Thank you.
You’re quite welcome. Best wishes.
The poll serves to push the idea that only RINOs can compete against Obama. We saw in 2008 what happens when RINOs go up against Obama.
I’m surprised there are that many members of the Sheeple who even remember who Giuliani is.
Polls are designed to influence not inform. If they plan to steal an election all they have to do, is have many polls showing the results they planned for. Bingo their poll was right on the money.
FR has never gotten over the purge. Traffic collapsed after that. And the result was McCain.
No it says it is an interactive poll, which means it is BS, anyone can vote as many times as they wish.
One of the comments at the original article:
Eric,
It’s odd that you’d compare Trump to Giuliani. I did so the other day myself.
They’re peas in a pod — corrupt and incompetent government careerists whose only selling point is their ability to self-promote.
The only real differences are that Giuliani opted for direct government employment rather than the corporate welfare queen route, and that his incompetence and corruption therefore has probably cost more in American lives than Trump’s has.
When Giuliani came in as mayor, one of the top recommendations in the wake of the 1993 WTC attack was to get the police and fire departments on the same comm gear. The gear was available, but the bribery process ran so slowly that it hadn’t been purchased by 9/11/01, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of NYPD officers who didn’t get the word to clear the buildings.
Also in response to the 1993 WTC attack, it was determined that New York needed an emergency response HQ. The experts recommended siting it in Brooklyn. Giuliani thought it was smarter to put it under the World Trade Center, which resulted in he and other city functionaries spending three hours trying to crawl out of the wreckage instead of being available to coordinate the response.
Then he turned down $10 million in 9/11 relief funding because the guy who offered it had made a common-sense observation as to the circumstances which brought 9/11 about.
And afterward? Giuliani avoids public appearances in NYC to this day, because whenever he makes them, the post-9/11 cleanup workers he fucked over and exposed to lung damage by lying about the air quality and refusing respirators, etc. — those who remain alive, anyway — show up to tell everyone what a rotten son of a bitch he is.
When he gets on the national stage, if his greasy medicine show carnival routine isn’t enough to turn people off, his opponents can always bring up the fact that his closest associate is in jail for corruption in the office Giuliani appointed him to, and that since leaving the mayor’s office, Giuliani has chosen to work as a lobbyist for such savory characters as Hugo Chavez.
He’s about as likely to win the GOP nomination, let alone the presidency, as Jacobite pretender Francis II is to move into Buckingham Palace.
Thanks, I didn’t know that. That must be why Giuliani won.
>>>Palin is at the top of the ticket. Cant think who should be second banana. It should be someone even more conservative and ballsy than Palin, so the demonrats wont have an incentive to assassinate her.<<<
Palin-Bachmann.
Or, conversely, Palin-Cain, although the sad news is that some people might think it’s the same guy who ran in 2008.
Palin-Murray. Just to see the heads explode over at NPR, like Nomad in that old “Star Trek” episode over the cognitive dissonance of smearing a woman and a dark-skinned minority. This one might be the best, actually, although the more I keep hearing Michele Backmann, the more she impresses me. You should see her biography - it’s pretty solid. However, presidential tickets are often about balancing politics, and Murray brings in the South.
Hell, Bachmann-Murray sounds good, too.
As long as I don’t have to vote for another RINO. The last time it took several weeks to get the stink out of my conscience.
