This coming from a supporter of POS pro-abortionist Rudy.

bwahahahah!

Well, no, not exactly a supporter but hey, I guess all's fair, and that includes putting words in people's mouths.

But omitted is the constant theme of my posts about the people who are supposed to beat hillary...who are they? People the world didn't know last year?

Ain't gonna happen, chief.

You mean Obama of course because Fred is stepping to the top. He’s running as a conservative and reforming Social Security is mother’s milk to consevatives.

Be patient...Fred will start his slow steady rise in the polls as more and more people learn about his plans and that the other have no plans.

This is a good proposal. This is sound thinking.

Still a nobody.

So was billy boy in 92. Fred just needs to get the GOP nod then he will get the needed fame. The beast will make mincemeat out of Rudy, Fred will make mincemeat out of the beast. Its that simple. Fred is not only the best candidate but is our best chance at defeating the Countess of Cackle.

Yeah. never was elected to any office.
Never was an actor.

Neither was Reagan. - Oh, wait a minute ...

But the wife of an impeached ex president, now there’s somebody. Sheez, give it a rest, will you?

Rudy was nobody to anyone outside of NYC, until he became the ex politician that was the first person to ever lose to Hillary.

On the other hand, most of them will probably recall the beating George Bush took after he won re-election for offering a mix of privatization and benefit recalculation.

That's because George Bush is a remarkably poor communicator who can barely string together a coherent sentence. Get somebody who knows how to effectively communicate to the public and it may be a different matter entirely.

There must be a lot of slow or just plain dumb people if they don’t know about Fred at this stage.
