The 'world' seems to be starting to Bush and the U.S. in a different light. Have you been listening to France and Germany lately. They are finally taking the proper U.S. side and now those once 'politically correct' Euros who were once worshipped by the likes of John Kerry et al, who wanted Bush and the U.S. to act more European, are now finally jumping on the U.S. band wagon sounding the alarm against the fanatical Ahmadinejad and the radical Islamist terrorists who can be counted on to act irrationally at just the time that rational action is required. Hold on to your shorts. They man soon be 'blown' off.

Rudy is calling himself MoveOn.Org's "worst nightmare!?" Someone should tell him the Sopranos are over and Tony is dead.

By the way he goes on about himself, one might think that HE scored those points for Notre Dame in that movie "Rudy."

Honestly, Rudy Giuliani sounds and looks as threatening as my kid's Elmo doll when it demands, "Tickle my feet."

To Steve:

I am glad the economy is a 'wreck'. Historically low unemployment. Historically high home ownership. Very strong stock market. Very low interest rates. Hope this 'wrecked' economy never gets 'healthy'…..

Rob, Phoenix, AZ

GOOD GRIEF, what PROOF do you have that hillary is mean?? like that wasnt a vague statement..

MOVEON.org??
You mean the Petraeus/Betrayus folks???
What are these people like 12 years old??
Oh…. they are???

I love these republicans getting angry and voting for Rudy in the priamaries. We need Rudy against Hillary or Obama or Edwards.

OOPS….the Iraq study group was recommending the surge, which Moveon.org opposed…….so moveon is denouncing Guiliani for not attending a group that recommended something they opposed…..WOW!

Can you imagine the liberals who don't know that George Soros is behind all the attack ads from MoveOn? Are you really that dumb…or just so angry about the war that facts are irrelevant? I read so much of these postings and wonder what is going through your heads? I wanted to ask that a general intelligence test be implemented before you are allowed to vote - but then the Democrats would only pull single digits. It seems as though the disenfranchised voters now have internet access in their houses….thanks Netzero…thanks for nothing

Not only does the ISG have low national approval ratings, but one of its main conclusions (apart from wanting negotiations with Iran and Syria) is a recommendation for a troop surge…a position that MoveOn.org is clearly against. So, in effect, MoveOn.org is criticizing Giuliani for not staying on a panel that produced recommendations that their own group dosagrees with.

Rudy eats this stuff up. He loves picking a fight which will highlight his strength and opposition to an EXTREME Left Wing group. And he won't back down from their nonsense. Talk about a primary boost! Thank you, George Soros.

"… 'MoveOn.org' and Democrats in general know that 'America's mayor' could quite possibly become 'America's President' in January 2009."

Only if every other candidate drops dead. Who wants a 9-11 exploiter who's been divorced…how many times? Whose kids dislike him immensely? Who has zero views of his own…he just attacks everyone else?

This guy couldn't get elected if he was running against O.J. Simpson.

"Can you say "Reagan Democrats"?"

Reagan Democrats were moderates, Thomas, old boy. There are no far-right religiously crazed, anti-Constitutional, homosexual-hating homosexual Democrats that I'm aware of.

Nice try. I know folks like you are getting desperate, 'cause I imagine fascists like this bunch won't be back in power for quite a while.

It's the Repubs that're going to experience defections by the millions in '08. Even an alcoholic can tell, this is the Republicans' SECOND big chance at running the country, and AGAIN they blew it.

/***
Keeping dems from inflicting their agenda on us is good for our country's economy and our saftey.
***/

Have you been asleep? The economy is a wreck. Our Worst. President. Ever. has presided over the largest spending spree in history, causing the largest deficits in history.

We're far less safe than we were after 9-11. Your moron prez has fought the wrong enemy (Iraq instead of Saudi Arabia) and allowed terrorists to recruit far greater numbers of anti-American soldiers than would have taken place without our immoral and illegal invasion.

Many nations in the world, formerly friends, now look at us like we're nuts. Well, we are. Look at our dippy leaders, especially President Child and his handler, the REAL President, Cheney the fascist.

Just another AID for the Republican base. The best marketing agent helping the Republicans are the far left liberal Democrats and their owners - MoveOn.org. Hopefully, they will continue to ramp up their rhetoric. The louder they wail, the better it is for Republicans.

Rudy's stance DECLINING the Saudi money to help New York will forever be engraved in the public soul. This act alone will serve to get him elected.

Rudy can shore up his perceived weaknesses by ADDING Mike Huckabee to his ticket. By doing so, this would insure 16 more years of Republican presidency.

When the GOP whines "MoveOn" I reply "SwitBoaters for Lies"…. funny how the GOP dislikes money flowing to anywhere else but their coffers … Abramoff was not a Democrat - nor was Duke (living like royalty) Cunningham. What about the "unknown" contributors who ran the nasty ads against McCain in NY and elsewhere.

Then there is Mitt - rich enough to buy the election with his personal fortune … He bought the straw poll in Iowa!

