If Republican voters across the country decide that the party cannot cope with a conservative like George Allen and look toward a more Liberal candidate, I hope they opt for Former New York Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani over John McCain.
Rudi is at least honest about who he is. I do not trust McCain who has taken a straight razor to the first amendment, voted against tax cuts, advocates open borders, assails the SecDef in the middle of a war, attacks President Bush for five years before deciding that he’d better cozy up to the head of his party in time for 2008.
Rudi is Liberal to be sure, but to the extent that there is such a thing, he’s an honest Liberal. He’s not a McCain Liberal who votes against tax cuts before arguing to make them permanent. Rudi doesn’t get caught up in campaign corruption before blaming it all on the First Amendment and somehow come out as a political reformer for limiting free speech instead of a crook for taking the tainted money that caused the need for reform in the first place.
Rudi is tough with none of the vindictive mean-spirited charm of McCain. Rudi is a no non-sense guy who will throw a ten million dollar check in a man’s face if doesn’t like what that man says about his country. McCain will stuff the check into his pocket and then go about passing laws to shut the man as well as everyone else in America up.
If Republicans insist on entering a third Presidential Election without a conservative at the top of the ticket, I prefer Rudi. Rudi would then be free to employ the Bush gambit selecting a veep with strong conservative credentials and no presidential aspirations of their own, but I’m not sure Cheney is up to another 8 years as veep.
