CNN

The Republican debate tonight was a real eye-opener for me tonight. Senator McCain came across as either a very stubborn liar or a very stupid old man or both.. And if the Senator thinks his time in the military qualifies him to be President, he really has a major problem. It is now evident what “old Washington” is about and it’s not good. I would have voted for Senator McCain before the debate tonight, but not now.

Giuliani endorses McCain, but Rupert is still P.O.'d at Rudy!

Not a real surprise; I (like most Giuliani supporters) always considere McCain the best second choice. McCain has the experience and character to be president, and any Democrat can't hold a candle to him. And yes, he may be more liberal than the far-out right wing wants to see, but the GOP can't win with a pure conservative (remember Goldwater?) unless he's a glamorous actor like Reagan. Only a moderate conservative has a chance, and certainly not a Romney who has changed his position on so many issues nobody knows WHAT they'd be voting for.

I'm sick and tired of how much coverage is on Obama. He is not the only candidate out there and he always initiate controversy and starts playing the victim when his opponents react.
Please CNN, start covering the other candidates as well and give us all the sides of the issues as well as where they stand on certain policies. And this is coming from a black male democrat.

Hooray for Nader if he does run. It will mean more diffusion of the liberal vote and less chance they will be able to elect a candidate. Bar-ry and Hillary have done a great job of that so far- way to go!

Restore the Republic. Restore the Constitution. Bring back fiscal sanity.
Vote your conscience.
Ron Paul 2008

Don't you just love the people who want to kick a guy in the pants as he leaves the race? The guy ran, the system worked the way it should and he was found to be wanting by the voters. He accepted the response and withdrew. Period. Kicking him as he leaves the race is just so predictable by the people now known for hating than governing...Dems.
You have to stand FOR something, folks. Nothing was ever advanced through hate!
If Rudy turns out to be the VP choice, you still have your vote.
Stop hating (that includes each other in your own party, too!!!)

Death to the two-party system.

Being a former New Yorker and living in the city when Guiliani was Mayor, I saw with my own eyes how he transformed the city. I have never seen any other politician take the bull by the horns like he did. Of course he made ememies along the way. You cannot make drastic changes with upsetting some people. I typically vote for Democratic candidates but a McCain/Guiliani ticket would certainly have my vote!

Well, I am not surprised that Giuliani endorsed McCain because they have something in common: Both LoverBoy giuliani and John McAmnesty have had adulterous affairs and dumped their wives for the mistresses.

Check out the sorry way McCain treated his first wife after having an affair with his mistress who is now his wife; and, you already know about LoverBoy Giuliani and the way he treated two wives before marrying his former mistress who is now his current wife.

Check out the story of McCain and his first wife and how he treated her.

Thank god. Rudy Giuliani definitely ran a less than half-hearted campaign. How disrespectful is it to his handful of supporters in other states to not campaign there? I truly believe he decided not to campaign anywhere when he realized he didn't have a chance anywhere.

McCain will keep us in Iraq 100 years or longer. Rudy will keep us in Iraq and without knowing where the military will come from he will go to war with Iran. These two together are the making of a nuclear war.

There won't be a Mccain/Giulinai ticket. Like one post said. Mccain needs to pull in the ultra conservative folks...but I may be wrong. Mccain's been winning without the majority of the conservatives. I believe the GOP party has changed (not changing) but has changed. It is no longer the ultra conservatives that dictates but the moderate voices that speaks louder. A Giuliani endorsement will seal the deal for Mccain and he will be the GOP nominee...without a doubt. Romney will win over some ultra conservatives but that won't be enough. Huckabee will stay in the race to keep the evangelicals from jumping ship to Romney.

I suspect this weeks ago. Mccain, Giuliani and Huck had a side pack to team up and propell one of the moderate voice/candidate to the top and it is working out as expected. The coalesting would have occured for anyone of them if they had the momentum in florida. The only reason Huck is still running is to keep the evangelicals away from Romney. Huck too is participating. This has always been a three team race....Fred, Romney and (mccain, rudy & huck). I had suspected this. It was brilliant!!

It's so obvious now. What's the one way for the Republican primary to get the top story on CNN? Hillary losing her primary.

VOTER FRAUD IN FLORIDA. POLLSTERS ALLOWED INDEPENDENTS TO REGISTER AS REPUBS AND HELP WIN THE STATE FOR MC-CANE. SMELLS LIKE TYPICAL DNC TO ME.

To tell you the truth in my opinion John McCain is another Bush,to continue a pointless war,we all have families and friends over in iraq and in afganistan,this part of the world has been in a constant violence for thousands of years,it has become a part of that country, i think that with careful planning U.S troops should be withdrawn and allow the i ragi goverment start making the kinda choices that will help there country suceed,now im no democrat or a republican or a liberal,im none of the above,but we keep hearing about all of these ideas from thse candidates,and we all know that action speaks louder then words,i have yet to see a candidate talk about what really needs to be addressed in this country and that the homeless population in this country,how are we gonna help them? america keeps tring to police the world when we have to many problems here,now im not saying that helping our allies and helping countries that need help,but the main center of our government course should be about the growth in our country,we keep hearing promises lets see action,now all the candidates have positive things to say,and this is a year where a black man or woman could be president,but that facts are until we loose the racial comments women vs man crap we are never gonna see the change our goverment needs... my personal opinion Bill Clinton needs to sit and let his wife run for president,and Obama really should step up to the plate and show what change he can do for our country,i believe Obama is the candidate to lead this country in the kinda change it needs,sorry to say but i dont see Senaator Clinton being the president of this country,thats my opinion, and i dont think she will be able to carry the weight of the responsibility of the presidency,she will fall under pressure,lets see what happens in the coming weeks to come.

McCain and Romney still support Bush, Bush Policies and Republican Ideals….
McCain will continue the Stay the Course in Iraq…
Do you want another four years of Bush Rule? DO you want to support the country of Iraq indefinitately?

This is the first time I have had respect for Mr. Guiliani's beliefs. At least he knows that the best man to "fix" this country is McCain. The White House is not about who has money, who believes in what faith, what color their skin is or whether they are male or female. It's about knowing what to do to make this country what it was and keep it that way. I'm sure McCain won't be reduced to "tears" when emotions run high in the White House.

hillary cliton : president u.s.a. 2008 !

If McCain wins, as a conservative I will sit out and not vote in November.

Ron Paul got my vote...