What's sauce for the goose often ends up being sauce for the gander …

Sigh. Has there ever been a more hypocritical bunch than the modern liberals? I hear people calling Rudy 'mean' and a 'bully', but there's plenty of evidence to suggest that Hillary is probably the meanest politician out there!

And I hear people saying that the GOP politicians are bad because they never explain how they will achieve their policy aims. Good grief. Throwing out vague policy ideas that sound great (if you are incredibly naive) but have no chance in hell of working or ever getting through the Congress, as well as having no explanation for how they plan to accomplish these fantasies is the bread and butter of the Dems today, and there is no way any objective person can dispute that.

yea thats it the democrats are just SCARED of giuliani….hes soooo strong!!! lol is that a joke? if giuliani goes against ANY democrat he would lose…..its so funny how they say moveON is the most POWERFUL left wing organization!!! like its some huge conglomerate some evil empire!!! ridiculous… people just believe in their message because they are sick of this administration and its about time somebody took to war to the republicans…if anybodies powerful its the republicans, what they did to take power was devious, cunning and as undehanded as you can get!!!

On 9/10 Giuliani was washed up as a mayor.He is still washed up.He can't even figure out what kind of Republican he is let alone what kind of president!The NYPD and the NYFD have denounced him and all that he DOESN'T stand for and everyone else should too!

He represents the lowest form of politician,the parasitic opportunist that feeds off of the efforts of others and their tragedies to become a "STAR"!

Posted By Jeff from New Jersey : September 18, 2007 6:38 pm

Jeff, if you're from our part of the country you're preaching to the choir. Now, if the rest of the nation would come to realize what a creep this guy is, not just in his political life but also as a person.

Too many of us remember how he announced his intention to divorce Donna without even telling her first. Did he stop to think what it would do to his then small children to find out that daddy was divorcing mommy through a press conference??? To top it all, he allowed his mistress to stay with him at Gracie Mansion while his wife and kids were still living there!!! It took a judge to force Rudy to move the tramp out of the house. He then proceeded to marry the woman. Yeah, Judith would make a fine First Lady!!

There is nothing the left can say that can outdo the hate and venom of the neo-cons. Limbaugh, Coulter, O'Reilly, and all their ilk have divided this country and have pushed political dialogue to a new low.

Don't ask for unity, neo-cons. What you really want is blind obedience.

Moveon.org does not speak for the Democratic Party. It stands taller than the Democratic Party!

Chris, are you seriously buying THAT as a description?

You don't think standing at the site of 9/11, while ignoring recommendations of where to keep your Command Center, and then blubbering "terrorists, 9/11, terrorists, 9/11″ and using images in video for your campaign is NOT "politicizing the war"?!?! You have GOT to be kidding me with this kindergarten reasoning.

From a poster at C&L:
"Some perspective for those whose knickers are in a twist over this ad: Kerry was swiftboated and then publicly mocked with purple bandages at the Repub Convention, a concerted effort by bona fide representatives of the GOP to denigrate a veteran who acted honorably in Vietnam and upon his return home. MoveOn has a long, long way to go before they ever reach the despicable depths that the GOP has displayed."

STuff it, Rudy blind supporters.

Giuliani…. calls the organization "the most powerful left wing group in the country" and says the organization is attacking the New York Republican because they “know Rudy is a Republican who can beat Democrats".

Oh Rudy, they didn't even mention you until you "attacked" them first by taking out an ad in the Times and also releasing a video. Typical Rudy in his former role as prosecutor, use every trick in the book to win a case and gain notoriety for political gain (then it was running for mayor, now it's the presidency). He's pandering to the Republican base because his numbers have been slipping since Thompson joined the race.

Posted By James, Phoenix AZ : September 18, 2007 8:01 pm

Moveon.Org is a front for a few wealthy individuals attempting to control US elections:
——————————

Unlike the wealthy GOP that steal US elections, James?

Any bets on how long Guiliana's going to wimp, whine and milk this? Probably just as long as he's going to milk 9/11. The man's a fool - do we really want another fool running the country for another four years??

To Mac and all the others who question Rudy's Iraq Study group withdrawal:

He already said that he withdrew in order to not politicize the war and the group when he was seriously thinking about running for president. It was an abmirable thing to do (otherwise he risked accusations of advancing his political goals), unlike MoveOn's unadmirable attack on a distinguished general and Hillary Clinton's equally unadmirable accusation that the same general is a liar.

I hear lots of calls for Rudy to drop this or to "MoveOn" from the issue from dems. For this reason I think he shouldn't. If the dems are begging him to do something, then it shows real fear that he could damage their chances at taking power. Keeping dems from inflicting their agenda on us is good for our country's economy and our saftey.

Of course he wont address MoveOn's claims and instead just tries to discredit MoveOn. That's what's wrong with politics today.

Also, "betray us" came from TROOPS serving directly under Petraeus…
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/9/18/215826/698

As the quote goes..who are you going to support, a politicized military authority, or the TROOPS?!

