re: #74 Dark_Falcon

I didn’t say I thought he would win. But he might be able to punch out (politically, of course) one or two of the asshats and clear a path for another sane candidate. That would make a run worthwhile in my eyes. I also think he’d be a much better president than Palin, Bachmann, or Gingrich.

Better than Palin, Bachmann or Gingrich? That’s setting the bar pretty low.

What rhetorical force or policy positions does Rudy have that would knock out the asshats? Rudy’s smart, like Daniels, to want a “truce” on social issues. But that stance doesn’t appeal to the gop primary voters (see 2008).
