The perfect fiscal conservative ticket? It may be the only GOP ticket that could with NY, FL and NY. Rudy Giuliani says Governor Palin is an exciting political figure and her abilities as very good Governor demonstrate she has the experience to be president. Øbama, on the other hand, has preformed much, much worse then ever expect. Rudy also discusses Øbama "Birth Certificate" but incorrectly claims he has seen it as the only document that has been release is a forged "Certificate of live Birth."

April 19, 2006 -- BLUE BELL, Pa. - Rudy Giuliani took a few swipes at Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton yesterday while campaigning for a Republican senator. In a speech on behalf of Sen. Rick Santorum, Giuliani recalled that for most of his mayoralty, there was one Republican and one Democratic senator representing New York. MO< "[For] one year, I had Hillary," he mock-complained, drawing laughter. After a pause, he continued: "There's that book that just came out . . .

--SNIP-- So does Rudy really have a chance to be nominated by his party? I don't think so. Why? It has to do with an image of Rudy with which voters "out there" are unfamiliar - and which is sure to raise a lot of eyebrows in the GOP heartland.

Don't doubt for a minute that...

While Rudy Giuliani is known as "America's Mayor" for his leadership in the weeks following September 11, what has been overshadowed is how he brought accountability and competency to New York's dysfunctional city government during the prior seven years. The best known turnaround story of the Giuliani era is the 65% plunge in serious crime. By restructuring the NYPD and focusing its resources on the neighborhoods that needed them the most via the famous Compstat system, the poorest neighborhoods saw the greatest reduction in crime and improvement in quality of life. 'snip' Rudy could be considered the original "compassionate conservative"...

One of the liberal favorites for this treatment is Rudy Giuliani who, when actually in office, constantly bedeviled the left. Up until 9/11, he was portrayed as a bull-headed, dictatorial, tin god who was insensitive to minorities and in general, a detestable bully. Sure, he’s a pro-abortion, gun-grabbing, gay rights advocate, but what good was that when he was merely a mayor? Now that they see him as a national figure, he is the epitome of all that secular liberals love; a divorced Catholic at odds with the Church over some of its most sacred public stances. But despite the...
