It's simple. Rudy or Mcain are the only ones in the pack who can beat Hillary and the national media. The question is......who else in the pack can beat Hillary, and why do you think they can win? In 2008 pure ideology just won't do it. Let's face reality, it's either Rudy or McCain. I'll go with the person I can trust, Rudy.
You don't really follow national politics much, do you?