No thanks to the media that ignores him, the party that ignores him, and all the sheep that drank the Kool Aid, and voted for whomever the media told them were viable candidates.

Shake all the other candidates up and roll them out, and they are all the same. Only Ron Paul has a solid voting record that speaks for itself.

Ron Paul "08!!!

If McCain continues and gets the nomination, I won't be voting Dem OR Rep in November. This guy won FL because of endorsements secured by political favors given in the past. It's Washington politics all over again. McCain is like Bush: all he has to sell is fear to get people to rally behind him.

I'll either vote for a third party candidate or write in my wife again. She'd do a much better job than any of these buffoons.

I just hope that John McCain who I've supported all along does not bring Rudy into his administration, esp. as AG. Rudy missed his time in fascist Germany and the communist Russian dictatorship. He was born to late. John McMcain served his country with honor and needs to keep the independants like me satisfied. His best choice for VP, Chuck Hagel. Unbeatable ticket. Forget Rudy like his own kids have.

Alright. More votes for Ron Paul, the only conservative running for president!

McCain is going to kick Obama's behind.

I lost all respect for Obama when he made his trial lawyer comment. McCain is much more real. In 2008 it's going to be McCain-Guiliani!!

If Obama really cared about America, he would have become a trial lawyer. What’s so bad about them? They keep the average American safe from irresponsible people and corporations.

While it's nice to see the Republican race taking some shape, in the end I don't think it really matters. As a Republican, I don't think we have a shot at winning the White House in November, regardless of who the Dems nominate. I think the nation is ready for a change, and thanks to GW, that change will likely come in the form of a Democrat winning the White House. I think Bush has done irreparable damage to the GOP and they will likely be paying for it for a long time to come.

Ha-ha! "Franticness in the air, if you will?"
That's John Kerry, all right.

People THINK...Giuliani will not be McCain's running mate. it will be Huckabee. He needs Huckabee to attract the evangelical vote. There's a reason why Huckabee is staying in until Super Tuesday (and I predict through Texas). This is predictable for anyone really paying attention.

Next Hillary will start to complain that the voters in Florida and Michigan have been disenfranchised and will want their delagates restored. This is all so easy to figure out.

That being said...GO McCain!!!!!

Name me another big city major that would not have done what Rudy did during 911. Now, find me another major on the verge of being run out of his city on the rails if 911 didn't happen. Rudy was a one-trick pony opportunistic that had nothing to offer except he was on the job at the time. Big deal. He offered nothing. His first shot at the top position was his last, and anyone surprised by his withdrawal deserves a president as shallow as Rudy. Luckily, for all of us, he is gone. A footnote. Hey, who was mayor of Chicago during the fire? The mayor of San Francisco during the earthquake? Likewise, who was mayor of NYC during 911? In the future, we'll all look have to look it up to remember.

I could not be more disappointed with the outcome tonight. And to hear that Rudy is teaming up with McCain...well, say goodbye to the GOP.

McCain hopefully has the sense to keep the troops in Iraq and to continue to aggressively conduct the War on Terror, there are fewer and fewer individuals in this country who understand the long term stakes and strategy devised by the Neocons, I believe it is very likely McCain does. The success of the Bush administration in this needs to be maintained, and hopefully McCain will be the one for the job. Needless to say McCain if president, like Bush, will immediately find himself in two-front war against two enemies at once: not only the terrorists abroad but also the anti-Neocon liberals and their MSM propaganda machine at home whose success is only all too evident by the comments on these boards.

When I was in school I used to have a friend who would not study for quizes, tests, midterms and fail them big time. Then at finals she would study thinking she could still get an A. I used to think she would never make it in the real world. I was wrong. Now I know what people like my friend will end up being – mayors of big cities.

Good riddance. I guess his campaign, based on 9/11 exploitation, didn't work out as planned and actually turned off voters. Compared to all of the Republican candidates, he was by far the worst.

Good riddance, more room for real contenders who need more media attention, like Ron Paul.

I think McCain is the only shot the republicans have of getting the presidency. He could very easily beat Clinton or Obama.

"What if McCain, at the youthful age of 71, happens to get ill or kick the bucket after he gets he nomination?"

If he does it early enough, the party will place a replacement candidate on the ballots. Later, he will simply win posthumously and his VP choice will be the president. Believe it or not, the sort of thing you describe has happened before, and they worked out laws for just this sort of thing. In the meantime, McCain, who is only a hair older than Reagan was, is the strongest candidate we can field against what will be a very powerful Democratic candidate. Give me a buzz when Willard Romney a) polls wins over Clinton and Obama or b) decides to stop going by his middle name. My dad taught me never to trust a politician who's first name is an initial (W. Mitt Romney).

Please quit it with the Paul ad...........he was done before he started!

You know there`s a problem with the political system.. if McCain comes out on top..

Grandpa McCain & Rotten Rudy in bed together oh brother!
Warmongers unite! Pathetic!

Obama / Edwards 08

I agree with you Keith 865. This definately looks like a VP bid schmooz. Rudy is just another proof that he is too liberal to be a true Republican. John and Rudy would be a watered-down version of a true Republican ticket.
Don't count Mitt out though. If he continues his momentum, he will get more big states on Super Tuesday. If he gets the nod, he may pick a Southerner in the form of Senator Jim DeMint, from South Carolina. Keep your eyes and ears tuned-in.

Well, now the only logical candidate really is Huckabee!!

As a life-long democrat and New Yorker, and knowing what Rudy is really like, he was the last person in the race I would vote for. In a race between McCain and Hillary, I would 'cross the isle' for the first time and vote McCain. Between McCain and Obama I am torn in half. Actually, I hope the nominiees are Romney and Hillary, because then Bloomberg would run. He is the best person willing to do the job. (And maybe Obama as VP. THAT would be some ticket!)

I thought he already did that a couple of debates ago. Isn't that what the photo shows?

Ok – Hillary took Florida – can you journalists (John King, for example) downgrade her win any more? It's so obvious you are anti-Hillary and keep puffing up the already puffed-up Obama! I hope she takes the nomination just to see the sour look on your face. Obama-Rama is like watching a televangelist – taking us to mountaintop and blah, blah, blah. It's got all the elements – male authority figure needing to be the center of atttention with grandiose statements reflecting saviour status and the chant, the mantra – this one happens to be change. Yuck!

Thank goodness. One more step for preventing Mitt Romeny to be the republican nominee. Thank Goodness....

