What does anyone know about this guy from a qualifications standpoint? He's a frickin' actor who's got about as much political experience as Obama.

I sincerely believe that in 2012, President Rudy Giuliani will win re-election. The public is looking for someone new and genuine. He may not be as conservative on social issues as we would like but he will appoint good judges.

I agree with George Will when he said that Giuliani has one of the most successful conservative records of the last fifty years.

Fred Thompson has a similar appeal but the front-loaded primaries will make his winning nearly impossible.

Does any other candidate have a record of accomplishment that even comes close to Giuliani's?

Well, Fred Thompson DOES have 10 years experience as a former US Senator and was a former special counsel to the Governor of Tennesse, as well as minority counsel on the Watergate Committe.

Surely, that must count as at least a little more political experience as Obama!

Reagan was a pretty good president, as I recall. Those whole "defeating communism" thing and all.

5:21, you forgot to mention that Reagan sent liberals and liberalism reeling. Too bad nobody has shared his vision the past two decades. This country would be much better off.

Obama doesn't have the experience and the LAST THING the U.S. NEEDS or for matter of FACT we DON'T need a Clinton in the White House ever again.

The Giulianis support traditional marriage. In fact, they have six of them between the two of 'em.

When you look at his record, he's much more liberal than either Tim Johnson or Stephanie Herseth (not to mention Stan Adelstein and the Mainstream Mafia). Why would we want someone like that to carry the banner for our party?

Thompson isn't perfect, but at least he's a Republican...

If the GOP elects Giuliani in the primary the democrats will win the White House. The conservative base will stay home and not vote at all. This a risk not worth taking.

The important part of the party will vote for Fred--that is the part with all the voters.

"If the GOP elects Giuliani in the primary....the conservative base will stay home."

Giuliani is strong on crime, terrorism, and he's pro-growth. He is a proven leader. I am a pro-life, pro-gun conservative and I will support him. He says that he will chose strict-constructionist judges and, unlike most politicians, I believe him.

If that is not enough, then I suspect that Hillary will give you even more incentive to vote.

Great attitude 10:39. Would you really want your pettiness to put Hillary in the White House?

I pretty much agree with 7:58. However, the problem I have with the current candidates for President is that not one of them will take a non-politically-correct stand against illegal immigration. Everybody Republican leader from President Bush on down is a pandering wimp on this issue. The only guy who has the guts to tell it like it is would be Tancredo and he doesn't have a chance in h--- of getting anywhere.

It's about health, not potential promiscuity.

As the only South Dakota blogger out with 5 daughters, I feel I need to weigh in on the whole discussion that's occurring with regards to the HPV vaccine, and Governor Rounds' proposal to make it available. My family (including my three oldest girls) watched my mom, their grandmother, succumb slowly and painfully to cancer which spread throughout her body. If a similar fate from a different type of cancer was preventable through a simple shot, why wouldn't anyone advocate for it? At the age most of my kids are going to be getting it, they're still playing with barbies, and negative influences such as most of the programming on MTV, and other assorted trashy television is verboten in my house. All they're going to know about this vaccination is that it's a shot, just like for teatnus or measles. They'll go "Ow, I don't want a shot," and that will be it. Just another mark on their vaccination record. One check box for DPT, one for HPV, and so on...

Is this a list of who's in and who's out on the impending abortion bill

By -
Here's a hot one - Republican District 6 Representative Kristi Noem sent out an e-mail plea yesterday to people in her District. It regards the abortion measure that I've noted is going to be filed in the legislature, supposedly by Representative Gordon Howie. Why is this interesting? It contains a run down of (allegedly) who is, and who isn't on board the measure in the senate: Abortion bill update from Rep. Kristi Noem I would like to ask you all to pray. There was an impromptu meeting today of all legislators in the House who have taken a strong pro-life position. One of our house members is considering filing a bill that would ban abortions in the state with exceptions for rape, incest, and for the health of the mother. These are the issues that most people had objections to during the initiative vote on November 7th when the Vote yes for life campaign lost its battle. There was some dissention among the group that some did not want the bill to be filed unless we coul...
