1. One thing I hope this does
is totally embarass and humiliate Pat Robertson. I hope Rudy takes him down with him. Maybe they can play dress up together and run up a big lap dance tab.

4. I always felt Rudy would flameout
I think it will be Romney & Huckabee as his #2 to get the social conservative creds he needs.

Just my opinion.

5. This should be interesting.



The party that wanted to tar and feather Bill Clinton for his extracurricular activities now has a similar situation of their own to deal with. Now let's see what the hypocritical SOB's do about this.

:rofl: :rofl:

6. Only if some Demcrats open their traps and use it as an issue if he's the nominee...
What chance of that??? Let's see, Hillary, what's that about your husband?????

13. The ABH Factor
Repugnicans are desperate. They know their corrupt party is hanging on by its short hairs and that all that matters is both power and winning. Integrity? Whose got time for that when you have power to hold onto? Honesty? How the hell is that gonna beat Hillary? Hypocrisy? Pay no attention, again, it's all about beating Hillary and keeping power, nothing more.

Rudy could eat boooshie's live baby's on TV and Wolfie would claim how great it was how Rudy saved those poor babies from Hillary.

I'm already hearing Rudyasshats saying "hell, Clinton did it, so what". So much for the party of "family values". I knew all along Family Values was nothing more than the name of a drug store chain in Indiana.

15. I wish, but HUCKABEE just gave him absolution on This Weak
He said the Security people are who make all the decisions, that GHOULiani probably had nothing to do with it.


So is HUCKABEE angling for the VP slot under GHOULiani (as nominees, that is)?


But George-IstoleDebateBooks-WILL just said that HUCKABEE's rise in the polls will make him a spoiler, derailing ROMNEY and clearing the way for GHOULiani.
