		<description>Some facts:

1. McCain is the front-runner in national polls
2. McCain is the only candidate that beats hillary clinton in polls
3. McCain has 20 years of experience than a senator.


Some facts pertaining to Huckabee:
1.  He supports the concept of a flat tax, a tax which is likely to ruin the economy by taxing luxury items in a high degree.
2.  Economic Truth - Taxing something ALWAYS results in less spending of that item
    Economic Truth - Luxury items are the economies main stimulus, necessity items never fluctuate
   Economic Truth - taxing luxury items gives the american buyer incentive to purchase goods from foreign countries.
  Economic Truth - The flat tax will greatly injure the U.S. economy and send the already volatile economy into a deep recession resulting in the loss of jobs and trillions of dollars.
3.  Huckabee has little experience with the Senate and more experience as a pastor.  While i personally am a christian, so are 83 percent of americans, but i do know that not all of that 83 percent of americans are fit for the job of president.</description>

		<description>So you want to vote for Rudy? Be sure and ask him what kind of deal he made to get the support of Pat Robertson.  A man who promotes and preaches those &quot;family values&quot; supporting a candidate who has enough trouble living by those same &quot;family values&quot;?  That is reason enough not to vote for Rudy.</description>

		<description>It is disturbing to see that Florida, the state whose manipulated 2000 presidential election allowed the tragedy and travesty of the Bush era to occur and make arrogant incompetence in national government the norm, is possibly making a new error just as grievous to the future of America.....Giuliani is currently the favored Republican candidate here. But let&#039;s review some crucial points before making &quot;America&#039;s mayor&quot; a new blow to our already endangered future as a respected, prosperous and strong nation in this shrinking world.
 
  He loves to annoint himself repeatedly in the ashes of 9-11, as if he somehow equalled the rescuers during those horrific weeks...he has even publicly stated he worked the site as much and as long as the rescue workers....NOT! But let&#039;s not forget that New York&#039;s fire and police workers organizations have released scathing public letters speaking for their memberships, for his ignoring advice after the 1993 Trade Center attacks to update radio equipment for officers and firemen, and to NOT locate his command center AT the Trade Center. Hundreds from those organizations died needlessly on 9-11 due to the antiquated radio and communication systems he chose to leave in the field despite that crucial advice, and their surviving comrades have made their rage and loathing very well known. If he was such a powerful positive force in New York before and after 9-11, why do New York&#039;s police and firefighters hold him in such deep contempt? (Google their public letters and read for yourself).
 
  He echoes Bush in claiming to know what&#039;s best for America. But Giuliani showed his true colors by missing EVERY MEETING of the prestigious, Republican-led Iraq Study Group and instead attending fund raisers for his own campaign. When the Republican chairman told him to either start showing up or leave,he left.....to raise MORE money. When given a chance to get INFORMED about the extremely important matter of Iraq, and add his voice to the quest for solutions, he chose greed and personal ambition over duty to country. Not only does that decision reveal he is not genuinely interested in what is best for America, he is the arrogance and self serving  spirit of Cheney and Bush repackaged, and like Bush, he is totally dependent on &quot;9-11&quot; appearing in bold letters on the label. Before that horrible day Giuliani was a reviled mayor and Bush was hanging out at his Crawford &quot;ranch&quot; every chance he got, focusless, hacking at brush for the cameras to show what a &quot;regular guy&quot; he was.
 
   We would all be better off if &quot;America&#039;s mayor&quot; would spend his remaining days healing his wounded family so that his adult kids speak to him again, perhaps nurturing his third colorful marriage, and and chanting to himself his self-administered accolades for his &quot;heroism&quot; on 9-11. A man who can&#039;t unite his own family can hardly be counted on to help reunite our country divided by these last seven tragic years in our long history
 
  Please Florida...we already carry the burden of guilt for &quot;The Decider&quot; being Bin Laden&#039;s wildest dreams come true with our treasury, military forces, and world reputation tattered and gutted...why let Giuliani carry the torch for this incompetent and arrogant excuse for a presidency that our nation will take decades to recover from, if ever? If Giuliani is elected to the White House, Bin Laden can truly declare, with no help from Karl Rove, &quot;Mission Accomplished&quot;.</description>

		<description>Rudy without a doubt is the best GOP candidate and is the only one who has a shot to beat Hillary. Rudy is true leader and has excellent dipolomacy which is needed today to run our country. I might also add that he is extremely intelligent. 

I am a registered democratic, but there is no way in hell, I would vote for Hillary. She is a pure politician and as phony as they come with no real conviction.

I will be crossing party lines and voting for Rudy.</description>

		<description>No doubt Fla. will go for Guiliani. The Repubs there are too middle-of-the-road for Mitt or Thompson. Guiliani will get plenty of support from transplanted New Yorkers.</description>

		<description>Giuliani will give Florida a good reason to &quot;break&quot; him.  He can&#039;t debate on anything and nobody wants to hear 9/11, 9/11, 9/11.  Hopefully, he will show respect for 9/11 victims.</description>

		<description>Please Please Please do not vote for Giuliani.  This man is corrupt to the core, and he will wage an endless war.  He will take all of our God given rights in the name of fighting a battle that will never end.  I believe in defending America, not warmongering.

Only Ron Paul fights corruption, fights for our rights, and fights for our freedom.  Vote Ron Paul!</description>