I wonder how many people posting comments here really know Giuliani or have read his book on leadership? Why do you think he is in such great demand as a speaker? It's because he is a great leader. He's done great things for New York and can do the same for the nation. Has everyone forgotten that NY seriously considered extended (I forget if they actually did or not) his term as Mayor because of his leadership skills on 9/11? Who cares how many wives he's had. Go read his book, the man is successful and a great leader that can do great things for this country.

I am a conservative in Kansas (Brownbacks state), wanting to let James from Atlanta know that very view moderates or conservatives support Sam B. here. The man is as out of touch with current issues on the world stage as the liberal democrates.
As far as MoveOn. is concerned, their latest attack on our soldiers and general Petraus has turned the stomaches of even the far left here in the heartland (Kansas liberals are probably too mid-lined on moral issues to be viewed as supporters of MoveOns' overall agenda).
Giuliani is so scattered when it comes to absolute resolve on ANY issue that he will never be accepted by the overall those of us on the conservative right.
The Democratic support for MoveOn.orgs 'pull-out and give up' platform is actually a good move for republicans. This is a very fragile approach to winning the office, that depends on the U.S. and its allies keeping enough pressure on Islamic extremists in the Mdl East to prevent another attack. In some wierd twist of irony, Clinton and Obamas campaign both depend on the the presidents success in Iraq.

Anthony Higgins, is your head in the sand?

You have a website Moveon.org, which is funded by many people, George Soros included..and you have the audacity to criticize it while RUPERT MURDOCH OWNS FOX NEWS, MYSPACE, DOW JONES, etc and he obviously has a major "conservative bias". He allowed a Muslim investor in NEWSCORP to dictate a change in how Muslims were being portrayed in France during the riots. Have you VISITED moveon.org? They're no more "crazy" than you or I. How does Ted Nugent's comments (which didn't get ANY denouncing from republicans) compare to "general betrayus"? WAKE UP.

You people who are being blind to the fact that giuliani is NOT SUPPORTED by First responders who had interactions with him at 9/11 have your head in the sand; and why DID he leave the Iraq Study Group?!? What is WRONG with asking that? THINK!

I think Mr. Giuliani's "worst nightmare",
is that people like myself, a 55 year old middle-class woman living in Georgia, is contributing money to Moveon.org.
The American people are sick of the lies about Iraq, and 'aren't going to take it anymore'. Moveon.org is speaking out, so I will continue to support them financially.

Well, he can sure go after American political dissidents with a lot of energy. Let's see how he does against real-world stuff! When he's finished beating up an ad campaign maybe he can go after Spongebob, then Rosie O'Donnell - anyone who won't shoot back.

He couldn't manage his three marriages (only three ladies). How can he manage the country? Too much tough talks like Bush!!!

Fainally a Republican who is not worried about taking on the most leftiest group in America Moveon.org. Show them Rudy that Republicans don't run!

Rudy Giuliani IS A SKUNK!

MoveON is a joke.It will ban you from its site if your say something they do not like

i …a move that follows the former New York City mayor's release of a radio ad blasting the group and calling himself its "worst nightmare."

More like the left’s dream candidate. There’s no chance that this out-classed freak-show will win in the general election.

i they “know Rudy is a Republican who can beat Democrats. And they know, no matter what they say, Rudy will never ever back down."

Hahahaha – I only hope we get the chance to see how wrong they are.

this is just getting ridiculous. I mean really is this what the political climate is shaped by. This back and forth fighting is helping neither side….I think they both just sound like idiots.

MoveOn, however liberal or crazy someone may think it is, launches an ad with a REAL criticism of Rudy and he can't even answer. I also just don't get why Republicans hate MoveOn.org so very much… maybe it's because their ads aren't just a bunch of talk- they use evidence.

Rudy is a terrorists worst nightmare too. That's why terrorists openly, and probably monetarily, support MoveOn.org and the Democrats political ambitions.

I think it is legitimate for MoveOn.Org to point out weaknesses and hypocrisy in any candidate's position. And everyone knows that General Petraeus had no choice other than to present the best possible picture of the status of the Iraq War or President Bush would have retired him without a blink. I watch CNN all the time and note anchors and journalists asking hard questions to both sides…..Claims of undue bias are absurd. Keep it up CNN. You're doing a great job.

Do we keep forgetting the freedom of speech thing?
The fact that we have to keep apologizing for how WE feel?
That we can't speak our minds?
This country is becoming more and more divided over the stupidest things.
Grow up America. There are people dieing from lack of health care; they are losing their homes, their jobs ..
And we're worried about some name calling? AAARRRGGGHHH

Gee wiz, to those that are offened by the moveon.org ads, were you equally offened by the swiftboat attack ads against John Kerry? Welcome to the new version of dirty politics. Fact or fiction who cares.

This guy would be a punching bag for MoveOn.

Its about time librals got into dirty politics. Republicans have become specialists at it. It is the bread and butter of Karl Rove. Did they really expect to not have it come back and bite them in the rear?

If any of you people had lived in New York while Guliani was mayor you wouldn't be so high on him. He's a corrupt, incompetent, lying jerk and the Moveon.org ad is quite correct. He did ditch the Iraq Study Group in favor of cashing in on 9/11 with high-paying speaking gigs. He's a horrible politician.

