These are my perceptions only, but I think 2008 will be a huge year for the War on Terror, and my gut tells me Rudy could handle it.

I guess that's one of my problems with the logic of the Rudy-apologists. It's absolutely outrageous to think that Rudy is the ONLY Republican who will aggressively and successfully fight the WOT. I feel strongly that ALL the Republican candidates (save one) will handle it well.

In fact, Pres Bush is doing a pretty darn good job right now,,,and will leave in place a formidable bureaucracy to continue the that fight regardless who is elected. To insinuate that Rudy is the only Republican (or even the best one) to fight the WOT is ludicrous.

Reread my post, I never said that Rudy was the only one, just that my gut tells me he could handle it. I also said that the other two would be great Presidents, they just happen to not be my #1 choice right now.

You will be happy to know that since my state doesn't vote until a few weeks after "Super Duper Tuesday", my choice may not count anyway. I also think that looking at the demographics of the country that Rudy has a very good chance of winning the electoral college. I have not yet been convinced that Fred can pick up any states that President Bush lost in 2004, and Ohio has been leaning more and more to the left. If he can't hold those States, or pick up additional ones, we are toast. I think we have a better chance with Rudy. We may even pick up New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania. Wisconsin, and Minnesota are not out of reach either. What makes you think Fred could do that? (I truly don't know the answer, so I am not trying to be snarky)