Rob, first things first. 9/11 was truly an American tragedy and no one can dispute that. But to compare the leadership Rudy displayed (put on a hardhat and get the photo) after the despicable destruction of the World Trade Center microscopically pales when compared to the devastation that New Orleans suffered and is still suffering from. I mean, several buildings blown up versus an entire metropolitan area underwater for over 3 weeks? And NYC did not have to wait 3 days for the federal government to respond, probably because Nagin and Blanco are democrats. We Louisianians need look no further than across our border with Mississippi to understand how partisanship works. Don't get me wrong, Im a republican and I apologize for voting for George Bush in the last election and I did not vote for Gov. Blanco. But your comments are absurd, to say the least. Rudy is just like every other candidate still out there in the Republican Party, a power hungry egotist, except one. Thats right, the one who has had the same platform for his entire career and has the voting record to prove it. Take back our constitution and give us back our personal liberties. Join the Ron Paul revolution and make our government FOR the people as it was intended to be.

If McCain wins the Republican nomination, I'd like to see him choose Huckabee for VP to balance out the ticket. I like them both. A combination like that would be hard to beat.

Rudy used 9/11 for his own gain.
The people saw that.
I'm glad he is done.
McCain is another jerk.
They deserve one another.

Hey Rudy.....all that 9/11 9/11 9/11 9/11 really helped your campaign didn't it?

When you were the mayor of New York City, you had an approval rating in the 30% area and did every thing that you could to destroy the working man. Now go find Freddy Thompson and crawl under the same rock....you putz!!!!!

Two comments. Roland seems like a very angry yong man. I don't think hewill last long on CNN.
Secondly: I've been writing about this all day. No one talks abou it. Obama broke the pledge of not campaigning in Florida. He did! He did! By airing his commerciakls in Florida definitely was a campaign.
Please comment

McCain always struck me as having a lot more personal integrity than Rudy Giuliani, both from watching the two debate, and reading some statements of those who worked with Giuliani in NYC goverment. So, I'm not sad to see him go.

What do you all think?

Well, so much for helping the Economy.
Florida, you idiots, McCain doesn't know what the lkjh he's doing with the economy and is too freaking old to be the President!!!!
You IDIOTS!

I like Rudy, but quite honestly, he wasted valuable donated money, and the time of hard working people. His strategy of putting all his eggs into one basket should give you an idea of what kind of lame brain strategies he would employ if he was president.

RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08 RON PAUL 08

'nuff said!

Rudy's plan worked perfectly – you only thought he was in Florida campaigning all this time, he was really here looking for a retirement home like all the other New Yawkers. Thank God the primary is over, now all of these weasels can get out of the state for awhile – it's finally safe to answer the phone, check the mail, and open the front door again...

All this talk about McCain being too old to be president – wasn't ronny ray gun about 800 years old when he became prez? He looked like Jack Palance's oooooooooooolder brother – talk about a saddlebag with eyes! Duh haw duh haw!

The CNN pundents are acting like Floridians don't watch Televsion.. The Democratic candidates... may not have personally campaigned there.... but the country and your network included has been subjected to every step and misstep of the candidates.... you can't honestly think their personal presence in a state in this day and age of the media and internet that Floridians could not make up their minds and vote based on that... I have.... I live in California and will probably not meet either candidate and still know who i would vote for...further more.... Floridians should be insulted by the commentary and if i was them i would watch another channel...CNN is starting to sound more like FOX everyday....NOT good

Congrats to McCain. We need more moderates like him in our country. Hopefully he will become our next president.

BILL SCHNEIDER !

Could you tell why it is so important if conservatives like McCAIN from the point of view of:

1) the primaries, as they are by far, as already shown not the majority in the party
and even these state by large majority that McCain is the only capable to win the
elections and therfore, if he is nominated, would vote them anyway ?? (unless
they prefer that by not voting, they elect OBAMA and even worse, Clinton ??)

2) the election, as if McCain tries to hard to attract conservatives, he will
repulse independent and transferred Dem voters which would not be willing to
vote their own candidates due to the bad blood created in the primaries, as well
as still existing misogenic or racial prejudices ???

John McCain – Condeleeza Rice: It's The Moderate Republican, Democrats and Independents Can Tolerate, Black, Women Ticket.

FYI: TOWN HALL REPORT PROVES WE SPEND MORE MONEY IN ONE YEAR FOR ILLEGALS THAN FOR ONE YEAR FOR THE WAR IN IRAQ.

A WAR COSTS AMERICANS LESS THAN ILLEGALS AND MCCAIN / LIBERMAN KNOW IT.

I think it's time to have an age limit on the voters. People over 60 should not be allowed to vote. It's too bad that the baby boomers consist of a large portion of our population. That's the only reason why McCain will win! I figured that people older than 60 would be much smarter than they are turning out to be. This election will be a joke if McCain and Clinton are running against each other. It should be Obama and Romney at the end, with Romney winning! It's sad that our country is voting for the same old same old and not for change! Romney or Obama would be a breath of fresh air.

Less candidates means the choice of AMNESTY or NO AMNESTY becomes even clearer. The soft on illegals bit worked in Florida with the Latino vote, but it won't work anywhere else.

Romney will be the nominee because he believes in conservative principles, both personally and politically. McCain is a fraud and liberal.

Clinton / Mccain Ticket is probably more accurate. They are two of a Kind, or Mccain and Kennedy is more of what I expect. At all cost , Mccain will run with his Real Party as Vp A DEMOCRAT.

bwahah seeya later 9u11iani!

I hope McCain gets the nomination. Firstly because he is the best of a bad bunch, and secondly, he's been beat so many times in presidential primaries, it would really warm my heart to see him win this one ^_^ Course, he'll be smashed by the democratic nominee, but still =)

Romney is still my man! He has the experience, leadership, and morals we need. If McCain is the nominee- my vote is for Obama.

I need someone new to Washington who will mix it up, not same ol', same ol'.

Romney- we support you overseas!

Sean Hannity's favorite dropping out... I guess America is finally back on the right tracks.

You can't get much more liberal than McCain/Giuliani. So regardless of whether or not Mitt or Mac win they can't beat Hiliary or Obama. The only real republican running is Ron Paul. Truth, freedom, prosperity. An intelligent statesman who understands the constitution and monetary policy. Wouldn't THAT be a nice change.

