Rudy talks about his plan to reduce the size of government and increase efficiency all while saving tax payers billions of dollars.
Rudy Giuliani makes the case that John McCain is not a fiscal conservative.
MCCAIN HAS VOTED FOR HIGHER TAXES MORE THAN 50 TIMES
Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA): “We Would Have Had A Much Bigger Tax Cut If It Was Not For John McCain.†(Kathryn Jean Lopez, “A Conservative Case Against McCain,†National Review, article.nationalreview.com, 1/14/08, Accessed 1/18/08)
In His Twenty-Year Senate Career, John McCain Has Voted At Least Fifty-Two Times For Higher Taxes On The American People – That’s More Than Twice A Year.*
McCain Was One Of Only Two Republican Senators To Vote Against President Bush’s 2001 Tax Cuts And One Of Only Three Republican Senators To Vote Against President Bush’s 2003 Tax Cuts. (H.R. 1836, Senate Vote #170, Conference Report Agreed To: 58-33: R 46-2, D 12-31, 5/26/01, McCain Voted Nay; Lori Nitschke and Wendy Boudreau, “Provisions Of The Tax Law,†CQ Weekly, 6/9/01; H.R. 2, Senate Vote #179, Passed 51-49: R 48-3, D 3-45, I 0-1, 5/15/03, McCain Voted Nay; H.R. 2, Senate Vote #196, Conference Report Agreed To 51-50: R 48-3, D 2-46, I 0-1, With Vice President Cheney Casting A “Yea†Vote, 5/23/03, McCain Voted Nay)
- And McCain Questioned The “Economic Premises†Of The Bush Tax Cuts. “Nor does McCain spare the rod in rejecting Bush’s tax cuts, especially the $1.37 trillion blockbuster Bush pushed through Congress in 2001, criticizing its economic premises and its likely impact. At best, it’s a long-term economic stimulus, not the immediate boost the economy needs, McCain said. ‘All the predicates for the 2001 tax cuts and all the predictions for its results were absolutely, completely wrong,’ he said. And it will worsen the deficit before it ever helps the economy, he added.†(John Farmer, Op-Ed, “Maverick McCain Maintains A National Constituency,†Newhouse News Service, 2/24/03)
And, he is not. No way and No how…….
More here. Read it and reconsider if you are a planning to vote for John McCain.

I swear Babsy if they vote McCain as the nominee it is hello Hillary for 8 years.
Maybe if Rudy cannot win it then he can tie the nomination up for a brokered GOP convention and then the convention can select Newt Gingrich as a compromise candidate.
McCain will be an absolute disaster.

Newt Gingrich? The same Gingrich that had to resign in disgrace during Monicagate and mr. policy wonk? Same guy going around trashing Rudy? The same Newt that thinks Hillary care will work? Give me a break.
Wouldn’t vote for him for dog catcher and would never support someone who hadn’t been through the primary season to get the nod.
Gingrich likes to pontificate but when he thought about running, he quickly shoved it aside for MONEY.

Better Newt than Romney or McCain.
But, alas if it is not Rudy it WILL be Hillary for 8.
