Thanks for the post. I was thinking about looking that up myself since it was mentioned in one of the SC videos. :-)

this campaing is becoming very interesting indeed. Finally, an alternative to the droning dweebs and “all Hillary all the time.”

As the power of The Fred reverberates around the globe......

They praised each other's policy positions on the war on terror, raising the prospect of a McCain-Giuliani or Giuliani-McCain ticket emerging from the Republican race as the nomination process unfolds.

This is the scariest prospect if McCain and Giuliani can remain competitive throughout the race to a brokered convention. Much worse than my current prediction of a McCain-Huckabee alliance, because Huckabee would certainly throw his delegates to McCain-Giuliani rather than Thompson-Romney, since he has particular animosity towards Romney, and after last night, Fred Thompson now too.

The one silver lining to a threatened McCain-Giuliani alliance is that McCain would not accept the VP spot, and Giuliani would probably make the calculation that the GOP is going to lose '08 and he would be in a much better position to make a clean comeback in 2012, rather than dooming his chances for the nomination with a failed VP run as John Edwards did to his chances on the Democrat side. For that reason I do not think we will see a McCain-Giuliani ticket, however that doesn't mean Rudy won't side with McCain if he's put in the position of kingmaker at the GOP convention.

Stating the facts of an opponent’s record is a “TIRADE”? OZ journalism is as bad as its US counterpart.

“Sleeping bear returns to ‘maul’ Huckabee”

“Maul”, thats about how I would describe Fred’s Bronx style beatdown on Huckafraud this week!
