Let us assume he gets the Republican Nomination.

Why is he more qualified than Hillary or Paul (face it he is the defacto Libertarian candidate) (the other 3rd parties are not worth mentioning), and what will he do that will make me better off.

Not what he is not going to do.

Not that he "omg he isn't hillaryz"

Why will his actions be better than hers?  List things he will do that will benefit the me.

For one, he and Congress will be of opposite parties, resulting in some amount of gridlock.  If Hillary gets in while there is a Democratic majority in Congress, I expect they will call it a "mandate" and go all-out on a socialist agenda, including wide-ranging universal health care and significant tax increases.

"not being retarded" is hardly a glowing qualification for a job....his appointments are unsatisfactorily average and they come from a New York socialist background.  This world view will carry over when selecting federal judges and all appointments will be in an effort to make the courts more like the "conservative" new york.

If there is one person you do not want as a president, it should be Hitlery.

Rudy isnt my choice, but if he gets the nod I will vote for him.

Dubya wasnt our favorite either.  But, he is surrounded by a Republican cabinet, Sr Republican Congressmen, and MAJOR Republican power and lobbyists.  

Would you rather have a so-so Rebublican president surrounded by other Republicans who we do like?  Or.... would you rather have Hitlery surrounded by powerful and very influential DemocRatic congressmen, lobbyists, and a communist cabinet.

Pick your poison.  At least you'll be able to recover from the Republican poison.

Think about it before you write in your vote for a person who can not win.

Leaving the markets alone is what the president should be doing.

And appointing strict constructionist judges is something the president should be doing.

In fact, those two things are more important than gun control legislation.

Furthermore, most of the candidates lack executive (i.e., leadership) experience. On the R side Rudy and Mitt have it, on the D side Richardson has it (and Richardson won't be at the top of the D ticket in 2008).

A vote for Giuliani is a vote for a "lesser evil".  As long as we keep actively choosing a government that isn't quite as bad as the alternative, we will continue to have bad government.

Let the Republicans fail, and learn that they need to actually start representing the wishes of the average American.  But if we keep propping them up, no matter what they do or say, they're just going to take our vote for granted and then try to out-Socialist each other to collect enough votes to go over the top.

Ron is 100% unqualified due to his 1960s-era 'All we are saaa-ying... Is give peace a chance' foreign polcy...

Hillary is allready planning 750 billion in new welfare spending, and is likely to have her husband's foreign policy 'priorities' (no war for oil or to destroy Al Queda, but we'll go to war over a barren rockpile because someone over there is being 'mean' to someone else  - in the name of the UN of course)...

IF, and I say IF Guliani becomes the nominee...

You vote for him because while not ideal, he is better than the other 2, and less likely to do damage.... Most of the major issues that we worry about (such as gun control) are able to be 'held down' by Congress... Note how much gun control made it out of Congress in the last 8 years...

If a Republican - even Rudy - wins in 08, he WILL improve our congressional position as well...

And the folks who *run* Congress with the GOP in charge are not RINOs (although some of their subordinates are)....

You should vote for rudy if you believe in civilian disarmament, infanticide, that good citizenship=total obedience to the state. If you have the soul of a slave, you should vote for rudy. If you think adolf hitler was just misunderstood, rudy is your man.

If you are not a conservative and believe that having the all mighty " R " behind your name means you can do no wrong, by all means vote for that facist prick. If you are big on sanctuary cities for illegals, as NYC was under rudy, vote for him and you can help make the entire country a sanctuary for illegals.

Well, one thing he will "do" is not "be" Hillary.

The current president had plans that were primarly domestic, events changed the course of things and he will be primarly known for his international actions. "No plan survise contact with the enemy" sort thing; Rudy's plans are not so much important as how he reacts to events.

Your demand to know Rudy's plan is silly; right now we are faced with several Republican candidate. Choose the one you like. Then, when the general comes around you will vote for the Republican candidate--if you are smart.
