Will Rudy make it through January
Some of us remember Gary Hart/Rice incident. Seeing that new info is coming out on Rudy daily and now it looks like he was using city funds to have his mistress driven to her parents home in PA. Will he make it through the next two months. I truly believe that if he was a Democrat he would be done by the end of the week.

2. somebody on KO's show referred to his "teflon"-- the morans on the reich don't care--
and notice how the little story about his relationship with sponsors of terror has been swept under the rug?

a dem would have been hung by now.

5. Ordinarily I'd say no
but Bush has made it through 2007, so all bets are off.

8. there is, however, a SLIGHT difference between a blow job in the oval office, and using the police
and state funds to keep your mistress in style.

WHY is there so much attention on this, and virtually NONE on the connections between him and terror sponsors?

15. I see a huge difference
I could care less who BD was doing that is none of my business. Rudi on the other hand is using public funds for personal use. Big difference in my book.

7. Nope. The slime oozing from Rudy & "Judi" is too malodorous

for even the mainstream press to ignore for long...

10. He will have a
hard time in the month of December. It appears that there is more than just a general focus on Rudy, and that he is the target of some people behind the scenes that do not want him as the republican nominee.

11. I think he will. He's been weakened, but none of the other candidates
are especially spectacular either--they ALL have their fatal flaws.

13. he'll hang in past January
but his hubris and ego won't let him admit defeat until he absolutely has to.

Of course, then it'll be about spending more time with his family ... er, wait. His family won't have him, so it'll be about spending more time with his mistress ... sorry, wife and not because he's polling at 3% and the donors have all but forgotten he existed.

14. He in the race through Steroid-Enhanced-Tuesday. He'll take a beating from Jan. 3 through Feb. 5,
and then he'll ignobly drop out.

16. He is the Chosen One by the neocons and Faux News. They will prop him up.
Not enough yet to toss him overboard, by any means, particularly as he has promised them to be a shameless warmonger, apparently. He is anointed by them. Mere scandals aren't enough to dislodge him; go find reporting on any of them in the Washington Post, for instance, compared to their made-up crap about the Dems on page 1 daily.

18. He's been chosen by the NeoCons, but Romney is the choice of the Corporatists who trump the NeoCons
(the Dominionists who get on board with Huchabee will see that they rank even lower than the NeoCons).

17. Depends on his wardrobe.
He won't make it in this outfit.



He'll have to go to some darker colors.

19. "Stick a fork in him, he is done" .........
with all the NY papers breathing down his back including the city Comptroller he is done. They made the State comptroller Hevisi resign over using a car to transport his sick wife. Judy was just a concubine and Rudy an adulter.

20. Don't forget - he's still Fox News' candidate of choice
...although I must admit it will be beyond hilarious to watch Hannity and all of those of other worthless little punks all try to spin like a top if they suddenly have to change horsemen in the middle of the apocalypse!
