How was he in a different class?????? Seriously.
Sorry, I have yet to see any social liberal stand for anything once in Washington....They are the problem with our party.....they are the Rinos. A total wast of a vote.
Guilliani belongs in NY. He is a shining star there and should have run for Governor. Just as Romney needed to stay in Massachusetts and Christi needs to stay in NJ. The rest of the US republicans can not stomach them representing them.
The South and Mid West will not vote for a liberal North Eastern Republican, they stay home when liberals run....just look at our voting history if you ever want this party to win. GIVE THEM SOMEONE TO VOTE FOR FOR ONCE. Someone please get smart enough to figure our base out it is not like it is very hard to figure out who wins and who loses historically.
Rudy was socially liberal because that was the only way he could have gotten elected in NYC.
I think he would have been less liberal as POTUS because there would have been more pressure on him to govern conservatively.
The ones who choose the candidates don't answer to the base, so there's no need for them to have to discern what the base wants.