What if McCain, at the youthful age of 71, happens to get ill or kick the bucket after he gets he nomination? I can't believe that no one is thinking about just how old this geazer is.

Rudy really wants any boot licking job. Its great to see the pain begin for the Repulicans.Get used to counting the years.

What Ghouliani never, ever mentioned was the day BEFORE his favorite day.

His poll numbers were in the dumps, and many of us New Yorkers came to see him as a snide, lisping bully. But 9/11 changed all that, and he gladly donned the mantle of 'America's Mayor'. Even Ms Nathan must be sick to death of those three little poisonous numbers by now.

I don't care what he does now, but I'd prefer he stay out of NYC- he's not welcome here anymore.

No way.
If McCain gets the nod, then he should choose someone other than Giuliani.

How can you conservatives say you would vote for Hillary or Obama over Mccain? The number one priority of the next presidency is security. You would trust Obama and Hillary who would cut our military spending to the bone over John Mccain who supports the Iraq war and would be tough on terrorism. You would betray our brave soldiiers in Iraq and Afghanistan by letting Hillary and Obama pull our troops out before the missions is complete?

Glad to see that FL. helped end Rudy and Mitts chances~!~! Only one true choice for V.P........................Mike Huchabee!!! The far right (True Christian Right)
Which I am one, will only vote Mccain (Great man ... War Hero and man not afraid to buck the system) If he has a strong ( Values) V.P !!!!
MCCAIN/HUCKABEE 08!!!! A TICKET WE CAN BACK AND BE PROUD OF

Rob, Rob, Rob,

"We want a change and not the same old clan back again in Washington."

McCain ,albeit his name suggests otherwise, is NOT part of any clan. He has been an independent minded Republican, as ALL Republicans should be. He is the greatest umpire because he always calls it as HE sees it despite possibly being booed by the Republican Political Elite.

Go John and Rudy 08, 12!!!

Great, the two most liberal Republicans EVER are teaming up! I guess Americans really are for AMNESTY after all! I can't believe the Republicans may actually elect Hillary Clinton by nominating Jose McCain! All she will have to do is play the "we will stay in Iraq for 100 years" clip and the Democrats win with the largest landslide EVER! She will see this as her mandate to raise taxes, and spend, spend, spend! McCain – "We went to Washington in '94 to change Washington, but Washington changed us." HAHAHAHA

"an American" ~ you are worried about being disliked by the world? by whom – France? Don't worry about it. Open your eyes and look at the big picture.

You people are so off base with your Giuliani bashing. The man is a hero for his courage and leadership during the aftermath of 9/11 when we were all scared to death we were going to be attacked over and over. Compare that to how the gov and mayor of New Orleans responded to their disaster. Add the fact that he brought the mob down to its knees and cleaned up the streets of NYC. He had the best resume to be president, I hope he becomes VP because he's a guy who gets things done.

Doesn't matter - Clinton beat them all! Republicans can vote their hearts out - they're going down

David, you are sooooooooooo right!
"A McCain/Giuliani will make for a very strong republican ticket going into the general election. It will be very difficult for the Clinton machine to overcome. Both of these republicans will compliment each other very well."

A vote for anyone besides Ron Paul is a wasted vote.

Wow one weirdo supporting another weirdo. No surprise here. How can anyone vote for McCain hes so ooooooooooooold? Honestly the man is over 70.

Good for Rudy that he knows when to back out. Hint, hint...others in both parties should also follow suit. As far as endorsing anyone though....why? Why not let people decide for themselves? And hopefully they will do so.

I cannot understand why people are endorsing someone who is beyond retirement age. Isn't he 72? I'm not a Chuck Norris fan, but he's right–McCain is too old to be prez. He'd be 77 when inaugurated and 77 by the end of his first term.

Romney is much more qualified!

McCain and Giuliani running together!? Heaven help us all!!!

Dumb people should not be allowed to vote.

OMG – the Juan McCain mantra has started already and it frightens the beegeebers out of me! If Juan McCain goes on to become the OLDEST nominee EVER for President…I will either be throwing my vote away entirely, by voting for an independent or I may jump on the Obama Band Wagon (…please break my fingers for typing that!) as an opportunity to produce some kind of change.

God forbid McCain becomes the nominee…because I will not be voting for him based solely on his ridiculous stance on immigration…and nothing else wonderful about the man will change my opinion.

Can you imagine a 71 year old man running against Obama????? McCain is dead on looks alone….Obama will just smile his way into the White House on a wing, a prayer and no substance. I can see McCain now in the debates….sucking on a bottle of Geritol and not water. OH PLEASE…..I can't take it anymore……

Thoroughly disillusioned in Sheridan Oregon……

This should tell you all you need to know about McCain.

CONGRADULATIONS NOW YOU HAVE TO WIN OTHER BELIEVES OF YOUR COUNTRYMEN. IT IS MY PERSONAL BELIEF THAT YOU NEED TO DISTANSE YOURSELF FROM IDEAS OF GRAY AREAS. TO KNOW WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS ABSOLUTLY WRONG. YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE AND YOU NEED TO LET US KNOW YOU UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE.

So now that Giuliani is out, does this mean you guys will stop inviting Paul to debates?

First things first. Tonight's Florida McCain victory doesn't seal the deal. It will be real interesting on Super Tuesday and, with Romney's deep pockets, he will rise again.

Don't be so fast to declare a McCain/Giuliani ticket. The running mate for McCain was behind him on the stage. If he gets the Republican nomination watch for a McCain/Martinez or McCain/Crist ticket.

If Romney becomes the third "comeback kid" and wins the nomination watch for Condoleeza Rice to join him to create the Romney/Rice ticket.

Obama 08!

Of course Rudy Giuliani is going to drop out! Rudy Giuliani was sent in to the "game" to split a percentage of the votes in Florida specifically from the other incompetent candidates who would never win in the general election.

Rudy Giuliani did what he was set out to do now he is going home.

BTW, I am not a supporter of any of these candidates just an observer of the political circus.

Good-bye GOP. I won't vote for Mr. McCain.

I wasn't surprised to see this. I am a Giuliani supporter, and have always thought he and McCain work well together. I would love to see the two of them as running mates!

If McCain would win and had to run against Clinton, I will vote 3rd party, at least i can say that I never voted for either of them.
If Romney wins and runs against Clinton, I would vote Romney, even as a democrat.
We want a change and not the same old clan back again in Washington.

Obama/Edwards for 2008!!

