Breaking News: Rudy Giuliani hints at dropping out
LA Times ^ | 28 January 2008 | Andrew Malcolm

Rudy Giuliani appears to be pondering an end to his long pursuit of the Republican presidential nomination.

In a meeting in the back of his chartered plane en route to St. Petersburg, Fla., a short while ago, the onetime, longtime GOP front-runner told a small group of reporters, including The Times' Louise Roug: "The winner of Florida will win the nomination."

The fact that Romney hasn’t been examined as long as Giulani is true, regardless of the fact that I would cast an anti-Mormon vote.

Romney had 150 people yesterday in Clearwater — the seat of the Church of Scientology in florida and who is doing GOTV for Romney —

You're saying the Scientologists are getting out the vote for Romney in Florida? Do you have a link or two for that?

That Romney hasn’t been examined as long or as indepth as Rudy is true regardless of whether Danny is going to cast an anti-Mormon vote.

The real problem you face is how many others are out there like me, who won’t give you a heads up until election day.

It was early, about 6:30am CST. It caught my attention cause last I'd seen Guiliani was well behind McCain and Romney.

Maybe they hadn't had their coffe either? lol

The only candidate who can beat Hillary might drop out? Well, now we have a new only candidate who can beat Hillary, John McCain.

Romney has always been the best candidate.

Paul’s a nut and Keyes just can’t get any “respect”.

I didn't say it was untrue, I said that your opinion should be disregarded because you have a wish for this candidate to fail which has absolutely nothing to do with his positions or qualifications.

The real problem you face is how many others are out there like me, who won’t give you a heads up until election day.

I think you're projecting your own bigotry (and yes, it is bigotry because you're willing to harm your country in order to exercise it) onto the rest of the country. But if you're right, and there are a significant number of people who will vote for a baby-killing Marxist so that we don't have a Mormon in the White House, it won't matter much to me, because that would mean the Republic is pretty much done.

It’s far less absurd than everybody suddenly calling Mitt Romney a conservative. History didn’t begin with Romney’s presidential campaign.

I agree Mitt ain't Reagan, which is why I said feel free to call him a RINO. But yes, it is quite absurd to call McCain a conservative.

McCain-Feingold.

McCain-Kennedy.

McCain-Lieberman.

He is not a conservative. Call him your favorite RINO if you like, but calling him a conservative is no more accurate than calling him a ham sandwich.

Good because we don’t want... for the presidency at least. That said, he’d make a fabulous head of homeland security.

An LA Times hit job, or the end of the road for Rudy?

An admission that the US elections are rigged...

The same crowd that pushed Julie-Annie early rigged the vote for McCain... Soros...

No, I don't. But I still won't legitimize a false religion by electing a Mormon. And Mormons don't have any more principles than the rest of us. Just look at Romney's flipflops. Utah's crime rate is about average despite a very high number of Mormons.