Rudy Giulani seems awol from many important events. In 1993 he was given reccommdations after the WTC bombing and ignored them. It resulted in chaos on 9/11 because FDNY and NYPD were never given the communication they needed to avoid such a disaster. Giuliani placed the command center, yeah you guessed it-TWC. This is a person who should run a country when he coouldn't run a city?
He is annoyingly redundent with his MoveOn mantra. He repeats over-and-over the same comments.

To the supporters: Doesn't it bother you that Rudy doesn't deem it worthy to address the substance of the ad? I haven't looked into this, so I have no idea whether the claims in the ad are right or wrong… But that Rudy ignores them completely sure suggests that they're right.

Before you agree with MoveOn's condemnation of anyone, investigate MoveOn's relationship with Billionaire George Soros. Do this now: Google MoveOn George Soros.

To Robert Marley in Jamaica NY

"I love how the headline on your website reads: "Giuliani ad: I'm your 'worst nightmare.'"

How can you say CNN is taking the quote out of context when in fact, those were Giuliani's EXACT words. How else were they supposed to quote it?

Giuliani does leave me with some cause for concern. What did he do before the September attacks? What were his policies and how was he viewed by the residents of NYC? These are questions that people should be asking. Under what circumstances did crime get reduced? Was it nation-wide reduction? Was there any help from D.C. or other locations? What did he do that was done solely by executive order and bypassed the city council? What did he do to help first responders before and after the attacks?

As for Moveon.org, it is an advocacy group. Yes it favors liberal positions. That is all well and good. Think how well the country has done under a "conservative president?" Rudy could be close to that conservative where budget deficits grow and policies that are "my way or the highway" kind of attitude. There are times for making decisions regardless of what other people think, and there are times where you need to rely on getting concensus. I don't know if Giuliani, Romney, and others (on both sides) truly know what that means. The current president seems to have forgotten that at most times.

If Rudy Giuliani becomes President, then there is something seriously wrong with this country.

Rudy Giuliani would be the worst pick for President. Before 9/11 this man's approval rating was around 35%, the same for our current president. Rudy likes to market himself as a 9/11 hero but the exact opposite it true. Why do you think NYC Firefighters do not support this man? If this man becomes president…god help us all.

Republicans doesn't like the TRUTH and hate it, because they are all liars. Rudy is the typical double faced person. He couldn't answer the important questions at all. Now he is using Hillary for his appear, but Americans are not that stupid like Republicans. MoveOn.Org is our heror for communications and CNN is the most trustworthy media in this Country so far. I love CNN and I watch CNN everyday. Walter Michel, you will be back to CNN because they are doing the best job for our Mass Communication.

Giuliani, at best, is some indigestion problem, certainly, not a nightmare. This guy aught to go back to New York City and do right by it, instead of grandstanding his way through the aftermath of that terrible day. I hope the Republicans choose him as their Presidential nominee and Craig as their VP choice. Amatch made in our White House, because it has the lack of potential to being worse then the present Incompetents, now occupying our White House!!
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, BRING THEM HOME, ALIVE. NOW.

He wants to blow this out of proportion to distract everybody from looking at his stand on any issues…

Stick to the issues, please. Don't let them baffle you.

Rudy Giliani's social views are tantamount to those of the Democratic presidential candidates.

However, Rudy is far more tenacious in the fight against crime and terrorism.

For these reasons, 'MoveOn.org' and Democrats in general know that 'America's mayor' could quite possibly become 'America's President' in January 2009.

Can you say "Reagan Democrats"?

Giuliani needs some faceless cause in order to build his own reputation. Seeing how meager it is compared to the rest of the candidates~ why don't you "MOVEON" Giuliani and find something legitimate to link to the democratic party as opposed to playing these chickenhawk republican games. What happen to the Republicans of old?? The ones who didn't play these foolish games. You truly show the world how FAKE you are when you pull charades such as this.

He, yea right. This guy is a joke and obviously not too smart either.

Republicans are the bread and butter of MoveOn.org. Without people like Bush or Giuliani MoveOn would go out of business.

Quite the opposite. Giuliana is MoveOn.Org's money tree and MoveOn's supporters couldn't care less what he says, so … really whats his point ?

I think we can see Giulliana is desperate for media attention. Face it, Fred Thompson is getting more media play than Giuliana, and that's not much.

Who cares what Giuliani's opinion is on 911. He is nobody, he has no high level executive experience, he thinks 911 wasn't caused by foreign policy but rather the terrorists just randomly attacked us, he has repeatedly dressed in drag (which isn't going to look good in a real presidential level campaign), and even the people of New York would vote for Hilary before this chump.

He spends the majority of his media time trying to insult democrats and other liberal supporters. MoveOn is right when they say that he cannot make a legit stand on anything, but rather he resorts to name calling and BS every time.

He might not be the worst presidential hopeful, but if he can't answer the questions and if he doesn't realize the 911 attacks were primarily motivated by revenge for what most people consider our unjust foreign policies in the middle east dating back 70+ years.