This country does not need another one of George Bush's followers. Let's hope that the American people choose someone who actually thinks.

John McCain and Rudy Guiliani have said nothing about how much the rest of world dislikes us (because of Bush). It's time for a change in leadership.

Even though I'm an independent, I can't help but choose someone besides a republican. Let's hope the American people remember what Bush did. How can we forget? How can we forget the 3900+ people we've lost from his war in Iraq?

How could anyone have wanted rudy fooliani as a president? This is a man that was married to his SECOND COUSIN. I've heard of keeping it in the family but this is just nasty. This means he was having sex with either his mother's biological female cousin or his father's biological female cousin. Ick!

Two million voters in Democratic Florida Primary. Hillary has 150,000 more votes than McCain. There's the Elephant in the room being completely ignored by the media once again. Who cares about Giuliani.

If McCain is the best we've got, this life-long Republican is voting Democrat.

Obama 2008!

Clinton/Edwards ticket for 2008 and 2012......boo, hss

Now Rudy gave an inspirational speech about the "better good" if you will...a time to recognize it. Very appropriate.

Hmmmm wouldn't it be nice if ALL the dirty politics stopped...I mean just completely stopped. No distractions...no anger...no name calling....just get down to the basics of what it will take to run this country.

Something the democrats could really benefit from when they try and select their nominee.

Mitt Romney is the Only Viable Candidate for President.
Romney is young and vital and understands well the Global Economy and Foreign Affairs, regardless of what falsehoods McCain manufactures about him.
McCain does not have the vision for the Change needed in this Country. McCain says the same words, different arrangement, same facts and same reasons that he was spouting 8 years ago. We're sick of his broken record. McCain is stuck in a rut and this country must change. Change can happen only under the leadership of a young, dynamic leader with the experience of Mitt Romney.

I wanted to vote for Rudy today, but I knew it would be wasted, so I voted for McCain in an effort to make sure Romney didn't get the win. I pray that McCain wins the election in November, and that Rudy is asked to take on a role of importance. Rudy has depth of understanding on all issues. He is confident and creative. He gets things done.

(Romney has the persona of a game show host.)

I really can not fathom how people could consider John McCain "liberal", except for the fact that Hillary is clearly a Republican in a democratic (small d) pantsuit, which makes the label apt by an improperly-situated comparison.

That's clearly the only reason they're both doing so well – a lot of potential voters fear swinging too far to the Right again (look what that did for the last 7 years), but too many likewise worry about the consequences of moving back to the Center.

...The Center. There hasn't been a vocal "Left Wing" in the U.S. since FDR. Kucinich tried, and all he got for his efforts was Keebler Elf comparisons.

I'm not sure, there have probably been worse, but I think this will go down as one of the worst presidential campaigns in history. And it's a shame because Giuliani basically had this nomination in the bag, from my vantage point anyway. I'm a Democrat, but he was actually center enough that I could have actually voted for him.

McCain has been so nasty and belittling to Mitt Romney that he is no longer a Presidential Choice for decent, high minded, respectful citizen voters.. Not only is McCain a total disappointment, but his true character has shown itself through his snide laugh, malicious and digusting manner used against Mitt Romney. This performance has made McCain a disgrace and disrespected by the Republican Party. McCain is about the Republican equivalent of Bill Clinton. Both men have shown their true lack of character, and McCain has treated Romney in the same manner that B.Clinton belittled Obama. Voters don't like this behavior and will not accept nor tolerate it. McCain is no longer a respected candidate, and he has now stooped to the low level of a greedy, lying politician. McCain no longer respects the Truth and is now content to Fabricate Bogus Stories about his opponent so that he will look more qualified. With this major fault, McCain has proven that he is NOT presidential material nor does he deserve the Republican nomination. McCain's disdain and disrespect of Mitt Romney only makes McCain a smaller man than he already is. McCain is obviously jealous of Mitt Romney....and he should be. There is much more of a campaign to go, and who knows if McCain will really get to the finish line. Let's hope NOT!

I can't believe Florida blew it, and I can't BELIEVE that we're taking McCain seriously. I hope America enjoys adopting socialized medicine and screwing up the Middle East, because it looks like the Democrats are coming in. I don't think we should allow people in Florida to vote anymore. It causes too much trouble.

For you guys asking why it matters who Giuliani endorses, Rudy is a moderate republican regardless of what he was saying in the south. In more liberal states Rudy would have received a lot of the conservative independant votes. Now Rudy will campaign to have those votes go to McCain. It is a powerful endorsement.

A McCain/Giuliani will make for a very strong republican ticket going into the general election. It will be very difficult for the Clinton machine to overcome. Both of these republicans will compliment each other very well.

Yea seriously, Ron Paul is the one to vote for in the republican party, but he doesnt get much attention. He doesnt attack other candidates, he has tons of experience, and good stances on all issues... i think people dont vote for him because they think he cannot win, so they dont want to "waste" their vote. Too bad we cant have all states have caucuses and primaries at the same time so the "momentum" phenomenon would die.

Well I hope this gives Huckabee voters a reason not to support John McCain. Maybe Huckabee isn't as good of friend as he had hoped.

Good riddance.

Gooood bye
Ruuuudy Tuesday!
Who could hang a name on you
When you change with every new day....
Sure are gonna miss you!

This is the death of the Republican party as we know it.

Whatever it takes to keep Romney out. That seems to be everyone's strategy. Well, if Romney doesn't stay in the race, there will be no true conservatives left.

I think McCain and Romney will be a good pair for P/VP. McCain brings good vision on national security and immigration while Romney on economy.

Look at all this hate for Giuliani. You guys talk like he's the one who flew the plane to the Twin towers. What a bunch of disgraceful people.

How is McCain more liberal than Mitt Romney, who supported abort ion, reckle ss spending, and sociali zed medicine when he was governer of MA? The man who was apat hetic towards the whole hom osexual marriage debate in that state?

Can any of you "real conservat ives" explain that?

rudy ran the worse campaign I have ever seen

If Huckabee is McCain's V.P., I may reconsider my vote for McCain.
A McCain/Romney or McCain/Rudy ticket would work for me.

Huckabee has no place in the White House. He is a great minister with terrific music talent. I will vote for anybody but Hillary and Huckabee.

Of all candidates, I admire Ron Paul the most. He is a reluctant candidate. He is running to serve the country and for nothing else.

