Giuliani takes first steps in '08 Presidential Bid
I don't think anyone is suprised by this, but here it is:

Giuliani takes first step toward '08 presidential bid - CNN.com

Rudy Giuliani is forming an exploratory committee.

What's truly suprising is that people are already polling on this crap. Rudy is in the lead.

Re: Giuliani takes first steps in '08 Presidential Bid
I never really followed races this early before (Thank you mediocre candidates of the last 8 years ).

People are making crazy predictions already about how he'll effect the election results. I haven't heard where he stands on ANY issues and these "experts" are talking about how he'll be making waves. Sure he's battle tested in crisis management, but that doesn't qualify him to be president.

I think this post is indicative of what's wrong with your party, Sheep. It's exclusivist, ideologically driven, fractious, intolerant, and poorly led. As opposed to the DNC, who are mostly just insane.

You are on the right track Sheep - however, if we run a conservative, we WILL lose the election. I would rather have a more liberal Rudy than that stump-legged HAG of a New York senator. What cracks me up is that she isn't even from New York! She bought a home in New York just prior to her announcing plans to run for senate. What a joke.

Re: Giuliani takes first steps in '08 Presidential Bid
I am going to admit to not knowing much about Giuliani's politics. But I CAN tell you I have been to NYC quite a bit in the early 80's and again starting in 1999 till now. I MUCH prefer The City post Giuliani!
Even the most liberal New Yorkers give him credit for the change.

Close. 42nd St used to be one of the coolest, most NWS streets on the planet. Now it's the third home to Disney and all the family oriented stuff you can find.
