FREEPER STOCKTRADER SAID IT BETTER THAN ANYBODY: Rudy's “campaign” will go down as one of the most inept in modern history. If he loses Florida--where he has virtually LIVED for the last few months--his campaign will have exceeded Howard Dean's when it comes to ineptitude (and Rudy didn't even have to scream. It will be the mismanagement standard.....and 'model'.....for all future "how-NOT-to-run-a-campaign" strategies. After all, how many candidates have EVER blown a lead as big as the one he had??

ROTFL----love, love, love it----that analysis has gotta go into the political history books. Man, Rooty got piped but good.

Giuliani worships at the Church of Whatever Works For Me. He has no moral center, he has no spiritual fidelity, and is completely without political loyalty. Says he's "conservative" but sucked up to liberals, sought Liberal backing, and employed numerous Liberals as Mayor/candidate. He worships abortion, gay rights, and gun grabbing----all completly against Republican principles.

Giuliani's most fervent wish is to religiously cleanse the party and dump so/cals off the party lifeboat. Rudy can get on his knees and hail Beelzebub dawn til dusk-----that ain't gonna happen.

I’d like to see anyone at the NYT write an article about Hillary with this kind of disdain. I won’t hold my breath.

[yldstrk]

Rudy puts Rudy first.

in the Panhandle, he's the consummate Yankees fan trying to look down-home on the Redneck Riviera.

Well, the Slimes had better brace itself for a few interesting letters to the editor from that region...

"Yet, the more they see of him here, the more his poll numbers tank. "

Liz, you and I were predicting this months ago!

“We’ve gotta admit the NYT came up with a great headline for this article.”

Rudy has moral problems, but I would let him find Osama and redeem himself.

The name Giuliani is not the only one that fits your description. I will be glad to see one more liberal bite the dust though.

I think Rudy's biggest problem is Rudy's ego. The fact that he could not handle loses in the early states kept him from competing there.
That killed his chances.

[NoCountryForLiberals]

I’m really curious to see how Rudy’s bet it all on Florida strategy plays out. I don’t think he’s in this race much longer.

[shrinkermd]

The NYT’s venom was in clear evidence on their opinion page today. This article just fills in the gaps. The only people that hate Giuliani more than the NYT and the MSM can be found on FR.

Take the Oath of Office in drag, wouldn’t put it past him...

FTA:

"Rudy’s campaign is in meltdown. Amazing how much voters bring up his tawdry personal life."

And, it is amazing to me how a news source can continue to bad-mouth everyone but Bill and Hill. What about THEIR tawdry personal life, NYT? (The dirt is so much deeper, there!)

[Seruzawa]

Rudy needs to switch to the Rat party. He’d fit right in.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Remember when all the rudybots flooded FR with support saying he is the only one who can beat the beast.Most of us here said that conservatives wont support him and it sure seems that we are right about that.

[pepsi_junkie]

I heard Mark Steyn put it very well the other day. To paraphrase, “Rudy told us he was the only candidate who could unite the party and win against Hillary at the national level. Then he said he wasn’t going to run in Iowa because it was a distraction, then he said he wasn’t going to campaign in New Hampshire because he wanted to focus on Florida, then he said he wasn’t going to campaign in South Carolina because it was full of the religious right, then he said he wouldn’t campaign in Nevada because it was full of Mormons. So how is he the guy who can unite the party?”

......as Michael Powell and Russ Buettner documented in a remarkable piece in the Times earlier this week, Giuliani ruled by crushing anyone who dared to cross him......

Rudy’s campaign is in meltdown. Amazing how much voters bring up his tawdry personal life. They laugh about Rudy in drag and Rudy when he lived with a gay couple.....in a state full of mothers who live for phone calls from long-distance adult children, there’s one thing they can’t abide – Rudy’s wreck of a family life......people roll their eyes over the story of how Giuliani’s third wife picked him up in a cigar bar while he was still married to the second Mrs. Hizzoner.

ATTENTION RootyTooters: I hate to say I tolja' so...

[Enterprise]

Rooty tooty fresh and frooty - ran for President and they kicked his booty.

[red flanker]

I thank God Almighty, twits like you weren't around to screech and point fingers at the moral trangressions of many of America's founding fathers and for those who would follow in their trail.
Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton and yes Giuliani (who took on the Mafia and leaded the clean up NYC) managed to acheive and accomplish where many would have failed.
All your diatribes have the impact of a flea bite on the behind of a horse's posterior in the preceding picture.

[Norman Bates]

I actually feel sorry for him. Whoever helped strategize his campaign plan really messed up.