Sorry but Giulani had nothing other than the 9.11 under his belt. Even as a VP I am not sure if he'll be able to bring anything to the table, mainly economic growth and foriegn policy.

So, what's Rudy going to do with the $47M he raised? He'll pocket a pretty profit for his half-hearted effort.

I will not, under any circumstances, vote for John Mccain in the general election. this will be the first time I have not voted for the republican nominee. where is my party? I am a Romney supporter. But, if McVain is the nominee, I will vote 3rd party if possible. Hopefully Ron Paul runs as a third party candidate. I dont care for him. But I will vote against mccain. I find him disgusting. the hell with the gop

"John McCain will win an overwhelming victory in general elections if Obama gets the Democratic nomination since many democrats will win for McCain and not for Obama! If Clinton gets the nomination, that would make a very interesting election that could swing either way!" ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND??? HAVE YOU PAID NO ATTENTION TO THE NUMBER OF DEMOCRATIC AND REPUBLICAN BACKERS OBAMA HAS? I DONT KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE IN THE COUNTRY-BUT IT SURE ISN'T NEAR ME. THERE IS AN ENORMUS REDPUB LICANS FOR OBAMA GROUP OUT THERE. HIS MOMENTUM IS HUGE IN MOST STATES AND DRAWING LOTS OF NEW PEOPLE EVERY DAY.

It is very interesting that everyone is jumping on McCain now. Romney is not even an option, the Democrats will use the flip flop card on him so easily it wont even be a race. We (republicans) should be most devoted to keeping the White House. Compromise is necessary to keep it and John McCain is that compromise. He will beat any Democratic candidate. I hope he picks Huckabee for his VP so there is appeal for the south and for northeast independents and republicans.

McCain is unelectable - I HOPE!

One winner-take-all primary by 4% and this thing is over? I think not.

Despite CNN and other media outlets desires to decide the election for the people, (e.g. "McCain cements front runner status"), this thing is wide open.

I think MITT ROMNEY can still come back as he really just needs to rip into
McCain for being an utter phony who is unqualified to serve.

I lost all respect for McCain the so-called "maverick" when he brought his
whine to the GOP convention in 2004 solely to remain relevant. His
complicity in keeping King George on the throne was shameful.

He's not the anti-Christ, but he is the anti-Dobbs.

Give us what we deserve:

Obama v. Romney

One loser endorses another loser – BFD!

A McCain Huckabee ticket would be a winner. McCahin gives you independents and neo-cons and Huckabee can garner social conservitives. The old time conserviatives will stay home but they haven't had anyone to be happy about since Pat Buchanan bolted in 2000. Ron Paul is the last bastion for us Jurasic Cons who still care about America first.

VOTE FOR RON PAUL.

Buh-bye, Rudy!

Rudy:
Thanks for endorsing McCain!
Also, thanks for making NYC livable again!

McCaine / Giuliani 2008 Get ready Libarals cause we are going to pound you for the next 4 years. I hope it is McCain and Giuliani! Nothing would be better for America... God Bless them both...

I'm not sure how much wilder this can get. Guiliani endorsing McCain. And Huckabee a possibility for vice president???? MSM is setting us up for a huge democrat win with these canidates.

RON PAUL 08

A vote for anyone else is a vote for globalism and a poor american dollar

McCain/guiliana vs clinton/hussien Go republicains..........

lol. i always laugh when republicans claim freedom of speech when it comes to finance reform. you guys are the same people who think that bong hits 4 jesus t-shirt is an outrage. no way the mack lets rudy sneak into washington, at least not as vp

Wasn't John Cain considered a treasonist for giving the vietkong intel when he was held POW?

Dear Republican Party,

Sen. McCain is the noblest Republican in the field and the party should feel lucky to have him. People will vote for McCain despite immigration (who honestly thinks we can deport 12 million people?) and campaign finance (who cares other than the politicians?). He has the best chance to beat any either Clinton or Obama. He is a war hero and he appeals to independents. What more do you want? Do they honestly believe that conservatives will not show up to the polls or even worse vote liberal? Here's a tip for the you guys: Run a candidate that everyone likes and he'll probably win.

Sincerely,

Your Voice of Reason

P.S. – Remember that state the won the 2000 election for you, well the "conservative base" there just elected the most "liberal" Republican in the field.

Hey, folks. Let's not ignore Mitt Romnney and his still-strong team, second highest number of delegates ( he had the most for 3 weeks, but CNN and the liberal press never acknowledged it.) Since McCain, and Guliani are so close to Hillary and Obama in philosophy( and friendship) , we need Mitt to help the country get a fresh start in Washington. Super Tuesday will be a better test of Mitt's, ( and McCain's) ,staying power. Money and organization count for a lot!!! Hillary is on CNN right now saying she will undo several Executive orders to liberalize parts of the Patriot act and "restore" freedoms and balances!!!Heaven help us.!!! We need a strong President like Mitt to "right the ship" in Washington, and get the economy going again. Go Mitt!!

I have voted Republican since 1984, and there is no way in hell that I will ever vote for John McCain. The Democrats will have Two people running this year, 3 if you count the VP on the Dem side, and 4 if Rudy teams up with McIdiot. Has to be a dream come true for all of my Democrat friends.
See you in 2012!

If this is the future of the Republican party, I want out!

I been Republican since I was able to vote I will vote for Obama or Clinton though over McCain he will bring the party down more then Bush did.

Rudy made a miscalculation in not campaigning in the earlier caucuses/primaries, but I think after the dirty deed of the NYT, he lost interest in the game. He withstood too much crap from the extreme liberal NYorkers while mayor and was not up to the same. People have no idea the mess Rudy inherited when he became mayor. It was anarchy. He made NYC respectable again.

GO McCAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One down one to go: Now McCain has basically won the republican nomination; I am waiting for Obama to win the democratic nomination.

Once these two great spirits are the only two left running against each other, whichever one of them lose, America wins.

Mitt and Fred has a nice ring. Sounds American to me. John and Rudy sounds like two old friends, and Mike and Ron, where left in the cold.

I have seen so many people leave comments stating "It is a shame because Rudy is so respectable." Yep a guy who cheats on his wife and has admitted to using hard drugs is just the man we need in the White House. As if things were not bad enough in Washington. McCain may be dead by the time the primary's are over, and Huckabee is so "I love Christ so vote for me" it makes me sick.

God help this nation if Clinton or Obama are elected.