How can this man hope to slow the momentum of the terrorist movement when he fails to acknowledge it's roots ?

Also, his socialized medicine sound byte campaign is pathetic. If 'socialized medicine' is the best this guy and his camp can come up with then they are just simply irrelevant. Hey, wake up Giuliana, the cold war is over, we aren't scared of socialism anymore.

How stupid do the republican's think the average person is that the term socialized medicine should scare them.

The police, firefighters, military, FDA, CIA, FBI, ATF, Veteran's health care, FDIC insurance. Those are all socialized programs as well.

By Giuliana logic we should get rid of all those evil social programs also and just live in chaos and fear while the wealthy ride by in their bullet proof Hummers. Cmon, more scare tactics and no real answers, Giuliana, I know your a republican, but I thought you could do a little better.

Stop trying to sell your faith to American people and give us some real answers on your platform stances.

If you need some realistic ideas on how to appeal to moderates and actually stand a chance in this election, give me a ring. Without moderate appeal you are no going to win this election and the majority of moderates this term are learning left after the failure that was Bush Jr.

Oh well, honestly, I'll vote for whoever gives me the best health care and can realistically win. Probably Hilary even though her health care plan seems weak compared to Canada and most well off European countries. Still, I imagine she is trying to dodge lobbying from the medical industry that more or less killed her chances last time, yeah, that and the GOP congress.

I think, honestly, this time around, full national health care has a real chance. However, getting the Democrats all on the same page for a vote is near impossible, even in the wake of mass public approval.

I think Moveon.org should have a right to express themselve. After all Republicians have their own tv station. Fox and Friends. That is all they are about. Never hear anything good about Democrats on there , they are always bashing demos. So let move on. org go with their advertisement . That is all we have. Just shut up about it.

tort reform. A plan by which the death of a patient or injury through negligence can be entered into the books at a fixed cost, More koolaid Dan? Check Rudy's record, then think of his commitments as the vows he exchanged with his 2 former wives.

Rudy Giuliani is his own worst nightmare.

moveon.org jumped the shark in 2004

So I'm still not hearing an answer from either Mr Giuliani or those commenting here supporting him; Did he go AWOL on the 911 commission or not?

"MoveOn is despised by Republicans, so I want to thank MoveOn for attacking Rudy."

Silly boy. Everyone ELSE knows that Rudy attacked Move On first.

Get a MITT! Get in the GAME!

*This* little weasel of a man, exploiting 9-11 for personal gain…THIS is Move On's worst nightmare?

It's to laugh. Move On is growing and getting more donations. I myself am not much of a follower, but with Cheney, Romney, McIrrelevant and now Guiliani - geez, I've never seen a little political org so terrorize these…well, American terrorists, at least in Cheney's case.

Let me see if I have this right. The neo-cons attack John Kerry in 04′ and that's alright, but the liberals attack Gen. Petraus and it's a federal crime.

Once again we see the stupidity of the right wing. It sucks when the shoe is on the other foot huh? I hope all of you neo-cons are happy now. Free speech sucks now I sure, but in 04′ you didn't think so. Next time you should think very hard about a plan before you act on it and look stupid forever.

One difference between the left and the right is the left doesn't lie every time it opens its mouth, the right does.

Rudy could make a lot more money with Guiliani Partners LTD if he was President. Guiliani Partners is a no-bid contractor to train security in Iraq. The blood is cash.

http://www.ronnierayjenkins.com

Rudy I have some advice for you. Move on. Then Move Out. Out the country, until the elections are over and we have a good left wing president and Congress as well. Hey Walter in Houston CNN is centrist, we don't have a truly liberal news organization for the mainstream in this country. Unless you ask the uneducated yokels who still think there's a liberal bias in the media.

Move on, MoveOn, Guliani is our jewel.

The man can't even fix his own familial relationships, and he is going to fix our health care system? Yeah, he is a nightmare, this country's worst. Can you say WWIII? God help us if this bufoon gets elected.

Giuliani says that he wants to represent ALL of the people of the United States yet,when offered a forum to speak to people of color he is a "NO SHOW"! He said NO to Univision to speak to the Spanish community and he said NO Tavis Smiley to speak to the Black community! These two forums represent the largest following in both of these communities. There is no way in 2008 that a candidate will be successful by ignoring these two communities!

Rudy, you have my vote for sure after seeing this headline and acticle. Anything that's moveon.org's worst nightmare is good enough for me. CNN, if you endorse moveon.org in any way you can bet it will backfire….you go Rudy!

Great, just what we need: another divisive leader.

I think Rudy has this backwards. MoveOn is his worst nightmare. Wake up people!!!

Okay, MoveOn keep em' coming! The more visible you become to Americans, the more they'll see your guys mentality, and the kind of candidates/platform you stand for. Kind of like ol' Captain Queeg in Caine Mutiny, regular folks want you to keep talking, we'll keep listening, and who you are and what you stand for will be there for all to see. You're doing pretty good so far! Most people I've talked with about your organization think you're a bunch of weirdo's. I can't disagree.

