Giuliani Out: An Analysis From His Own Camp
Published by Rod D. Martin January 30th, 2008 filed under Rudy Giuliani, RINOs, Election 2008, Rod D. Martin, TheVanguard.Org
In this vein, here’s the view from the extremely pro-Giuliani FrontPageMagazine, which is to say, David Horowitz:
But as the mayor’s poll numbers cratered in the days ahead of yesterday’s primary, it became clear that the numbers would not add up. In desperation, Giuliani turned to the trusted rule of politics: when all else fails, pander.
It was not a pretty sight. There was little, in the days before
Giuliani Implodes in Florida…and Everywhere

The Miami Herald reports that Giuliani has imploded in Florida. Polling courtesy of our own Kellyanne Conway, who has some serious money quotes in the story.
GOP v. Roe

No matter which Republican ends up facing Hillary or Obama this fall, count on that person to be the abortion establishment’s worst nightmare.
But wait a second, you say. Of the four leading GOP candidates, only one of them, Mike Huckabee, is both a longtime and a passionate pro-lifer. Mitt Romney appears ardent on the issue, but he’s a relatively recent convert. John McCain has never supported the pro-abortion position, but has historically lacked passion on the matter. And Rudy Giuliani remains unapologetically pro-choice.
So what is the extremist left — the supporters of abortion any time, any place, for any reason — so worried about? (continue reading post »)

When Hillary Clinton pointedly refused to criticize the disgraceful Moveon.org ad in the New York Times which called General Petreaus a traitor, Rudy Giuliani’s campaign followed with its own ad bashing Hillary.
Rudy’s Dilemma
Published by Charles Gordon May 20th, 2007 filed under Charles Gordon, Homeland Security, Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, Duncan Hunter, Campaigns, Groups & Parties, Foreign Policy/National Security, Abortion, GOP, Conservatism, War on Terror, Election 2008
It’s becoming increasingly clear that Rudy Giuliani has an obvious problem: Since he has refused to move away from his radical-left position on abortion, his only path to the nomination is to be tougher than tough on the war on terror. Yet it took Ron Paul’s blaming America for 9/11 to get Rudy any traction in the second presidential debate on what was supposed to be his number-one issue. Worse, at the end of the debate, it was Mitt Romney and Duncan Hunter who had the most authentically strong responses to the questioner’s asking what the candidates would do in the event of a series of terrorist attacks on shopping malls.

Giuliani: Taxpayer Funded Abortions a Constitutional Right
Published by Rod D. Martin April 4th, 2007 filed under Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Rudy Giuliani, Christian Activism, Abortion, Rod D. Martin, Election 2008, TheVanguard.Org
In his CNN interview today, Giuliani dropped the bomb: not only does he see abortions as a constitutional right, he believes that if “anyone” is “deprived” of one for lack of money, the taxpayers must pick up the tab.
This makes Giuliani the most pro-abortion candidate in the race by far. Not just on the Republican side: in the whole race. His adamant support (continue reading post »)
Giuliani on Hannity and Colmes
Published by Charles Gordon April 4th, 2007 filed under Campaigns, Groups & Parties, Same-Sex Marriage, Charles Gordon, Rudy Giuliani, Culture, Culture War, Abortion, Conservatism, War on Terror, Foreign Policy/National Security, Election 2008
Hannity interviewed him last night and Giuliani was “underwhelming,” to say the least.
If he’s serious about running for president, he’d better get less giddy and hyper and more focused, for starters.