Those who are referring to the Obama AD in Florida are truley ignorant!!!!! This is very serious; most of these people are so ignorant it makes some of us SICK!!

The AD is by CNN; this AD is running and has been doing so in almost ALL the big states. I am avid viewer of CNN in TX and have been seeing this AD since SC.

Wake up people; other nations truly and correctly laugh at us in the US because most of us are so uninformed, ignorant.. you name it!!!

When I run into so many dumb ones on university campuses, I think the public might be better off!!! But events like this one, and the cheering for Hillary tells me that some of the people out there are equally ignorant and quite uneducated!!! God Bless us all…

Perhaps the state of Florida should simply stay out of this process, given that they simply DO NOT FOLLOW BASIC, I MEAN BASIC RULES!!!

This will come back to hunt the Democrats as the Republicans will use this so-called win of Hillary against them in the general election:

PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO REGARD FIR LAWS AND RULES OF THIS NATION!!!!

Clinton wins hands down. All the way to democratic convention. It is not a beauty contest as it will be a insult to 2+ million democratic voters in florida.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Finally we can be certain that MR. RUDY GUILLIANI never was a "Front Runner". Indeed was the clear candidate for the "Media". Well, now the reality is that there is no way to evade RON PAUL this time. Congressman Paul deserves your attention since is the ONLY candidate that when elected as President of United States will respect "The Constitution". Took time but Mr. Paul but you will make history.

People is looking for inspiration? With Obama ok, wait till more people sees and reads Dr. Paul platform.

Joan Daniel

Giuliani for President? Was that bully really serious? Just get lost from the political scene.

I see Rudy is trying to get the VP slot! McCain/Giulliani 08 ???

I think McCain/Huckabee might be more compelling. They seem to like each other and it throws a bone to the far right who will have to swallow hard over McCain in the interest of keeping the White House for the GOP. Plus Huckabee's stump and debate skills will provide a lighter touch and allow McCain to be the straight man and come in with the "But seriously folks..." zingers.

Rudy seemed to have caught Fred Thompson Disease – wanted it but did not want to work hard enough to get it.

What a great come back story for McCain – the pundits were trying to bury him last year. Congratulations to him and all his supporters!

I am an Obama backer and McCain worries me the most. I have been quietly hoping the GOP would nominate Romney who would be much easier to beat.

McCain will pick Kay Bailey Hutchinson as his vice-presidential running mate.

Whats going on with Huckaberry does he have a chance if he only had more time for people can get to know him,how do they pick a vice persedent is it the person that comes in second.We dressed in the same colors today if you were next to mr we would look like a couple .I went to my sisters and I was watching it there I told her I was going to vote this year I am going to try to get her to vote it would be her first time to mabey my whole family should do it together but I wont inflence them in there vote I'm not going to tell them I'm voting for Edwards on the side and Huckeberry on the other Who is your favorit Anderson or you can't say I understand that for people don't vote just because you voting for them . I wouldn't that would go against me as an independent voter I do not care who indoses any one that does not change my prospective on things if it did then I would of voted for Obama because of Oprahs indorsement well I am back at the library know and am going to head home

McCain is just a cheap copy of Hillary. I served in the military for 22 years and in combat and earned many awards but McCain does not impress me. I can't find to many differences between him and his captiol hill cronies. I remember the savings and loan scandal ...yeah I know he was exonerated, but like the Senator says he doesn't know much about finance or the economy. Just the kind of guy we need right now.

Romney is just another flip flop'n John Kerry. We were all over John Kerry being for the war before he was against the war. So why I we being hypocritical about Romney and his I was for abortion, gay marriage, and more liberal then T. Kennedy before I was against them and running for president.

My wife is shocked that I have voted straight party Repulican for 27 years and am now probably going to vote (hopefully) for Obama and if not him Hillary.

God Save Us All.

Endorse McCain? Might as well. Neither of them have seen the constitution in years. Romney is the best leader and actually has a shot at beating the Democrats. I don't think McCain can...he didn't before, and though he's sounding more like a Democrat everyday now, I don't think he can pull a national win. Nobody does. Can Thompson throw his votes to Romney, since he dropped out AFTER many of us had already voted for him in Florida? I'm still pulling for Romney. He's the only true Republican left.

McCain/Guiliani ticket cannot and will not match against Obama-Clinton / Clinton-Obama ticket.

Democrats 2008

Rudy's trying for the VP, but Huckabee would be a more attractive ticket for Republican Voters. Rudy has no delagates for the convention, so has no real power. He and McCain have been together since 911, they actually like one another. Rudy doesn't want to be left out either. Thats another reason he is going to support the Republicain Presidential Nominee John McCain.

Prediction:
McCain/Guiliani ticket...that mightbeat anything the Dems could offer up...

A McCain/Giulliani ticket would make Hillary and her vp pick look conservative!!!! Rush Limbaugh has to be puking right now!

I'm going to be sick...

If I was McCain I'd say "Thanks but No thanks".

An endorsement from Rudy can only drag him down a point or two in the polls.

Good luck to that...you would a VP who can add value. Giuliani is of no value since McCain has/is going to pick up everything he was supposed to. Huckabee is playing his cards right...if he can pick up a bunch of states in the South/Mid-West, he will clinch it for sure!

I don't think that would be a great decision seeing as Rudy did so poorly in all contests. Rudy was several points above all Rep. candidates in a national poll just a couple of months ago and now he is about to drop out before Super Tues! I think a more logical ticket would be Mccain/Huckabee. I guess Mccain/Giulliani could happen, but i think it's highly doubtful!

2 corrupt pieces of crap instead of just one. GREAT.

Maybe... i doubt McCain will let him get in... he might end up choosing someone from under the radar... maybe McCain will choose his co-chair for his campaign Tim Pawlenty, the Republican Governor from Minnesota.

Yeah, right... Giuliani will HURT McCain's campaign...

I like how McCain's campaign managers left him mid-season, and he's now number 1.

The Republican's had their chance. They don't deserve another.

One New York front-running candidate down, one to go. lol

Thank you, Florida, for seeing off Mussolini incarnate.
Now we are preparing our thank you to the state(s) that will drive the last nail in the coffin of the Clintons THIRD TERM dynasty bid.

VP? No way. Rudy wants to be first lady!!

I would love to see that happen. Perhaps Giuliani could attract some staunch conservatives?