Good lord. Rudy Giuliani is everybody's nightmare. Be very afraid.

It becomes real scary out in political land when a person decides to vote for someone just because someone else is against them. I would hope that people instead would vote for the issues a person running for office believes in rather than vote for someone to get back at some political group. I mean just where is the intelligence factor in that vote?

Dan from Baltimore:

Do you think he is Superman? That list is quite the stake in the ground.

what he means is he is EVERBODYS nightmare!

You really have to hate someone that speaks about themselves in the third person.
Shut up Rudy.

Signed a Firefighter

I think MoveOn is doing a great job paying for Rudy's marketing. There is nothing wrong with free marketing dollars:-)

I am a Democrat voting for Rudy in 08!!! BTW, I am voting for islama in the primary. Clinton sucks!

So why is MoveOn.org radical, because they think the Iraq war is a bad idea executed badly? Hell, sign me up then.

Though Scary Rudy saying he's your worst nightmare is a threat not to be taken lightly. He could scowl them into submission.

He needs to be exposed for not only "capitalizing "on 911 but also putting ten's of thousands of 911 clean up crew in the harms way of toxic dust that he knew they we're being exposed. Worst Nightmare ? You bet.

TO THE PEOPLE THAT SAY RUDY WILL DO THIS, RUDY WILL FIX THIS WHEN HE IS PRESIDENT (GOD FORBID)SEEM TO FORGET A PRESIDENT CAN NOT DO ONE THING WHITH OUT CONGRESS AND THE SENATE APPROVAL.

I think the Guiliani fans ought to read some more about what really happened to NYC before and after 9-11, and do some research into his trophy wife, who fancies herself a queen-in-waiting. This man scares me to death. He has the money and reputation to get to people, and the more MoveOn can bring out about his failures, the better for the country. There are many more qualified and honest people out there.

Dan you must be joking. Guiliani is hated by most people in NY. As president he wood prove to be more slimy than the current one.

Wow… Rudy must really have the left wing radicals at MoveOn worried.

This is the best sort of press that he can get. Thanks, MoveOn for motivating the conservative base to form ranks around Rudi.

Later you guys can pat yourselves on the back for getting him elected our next President in 2008.

Rudy is WORSE than Bush. He's a nightmare alright, but not for MoveOn.org, but for America.

Giuliani is a one pony show. Once he stops trying to make people scared of terrorism, he's got nothing left. He'd be real a nightmare alright- as President.

As a Moveon member, I can say with great confidence, Rudy, not only are you not a threat to MoveOn, thankfully, you are not even a threat to the elections.
MBuckley
Concord, Ohio

Political campaigns can be conducted at many different altitutdes. Giuliani clearly didn't have lofty aspirations– he has gone subterranean in record time. Now he is in the mud with MoveOn. Hillary, justifiably, won't even deign to engage. Where does he go from here?

Good for Rudy for standing up to this despicable organization. MoveOn.org is a disgrace to our nation.

As much of a nightmare as it would be for Rudy to be President, MoveOn is every bit as bad and more. They espouse everything that the Democratic Party should be ashamed of, just as folks like Rush Limbaugh or the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth do for the Republicans. Apparently, those of us in and around the center have few good choices left in candidates; they are too worried their parties won't find them left or right enough.

Perhaps we the people should find candidates who first and foremost believe in the will of the people, and as a second principle, do what they believe to be ethically and morally right, regardless of party lines. Isn't that what is the most important in running this country?

I don't want anything that calls itself a nightmare in the White House. 8 years of nightmares are enough already. I'm not expecting the American people to wake up from their corporate, political and, yes, media induced slumber (that would fall under the category of pipe dreams), but at least sweet dreams and peaceful slumber would be better than what we've had for the past eight years.

Rudy is actually a liberal so I don't care. People who think Rudy is a real republican are fooling themselves.

No way this sick freak will become President under the GOP…How many wifes has he had and does his kids still even support him??

Rudy's dad was in the mafia .Isn't america a great coutry when your dad is a killer you can run for president

Not to mention Rudy has NEVER visited Iraq. What a caring little monster.

Michael of Indy…You are just like all Republicans and will support a candidate not because of their positions, but instead because of political spin. What sheep!

Giuliani has always been a member of the PNAC Group. The Iraq Invasion needed a Motivation; Thus 9/11 was the instrument in tack! Giuliani along with many of this group should have been Indicted for Treason. Now he wants to be Your President?

I'm really glad CNN did a story on this.

I'll for sure vote for Giuliani in the general election(if he gets the party nomination)now. So thanks moveon.org, you've made this a lot easier

Nice to know that you would want a man that dodged an opportunity to participate in the re-shaping of a failed war policy so he could make million dollar speeches as your commander and chief!

Then again maybe its people like you that are the reason we have George Walker Bush…..Your honor I rest my case!

Running against MoveOn instead of against the Democrats themselves shows how hollow Guiliani's candidacy is. It's the old Bush/Rove tactic of creating a false and fictitious enemy, then defining it, and then resolutely running against it. The last two times the press bought into the tactic and magnified the message, it worked and Americans were hoodwinked. Not this time.

