I think we’ll see Fred start to take charge within the month. If a liberal like Rudy ends up being the GOP standard bearer, then I need to find a new party.
Then you can change your name to Hikemeister.
Rudy simply can't win the nomination. If he does we will forfeit the Presidential race the same as we forfeited the Congress last year. See I never thought the Democrats won. I know too many stalwart conservatives who simply didn't go to the polls last year thanks to the drivel foisted on Republicans by the earmark kings.
If Fred understands this and can present that with optimism, he can bring these people home. Rudy can't...no hope. With the right guy at the top, I think we can retain the White House and make quite decent progress in the Congress.
Of course, it would be nice if some of the nit wit Republicans we still have in Congress would stuff a sock in it (my personal choice for Republican nit wit of the summer is Norm Coleman of Minnesota). I s'pect others have personal favorites of other locales.

At least in that race, ditto.
