There is a faction of the party that seems unwilling to accept McCain. It might be able to stop him.
-
But, they will turn on McCain when the Clinton Cabal goes to work……
-
Is Rudy running for VP or positioning himself for a life after the race?
-
The media loves John McCain – wait until Clinton disposes of Obama then……
-
Mitt Romney is out of touch and too slick by half…..
-
Rudy had better win Florida, because he’s gonna need the momentum…If Rudy does not finish well in Florida, McCain may be the inevitable candidate.
-
Will it be sufficient to win over Florida voters?
-
Have the Democrats already started in on McCain?
-
The Democrats really do not wish to run against Rudy. This piece smells like the crap bias that it is.
-
It would be difficult for Romney to reunite the party should he win the nomination. Nasty Mitt……
-
Do the Florida pollls accurately measure a Giuliani decline? We will see on Tuesday.
-
Gee, is Rudy winning over the New York Times? A neutral piece. They must be hitting him over the weekend.

Mitt Romney’s Who Let the Dogs Out – A Macaca Moment?

Mitt Romney in Jacksonville, Florida
Ana Marie Cox asks why this apparent “Macaca Moment” by Mitt Romney is not receiving more play?
Ambinder is more kind and calls it embarassing.
But, the fact is Mitt Romney is a rich white Republican guy who is grossly out of touch – especially on MLK Day.
It won’t have to be used by the Democrats – it is already out there.

John McCain Has a Senior Moment
Senator John McCain seems to have trouble remembering Vladimir Putin is the President of Russia NOT Germany.
A senior moment?
McCain did not have any trouble remembering to BOMB IRAN.

Rudy Giuliani on a National Catastrophe Fund

Rudy Giuliani’s latest web ad “Some”
If Florida and California voters are listening (Hurricanes and Earthquakes) this will resonate with them. John McCain opposes such a fund and Mitt Romney is, well, undecided.
Rudy’s proposal will play well in the Midwest where tornadoes rule the day.
Will Florida voters take notice and vote their pocket books next Tuesday?

The AP Lies about “Bush Lied and People Died”
Chairman of the Soros Fund Management, USA, George Soros, pauses before speaking during a seminar at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Wednesday Jan. 23, 2008.
Flap woke up to this NEWS (?) story this morning on Early Today on NBC. Why, of course President George Bush LIED over hundreds of times to lead the USA into the Iraq War. What a load of crap. There was no context, no background and no journalism.
NBC simply reported what the Associated Press and New York Times handed them.
The AP screams: Study: False statements preceded war
A study by two nonprofit journalism organizations found that President Bush and top administration officials issued hundreds of false statements about the national security threat from Iraq in the two years following the 2001 terrorist attacks.
The study concluded that the statements “were part of an orchestrated campaign that effectively galvanized public opinion and, in the process, led the nation to war under decidedly false pretenses.”
The study was posted Tuesday on the Web site of the Center for Public Integrity, which worked with the Fund for Independence in Journalism.
Hummmmm a George Soros sponsored and funded anti-war study with an agenda.
Whatever the motivation, it’s clear that the reporter, Douglas K. Daniel, paid no attention to the man behind the curtain. The Center for Public Integrity is one of many George Soros fronts. Soros pays the bills and his minions, whether they happen to work at the CPI or the Center for American Progress or Media Matters or wherever, dance to his tune. And Soros has made it his life’s work to bring down the Bush administration. He says it’s the “central focus of my life.†Do you think people paid to to “research†by a man with that stated mission are likely to deliver unbiased findings?
More crap journalism, if you can call this journalism from the Associated Press.
The RIGHT Blogosphere rips into the BIAS:

Is John McCain the Inevitable GOP Nominee?
With Rudy Giuliani’s fade, blatant unwillingness to attack John McCain, with Fred Thompson’s withdrawal, with Mike Huckabee’s broke campaign leaving Florida and with Mitt Romney’s failure to catch on after spending gazillions of his own bucks, is John McCain the ONLY one left standing?Is John McCain, the inevitable GOP nominee?
Yes and no.
Conservatives will NEVER work for McCain and Flap doubts that once the Clinton Cabal and Democrat media machine start to work on McCain his sudden resurgent media popularity will melt as fast as ice cream in the August California heat.
It is conceivable that the other candidates could win sufficient number of delegates to deny him the nomination until the convention. For example, Rudy and Romney could win sufficient Congressional Districts in California to split the convention delegation. Likewise, Rudy could come back and win New York and New Jersey – maybe Florida as well. Huckabee might win some southern states like Georgia.
GOP voters, however, will soon realize that McCain is a 71 year old Bob Dole while Hillary rides her gender card all of the way to the White House.
Will there be a September GOP convention uprising should McCain win a plurality but not a majority of delegates? And, who would be a compromise candidate?
Or will the GOP be simply acquiescent in riding the old horse to collapse?

Rudy Giuliani on The Economy
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgPZ02smbNw&eurl=http://www.google.com/reader/view/?tab=wy[/youtube]
Mayor Rudy Giuliani sat down with Fox News’ Neil Cavuto and talked about his plan to jumpstart the American economy. He is the only Republican with a comprehensive plan to stimulate the market and get people back to work by implementing the largest tax cut in American history
MAYOR GIULIANI: “I think the Federal Reserve has to have the independence to assess these things. And generally they’ve been correct and I have no reason to criticize it. I think they’re looking at what we’re all looking at. And monetary policy is important to this. I put more of the focus on fiscal policy, though. I think the government is going to have to do something pretty strong here. I think a very strong stimulus package is necessary. And, to me, a strong stimulus package is heavy on the permanent part. And that’s why I put out last week — we have talked about it — the largest tax reduction in American history. The idea of that was to say to the markets: You’re going to be looking at an America that’s a good investment. You’re going to be looking at an America that has growth. You’re going to be looking at an America that’s going to allow you a little bit more range of profit and a little bit more range of seeing expansion. So I would put heavy emphasis on cutting the corporate tax, cutting the capital gains tax, keeping the tax on the dividends low — the things that are very competitive between countries where money moves one place or another.â€
NEIL CAVUTO: “But none of these stimulus packages, including the President’s, Mayor, have much of a long-term nature. A lot of them have these rebates and quick checks to folks. But if that’s all they can produce, and it looks like as this time that is all they can come up with, what do you think?â€
MAYOR GIULIANI: “I would think that would not be — that wouldn’t help very much. It would be like a Band-Aid. Just think of this situation. Companies that are considering investing long-term and have got three or four possibilities of where to invest the money and one of them is America — they are looking at an America in which the Bush tax cuts are going to expire, which means a 20 to 30 percent increase in taxes. They are looking at an America in which all kinds of tax increase programs are being suggested by people like Charlie Rangel. They’re looking at an American where if a Democrat gets elected there’ll be a vast expansion in the central government’s regulation of business and they’re looking at an America that has one of the most out of control legal systems as far as getting sued in the world. Well, when you look at an America like that, you may select Ireland or you may select Bermuda or you may select Eastern Europe or you may select China or India. So the American president has to understand that we have to be competitive.â€
And, Rudy on Hillary Clinton:Rudy also denounced Hillary Clinton for her pessimistic outlook toward the future. “I don’t think politicians should use words like global economic crisis, because sometimes you make what it is into a crisis when you call it that.”
