"Rudy Giuliani has shown that he is a true leader. He can and will win the nomination and the presidency. He is America's mayor, and during a period of time of great stress for this country he showed tremendous leadership," Thompson, the former Wisconsin governor, said in a statement obtained by the Associated Press.

The former New York mayor is to accept the endorsement in South Carolina later Friday."

Well Goppy, at least Rudy had the decency to ASK his affairs. Slick Willy felt his affection to be a privilege wether they wanted it or not.

"Thompson is the first former 2008 Republican presidential candidate to endorse in the race, and officials familiar with details of the political courting involved said Giuliani's top rivals also sought his support. But Thompson recently told Giuliani he'd get the nod after several weeks of conversations."

Yeah, Tommy Thompson can endorse Giuliani, and generate the kind of excitement he didn't during his own run for the Presidency.

Maybe he can get on the ticket in the number two spot and they can both go down in flames together...no, that's not another 9/11 pun; Giuliani has the copyrights to those all sewn up.

;D

AS a bona fide Christian Conservative, I'm really eager to vote for a known adulterer - especially after we spent 8 years, and $150 million tax dollors, demonizin Billy Boye Clinton fer bein a adulterer.

Aint we funny?

If you get a choice between Giuliani or Hillary, you are choosing between another Ruth Ginsberg or another John Roberts. The Supreme Court, that's an important part of this election.

I hope that there are more debates in the near future!

It helps in making the decision as to whom would be the best candidate for President.

Interesting article AG, thanks!

Do you think five cabins and ten berths will be enough? Of course, that is just to play on. We'll all live in the condos. Except for Ranchie, he'll probably need a villa for the parties...

Are you all talking about that article on HealthDecisions.org?? It says a lot of seniors are going to Mexico for their nursing care. They get a nice room with patio, 24 hour care and meals for about $550 a month. For an extra $140 they get complete medical care thrown in. You get the same package here in the states for about $5000 a month.

I am staying here with President Giuliani. Some one said yesterday we should hire illegals to build the border fence, and just as they are getting finished, shove them back across. Doesn't that sound mean? I like it.

Hey, it dont sound mean comin from a Christian Conservative!!

I dont know which part of us is more embittered and vile - the Christian in us - or the Conservative in us.

Either way - it shure feels good to hate!!

Hey, I got an idea fer some good clean Christian Conservative fun!!! Lets ridikule Al Gore fer winning that Nobel Prize!!!

Comeon! Whos up fer some good ole Christian Conservative demagogery?!

avatar
Reply

What is it about Gore that is so reprehensible?

His intellignece? Considering the leadership of the last 7 years, constructing a coherent sentence would seem to be a commendable trait.

Is it his straight laced demeanor? Considering the drug, alcohol and adultering (& deviant sexual exploits) offenses common in most politicians, some good old fashioned family values would be a breath of fresh air.

Oohh, it must be his exposure of environmental issues and the urgency of resolving global warming and the perceived hypocricy of living in a big house.

See, being a nobel laureate means that you can't be wrong about ANYTHING and you have to live a life committed to ABSOLUTES!

Anything less is un-Amerikan.

Unless you commit and stand firm with unwavering resolution to being absolutely right, well anything else is just liberal flip-floppery.

Coming from a conservative it doesn't sound mean at all abtny, it sounds normal. Anyway, I hear Mexican factories are making ten foot ladders for when that eight foot wall is finished.

avatar

Oh, well we Conservatives are smahter than that!!

After they build them 10 foot ladders, we will spend another $500 million to add another 2 feet to the wall!

See how smaht we is?

Reuters: Scooter Libby has also given his endorsement to Guliani. Scooter cited his need to further his criminal activities well into the next administration and sees the need for more commuted sentences for GOP ofiicials. He quoted,"Can't afford to lose my competitive edge."

The Republican party should not nominate Giuliani. He won't even win New York, New Jersey. He'll get whupped in the northeast, and ignored in the south.

He may be competitive in California, but he'll lose there too.

The southern conservatives will doubt him on social issues. He won't win the general.

Realistically it should be Romney or McCain, but the base hates these guys, so they can't get past the primaries.

Really, what's the difference between McCain and Thompson anyway?
