“three out of four GOP voters care more about issues Giuliani can prove he’s conservative on (terrorism, taxes and education/health care) than issues he struggles with”

I agree. I like Rudy’s 12 Commitments. I remain concerned about how he will handle immigration, but I believe he will do better than Bush.

The Twelve Commitments:

I will keep America on offense in the Terrorists’ War on Us.
I will end illegal immigration, secure our borders, and identify every non-citizen in our nation.
I will restore fiscal discipline and cut wasteful Washington spending.
I will cut taxes and reform the tax code.
I will impose accountability on Washington.
I will lead America towards energy independence.
I will give Americans more control over, and access to, healthcare with affordable and portable free-market solutions.
I will increase adoptions, decrease abortions, and protect the quality of life for our children.
I will reform the legal system and appoint strict constructionist judges.
I will ensure that every community in America is prepared for terrorist attacks and natural disasters.
I will provide access to a quality education to every child in America by giving real school choice to parents.
I will expand America’s involvement in the global economy and strengthen our reputation around the world.

I notice that NONE of those commitments address the 2nd Amendment.

You may like Rudy’s 12 commitments, but there is no mention of Second Amendment rights and a commitment to that. And that bothers me. Very much. To the point where I’ll never vote for him

Rudy is a fraud.

Go look at the transcript of the debate. He dodged every question to offer up a redmeat, pre-scripted soundbite.

His 12 Commitments don’t represent what he believes (as evidenced by his record), but what some campaign adviser wrote for him so that you would drink the koolaid.

And WHY on earth would you believe Rudy would be ANY better than Bush on immigration? More koolaid, IMO.

Nothing about the Second Amendment?