The republicains finally have something they can talk about. They can't talk about a lot of other things (Iraq War, Honesty in government, the US Economy, Strange republicain Senators). Giuliani will wilt under Moveon.org because the truth will be known. Besides, how strong can Giuliani be if Thompson can jump in and be neck and neck with him?

Thanks, moveon. I've moved on away from moveon.

(please not the lack of capital letters has the purpose of not showing hippy provacateurs any respect)

While Rudy G is not my preferencial Candidate for President,but I give him a lot of credit for standing up to Move On Org, which is the closest organization to communism in America, short of that party itself.MO Org has a lot of negative nerve to actually publicly run an ad distorting a hatefull description of one of our most prestigious Military Generals of our time, during this stressfull period of war and danger from muslim terrorists.MO Org reminds of the mindset of villians like Hanoi Jane and others who would want the destruction of America from within,,,,,My Congrats to Rudy ! and GO Fred for president!

No, Rudy, they're attacking you because you're a morally, upstanding, thrice-married, Christian valued blow hard!

In other words….a phony, self-involved, glory hound!!!

Why do you republicans support this guy for your nominee. He's willing to 'say and do' anything, much like Romney.

It's sad that so many are so naieve when it comes to his history in office. Dont take it from me, take it from all the N.Y. organizations who are outspoken about Rudy being terrible for the president.

You republicans will lose. You will lose terribly with Rudy as your canidate.

Keep it up, MoveOn! The more you yap on, the more folks will feel a disaffection with the liberal left wing. You think anyone in Giuliani's campaign really cares what you say? Do you think mainstream America even takes you seriously? C'mon…but you go right ahead…keep yappin'.

"The MoveOn ad, which began airing in Iowa Monday, slams Giuliani for leaving the bipartisan Iraq Study Group after two months." I'm sorry that some people, unlike a lot of politicians, have better things to do with their time. For example, run for President.

Hey Rudy, calm down. You definately aren't anybody's worst nightmare, Cheney is. Actually I think you're in the bottom 5% of the 'national worst nightmare list.' You're just not that scary.

I am amazed that you consider this jabberjaw nonsense about moveon.org news! when students are manhandled and tasered by police who then fabracate a report about him inciting a riot. Is CNN part of the police state or fascist trend, If you want an issue to have politicians comment on they should look at how this student was treated in our COUNTRY by a policeforce apparently bent on abuse, brutality and well off to creating fascist atmosphere. most of you do not remember the democratic convention in chicage in 1968 when demonstrators were abused by the politically movtivated and very brutal police force. our democracy and freedom is slip sliding away and our elected are greasing the slide.

How malicious has politics in this country gotten when politicians are advertising themselves to be other citizens "worst nightmare". We shouldn't be hating our ideological opponents like that.

If you base your vote on ANY organization whether it is MoveOn,the DAR or the NAACP your an idiot!
Candidate Giuliani should be right up your alley.He talks REAL tough but he runs away and hides when it REALLY gets tough.Once again,ask the NYPD and the NYFD!Deep down this guy's a bully and everyone,exept of course the idiots that actually believe his BS,knows that all bullies are cowards!He should be the LAST choice for Republicans that actually have the capacity to think!He's the best thing to happen to Democrats in decades!

Republicans are scared!!! Hahaha

Now whos the loser Giuliani?

HILLARY 2009!!!

The whole republiscum ticket is a night mare. The best of the lot is Ron Paul, and he is still a minor night mare.

I'm not sure I follow the rationale here. What value does Rudy add to the Iraq study group? Either he's 'just a mayor' and 'only understands NYC' or he's this expect on world events and Iraq. You can't have it both ways. I'm not saying I'm either for or against Rudy or MoveOn, I just don't understand MoveOns point?

Sorry about the links in the above post.

Here they are…working…lol

Best,
Steve

Like anyone in their right mind would listen to anything this fringe group rants on about.

Whoops, forgot that they are one of the bigger supporters of the Democratic party and its presidential candidates. Guess they might listen to what MoveOn.Org has to say.

Recently found out that this group was started by a couple from Berkley who was motivated by a desire to keep then President Slick Willy from being impeached. And what a truly noble group of Americans they are.

Who is funding this nonsense?

Rudy IS a nightmare! Visit therealrudy.org

Guiliani will be worst than Bush. And he's really mean. We don't need a mean President. Plus he's made money off of Hugo Chavez's corporations and he didn't keep 911 rescue workers safe. He does not care about the ordinary people. He is just a phone politician.

Moveon.Org is a front for a few wealthy individuals attempting to control US elections:

Although Democrats often maintain that their unprecedented outside-the-party campaign against President Bush last year, led by the so-called 527 groups, was a broad-based, grassroots effort, it was, in fact dependent in substantial part on just five donors: financier George Soros, Progressive Insurance chairman Peter Lewis, Hollywood mogul Stephen Bing, and the California investors Herbert and Marion Sandler. Together, they spent about $78 million in the effort to defeat the president — more than the $75 million in federal funds that each presidential candidate received to conduct his entire general election campaign. (It was also more than twice what the late-starting top five Republican 527 donors spent on their side.)

