Wonder how long it will take the Rudy haters to start pouring out their angst on this one?
To: Old Retired Army Guy
Right now. Rudy will not be the GOP nominee. You can bank on it.

Hopefully, we’ll make a better choice than Rudy although he still stands head and shoulders above Lady MacBeth.

A win is a win, but I’m a little tired of ‘the lesser of two evils’ stuff.

Better it would be to inhale Marlboros than to fool with the proscribed substances that eventually killed or demented many of the singers and attendees in that famous field. This guy sounds like a combination Phillip Morris and Yoda. And let me also say, as one who has inhaled marlboros and marijuana, ingested LSD and psylociben mushroooms, marbs are definitely at the BOTTOM of the list. I'd take any of those other substances again before I'd ingest marlboro's addictive poison.

but Im a little tired of the lesser of two evils stuff. It's politics. It's gubmint. It is inescapably evil. The whole enterprise is a necessary evil. Get used to it.

It's a long time before I'm gonna settle for Rudy.
I expect it will be a long time before the Donks will be willing to settle on Hillary! Rodham (Clinton), as well.

Rudy will prosecute the war and cut taxes, we just need a filibuster majority in Congress to stop any other BS he might try to pull.

Ping that, he’s definitely a good speaker, a little left in leanings, but he’s a damn good administrator, tough, no nonsense, tax cutting, take no lip from the media, or anyone else, tough on crime and terrorists... type dude.

I doubt either one of them will actually run.
We’ll have two other choices. Monica Lewinsky’s boyfriend’s wife would like us to THINK she’s inevitable, but she isn’t. And her vast negatives are going to keep her out of the election.
Rudy isn’t a Republican. That’s why he won’t get the nomination. Maybe vice president; other than that, he’s not national material.
Just my opinion.

angst? Surely you jest. Those you define as "Rudy haters" are not hating, but just making sure we all know the TRUTH about Rudy the Liberal. Calling it hating is nothing but a trick from the leftist side of the isle.
And this:
It will be a bitter campaign with many interesting aspects. My favorite is this: Hillary and the 1960s left-wingers have had to shift their politics to the middle. Rudy and the 1960s right-wingers have not had to shift their politics much at all.
The author is so full of crap. Particularly using Rudy as an example - Rudy sure hasn't moved his position, because his is as much of a liberal as Hillary.
And as far as platforms are concerned - the Democrats are continuing to move LEFT. The only "center" shift is in the facade they put up around election time when they pretend to be more conservative. There is no shift in platform to the right for them. And the farther left they move, they drag the Republicans with them- thus the reason for the rising % of RINOs in the party.

I agree. I don’t think he would cave to pressure and the resistance by the Dems actually might piss him off and make it personal. Unlike Bush, whom I like, but he sure likes to get along and I for one am tired of it.

My expectations of the entire business are sufficiently low. Am I in what? I come from the Mencken school of thought. As long as I’m paying for the gubmint, I’m going to at least get my entertainment dollar’s worth for it. Voting is easier than deciding what to have for lunch. The rest is just entertainment.
