant stash.

Add in the front loaded primaries this election the money may be a bigger factor than ever before.

The problem for conservatives is that not one of the front runners who can raise that kind of money is actually gonna represent conservatives.

We need a break.

“....shares her main advantage - enormous fund raising.”

A lot of that money is Democrat money in drag.....they’re plenty nervous about hilliary and don’t see obama as a real possibility so they’re hedging their bet.......they would be quite satisfied if not happy with rudee as prez if hilliary loses

As JimRob famously posted---first Hillary's gotta get past us.