Those of you that think 5 wealthy liberals should control and influence the US election process - continue applauding and supporting Moveon.org.

I'm torn between my genetic liberal instincts which find Rudy a sorry excuse for a Presidential candidate, and my solid conviction that Hillary is Mrs. Wrong and only Rudy can beat her. Decisions, decisions.

I hope this does drive more GOP voters to vote for Giuliani in the primary. That'll really make the GOP nomination race a total cluster. It's so much fun watching them battle for the Christian Right lunatic fringe whilst completely disregarding every single issue of importance to the rest of the country both domestically and internationally. Heckuva job GOP! Btw, MoveOn is right, Rudy butchered the ISG thing so badly that it is comical. Or, at least, it WOULD be comical if he didnt skip on the ISG solely to make money off of the Americans who died in his city on 9/11. Typical GOP… Milking the worst disaster in the history of our country to financially benefit himself. Horrendous and shameful. Made even worse that his response to critique is to go after the group itself. Funny, I thought that IN AMERICA people and interest groups are free to purchase ads and free to speak their opinion. I guess not in Rudy World. What a total joke.

Giuliani = Has Been (if ever was)

I was watching Rudy Giuliani on Larry King recently and every time Larry asked him a question, Giuliani would pop his eyes open real wide, squint, pop. This was going on until the end of the interview. I think there is something wrong with him.

How bout you "Moveon" from "Moveon.org" and start talking about what you will do for this country. Typical Republican debating. Pointing the finger but yet not responding on he would run the country. But i guess thats what he would do. He's so corny

Interestingly, MoveOn.org, while criticizing Giuliani for not "defending" himself from their attack, did not answer his charge of them being the most powerful leftist organization in politics today. And by extension, why should anyone care what they have to say anyway? Who voted for them? Why should George Soros money be allowed to dominate American politics?

Rudy would be a nightmare, MoveOn or not.

I love how the headline on your website reads: "Giuliani ad: I'm your 'worst nightmare.'"

This is the typical type of anti-Republican bias that really frosts me when it comes to CNN. I used to respect this news organization before you started trying to compete with MSNBC for radical left viewers.

MoveOn is despised by Republicans, so I want to thank MoveOn for attacking Rudy. There's no doubt that their commercial is going to drive more people to his candidacy. When he gets the nomination, he'll go on to win the presidency and we'll have a president whose drive and positions will do a lot of good for our country. Just think of all the positive accomplishments he can make:

1) Keep us on offense against terrorism.
2) Fix health care through tort reform and the relaxing of government bureaucracy which keeps insurance expensive.
3) Seal the borders to illegal immigration and use tamperproof ID cards and criminal acts to rank order who should be sent out of the country first.
4) Fix social security through his plans for private accounts, so that even young people can hope to see their Social Security payments in the future.
5) Reduce taxes and help our economy grow.

If CNN supports MoveOn by airing its adds or by giving it air time I will change from being a long time CNN viewer to somebody who ignores CNN.

I'm really glad CNN did a story on this.

I'll for sure vote for Giuliani in the general election(if he gets the party nomination)now. So thanks moveon.org, you've made this a lot easier

Rudy Giuliani as President is my worst nightmare.

Rudy's our 'worst nightmare' alright… as President of the United States.

Just ask the NYPD and the NYFD about Rudy.He deserted them in their greatest time of need.He wrapped himself in the American flag,put on a couple of caps and then split!He has been trying to live off of their bravery ever since!Sound familar?The people that live at 1600 Pennsylvania ave. have done the same!They too just show up for photo ops,make empty promises that they never intend to keep and then head for the hills!

Giuliani is just a loudmouthed punk that washes himself in the blood of the TRUE HEROES and then tries to make everyone think that he is too!Sound familar?Al Sharpton did the same thing with the Tawana Brawley hoax and Jesse Jackson,who was nothing more than a glorified "go'fer" at the time,did the same thing with the assassination of the Reverand Martin Luther King JR.

On 9/10 Giuliani was washed up as a mayor.He is still washed up.He can't even figure out what kind of Republican he is let alone what kind of president!The NYPD and the NYFD have denounced him and all that he DOESN'T stand for and everyone else should too!

He represents the lowest form of politician,the parasitic opportunist that feeds off of the efforts of others and their tragedies to become a "STAR"!

Bill Maher brings his unique brand of political humor and brutal honesty to "The Situation Room," tonight.
The use of honesty in reference to Bill Maher has as much interity as MoveOn which protrayed a truthy ad.

Rudy is the easiest to beat out of all the Republicans.Two times divorcee.Thrice married.Abortion supporter.Pro gun control champion.He is very unpresidential with those smirks on his face during debates.He neglected the fire fighters before and after 911.He has no single record to run on except his deceits.He keeps mouthing that "we must remain strong" but gives no clue on how to win the war.By the way,how many of his kids are serving in the Armed Forces?The most decent guy to win the White House is Sam Brownback….James,Georgia
