That makes sense, Jerry Ford was a RINO, may he rest in peace.

Wow. An endorsement from the grave. From one of the biggest RINOs ever.

Sorry Rudy. Jerry’s now voting Democrat in Michigan...

"Well, if they want to win, Giuliani. He's really good, he's articulate ............

I'm confused. I thought Obama was the "articulate" candidate.

If I knew nothing else about Rudy, this story would be enough to convince me that he is the last person Republicans should nominate. Has there ever been a major American politician with worse political judgment than Gerald Ford?

Ford won the nomination in 1976 telling Republicans that Ronald Reagan was too extreme. He said then that he was the only hope for keeping the White House in GOP hands.

His strategy failed then and it would fail now.

President Ford was the last pro-abortion GOP president this country had.

Let's not go back there.

Ford was 92 when he said this and yes he was a RINO, but as RINOs go he was one of the better ones. I think he tried to do a good job as prez, but the forces of treason were strongly aligned against him and the job of dealing with them was obviously bigger than he could handle.

Is anyone surprised by this? Ford was part of the old Rockefeller wing of the GOP.

This guy annoyed me when he was alive, and I still can’t get any peace from him after he’s gone.

ok. let's go over it again, so the we understand what the man said. he said, "Well, if they want to win, Giuliani. He's really good, he's articulate - he's just a leader."

He did not say that FReepers would like him. He did say that, if the GOP wants to win, Rudy has the best shot making that happen.

He did not say Rudy was the next Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan, or anyone else. He did admire Rudy's charisma.

Now, whether you like Rudy or not, he is the only candidate currently announced who is capable of defeating X42's spouse. That doesn't mean you have to like him. But it is a practical and political reality.

So, slandering Gerald Ford is juvenile way of disagreeing with his point.

Let's see, can we get a measure of Latino slander in here while we're at it?

If after the primary it was Rudy or Hitlery, we would pick the lesser of two evils and vote for Rudy.

“...last pro abortion...”

Exactly, Jules represents the NE Business/pro abortion segment of the GOP.

Folks like President Ford thought that Abortion was a great social experiment, like a new paint scheme was suddenly available for new automobiles.

They could not have been more wrong in view of the carnage that has be inflicted on Life in this country.

I never thought I would see the day were “Channeling” became a part of the discussion in the GOP.

Sheesh, now the dead guys are pushing Rudy! Give us a break!

I’m waiting for some long lost correspondence from Ronald Reagan promoting FRed as his successor, anyone got it lying around? ;-)

An opinion stated as fact.