McCain and Giullani are the only Republicans I could possibly vote for. A McCain/Giuliani ticket may tip the scales. If the GOP nominates any of its other knuckleheads I will take it as their way of telling me that they want my vote to go to whichever doofus the Dems pick.

I doubt it. Since McCain is so old, people will be looking at his running mate closely. He is not popular enough.

No, McCain will choose Lindsay Graham. Graham is smart, articulate, and has solid conservative credentials. Giuliani will get nothing from a deal. Any "deals" will torpedo the nomination – McCain is running on character. Rush Limbaugh will hold his nose and vote for Lindsay Graham.

Thank God Giuliani is gonna quit...another one bites the dust...

Time to go. Back out Rudy. Let's move forward with a winning team. The people are speaking.

9/11 – 9/11 – 9/11 – 9/11 = That was Giulliani's campaign.

I am glad he is out (Or hopefully, soon will be).

I was thinking Sec. of Homeland Security. He can squeal 9/11 until his voice gives out.

Rudy is a loser! "America's mayor" is a has been! Republicans have no chance in 2008! Americans can't tolerate anymore neoCONS!

Giulliani brings NOTHING to the ticket as VP. He is more liberal than McCain, and won't unify the party. Rudy is just trying to keep a little more attention on himself, just like Kennedy's endorsement of Obama.

Big disappointment for Rudy. He is, by far, the most respectable candidate out of all of them. Maybe not electable....but respectable. McCain would benefit by having Rudy on board.

Good! The move makes sense, get the two moderates' voters together behind one man.

And I thought Dukakis ran a poor campaign...

An endorsement for McCain from Giulliani would be a good enough reason NOT to vote for John McCain. Romney is a charade and Huckabee's not all there. Not much left for the Republicans. Enough of these "want to rule and exploit the world" while we line our pockets and our friends pockets while we sell out our fellow Americans and send their children to war Republicans. Why are Romney's boys not in uniform?
Because they send someone else to do the dirty work.

Say it's not so... always someone else's sacrifice.
Obama 08

I doubt a McCain/Giulliai ticket. Because it would be unbalanced. McCain will need someone that will help draw more conservatives in.

With only 2 delegates to his name, who cares if he endorses McCain?

Clinton/Edwards ticket for 2008 and 2012.

No.

Doesn't matter. There will not be another Republican in office. Period.

"Mccain/Giulliani ticket anyone?" Wow, that would be disgusting!

no way dude same principals

Does this put him in line for what always might have been his goal: to be a vice presidential?

Well if we have to choose a liberal, I will now vote for a true liberal Democrat in the Coming Nov Elections.

McCain's Win in Florida and him becoming the Nominee is the loss of hope for True Republicans.

Nah, there's going to need to be some fence-mending after the primaries. Giuliani is way too much in the McCain camp of the party. McCain is going to need to reach out to some other wing of the party. I'd keep my eyes on Huckabee or possibly even Fred Thompson to shore up support to the right of him.

I'm not voting Republican, BUT.....

I'm proud of the fact that people saw through Giuliani and realized he is full of hot air. He had no substance, and was running on the 9/11 image; he is an opportunist.

I may not agree with the Republican contenders, but I do not want that the wrong candidates end up on the general election ballot.

The voters is in this country are apparently getting more involved in the political process after all, and that is a very good thing.

It does not really matter who will be on that ticket.

I wish CNN had not cut off Clinton's talk to her supporters. We have however, been sitting patiently through each one of the Republican speeches.
We've heard from Republicans for seven years now. May we please focus on some different ideas? Please, CNN?

Susan Frishkorn
Pensacola, Fl.

Who cares? Now the two RINOs (Republicans in Name Only) will be joined at the hip. If they wernt such war hawks they would be democrats. Hell even the democrats arnt strong against the war. Our two party system has turned into a sad joke with people ignoring principle and instead following polls as gospel.

John McCain will win an overwhelming victory in general elections if Obama gets the Democratic nomination since many democrats will win for McCain and not for Obama! If Clinton gets the nomination, that would make a very interesting election that could swing either way!

McCain with Giuliani as VP.... I could vote for that. Im sure the Republican base would be ready to destroy the party, we can end them and the Democrats all in one year!

Time for some moderates and independents to change the country.

I can see it now...

McCain/Guiliani '08

I'm listening to Rudy's concession speech- what a laughable pile of, um, nonsense.
He's congratulating himself for making such a great contribution to the race, even as he leaves, having not won a single state. Good riddance- g'bye, Rudy.

WOW...can you imagine a McCain/Guiliani ticket! What a beautiful dream–I hope it comes true!!!oh yeah! If that happens I'll be their biggest supporter. :)

McCain/Giuliani '08!

Who cares who Rudy endorses, does it bring our troops home from iraq? no

Im through with the republican party.

Democrat that I am, I have to give it to Giuliani for his up beat concession speech. Defeated but humerous at the same time. God bless him..Obama should take lessons from him.

McCain Scares me to death and the endorsement by Mayor Guliani confirms my suspicion. The Washington insiders will do whatever it takes to keep Mitt Romney out of the race. They are so worried that an honest outsider is going to get elected and expose what has been going on for years it is really quite amazing. I will vote for Romney. He is the best candidate for America. He can work with both the war and the economy. We will really lose out if this man is not elected president.

Mccain/Giulliani ticket anyone?

I am a Republican and have voted such since I was allowed to vote, and would have done so if I could earlier. The McCain immigration issue is fatal to me, along with restrictions on freedom of speech (campaign finance reform) and other anti-conservative/republican stances. Maverick to me means against the party. If he and Obama win I am going to take a more serious look at Obama, and for the first time in my life I may vote democrat. (Lesser of two evils in this case) My friends who are republicans have said they would pick Hillary over him. I won't go that far, but will give serious consideration to a viable independent candidate. Why vote for your party when your representative could care less about your party's ideals. Maverick is not my party. The media's darling is not mine.

God help us!

Great. McCain can get all the Indies to vote for him if the Dems make the mistake of voting Hillary in as the nominee. Yay, those who didn't want another Clinton have a choice!!!

Thanks McCain; you are the Indepedent choice to Hillary Clinton ticket.

Nice campaign, mr. 9.11. No, really. lol hard

LOL Camp?? More like too few crew. I am not sure he would WANT his help anyway.

Mr. Giuliani is a good man and will do the best for our country. It would be wonderful if he supported Mr. McCain.

Rudy trying to salvage a VP slot?
