Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani said Newt Gingrich may be the better presidential candidate than Mitt Romney, making him the latest high-profile Republican to try to add credibility to Mr. Gingrich’s surge in the polls.

“My gut tells me right now as I look at it that Gingrich might actually be the stronger candidate, because I think he can make a broader connection than Mitt Romney to those Reagan Democrats,” Mr. Giuliani said Monday night on CNN.

For all any of us may have had to say against him from time to time, we'll mostly agree Rudy's a knowledgable street fighter who beat the DemonREat Dinkins, a commnist NYC mayor who was much like the Illegal is today, a fact that gives Rudy a lot of cred when he talks about the kind of man it will take to beat the Illegal. To me, it's better than an endorsement.

Anyone but Rudy McRomney.

Since Rudy is anathema on FR, may we all now drop our support of Newt?

Boiler plate liberalism vs. professorial odysseys in alternative governance. At least Newt wont bore us to death.

Birds of a feather, as far as perversion goes... No surprise that Newt would get the Giuliani nod.

At this point, even if Putin endorsed him, I’d vote for Newt.

[Leep]

This should cinch the Republican Cross Dresser vote for the Newt!

[heiss]

priceless. One RINO to endorse another RINO.

Rudy was also Amnesty freak, though at least on the other 99 issues he was more conservative than Newt.

It is really a shame that so few saw this discorse between John Huntsman and Newt Gingrich. (two excellent minds)

Please pass this on.

Giuliani backing your choice of candidates, is sort of like your sister backing your choice for girl-friend.

Is she really convinced you picked a good woman, or is she merely happy you’re going to get what’s coming to you?

[Huck]

is the whole thing available somewhere?

[libstripper]

If Newt eliminates Romney and Perry then knocks off Newt, in my present, highly conflicted, opinion, would be the best outcome. More changes probably to come later.

[Nonstatist]

Looks like Gingrich is moving into the mainstream, endorsement wise. Interesting..

If Newt eliminates Romney and Perry then knocks off Newt

I wouldnt put that past Newt, actually.

One of the differences between Mitt and Newt is that Newt wasn’t in office when he did these things that he is being criticized for. Newt made speeches saying things that conservatives don’t like “Reagan era is over” or praising FDR or the individual mandate during the 1990’s, and he did things like the ad with Nancy Pelosi out of office. Mitt was in office when he did things that conservatives dislike. I’m not voting for either.

LOL

While Newt is better than Romney, Newt is a one-world order guy, if we look at the history.

My other post,

has the whole video at C-Span.

At 50:40, Newt begins describing how he plans on remaking islam.

IMHO, insanely continuing the Republican establishment strategy. Sounds like Americanism to keep conservative rubes happy. Opens markets for big corporations.

But our so-called conservative elites don’t realize that this ensures that islam can take root in America and keep having babies until they gain enough influence to really islamize America.

Newt thinks we’re going to secularize islam. Tame it down. “teach them about modernity”.

Woo-Hoo!

Rudy the RINO, gets it right, bucks the North-East Establishment and ruins CNN’s bash Newt fest.

Yes, I am laughing!
