I remember when National Journal wouldn’t even admit that Rudy was one of the top 5 candidates for the nomination. Now, he’s cracked into their top 3, with an assist from George “Macaca” Allen — who may not even run. Sure, National Journal still has&n…
Now can we please dispense with this nonsense that the base will never accept Rudy?
In the Republican primary question, Giuliani (27 percent) edges McCain (25 percent) for the leader spot, with the only other candidate to receive double-digit support being former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich (14 percent).
If there were only two choices, […]
I remember when National Journal wouldn’t even admit that Rudy was one of the top 5 candidates for the nomination. Now, he’s cracked into their top 3, with an assist from George “Macaca” Allen — who may not even run.
Sure, National Journal still has a warped focus on gatekeeper support and endorsements – trumping the buzz, grassroots momentum, and […]

DaveG over at Race 4 2008 has written an absolutley terrific response to John Hawkins article on Rudy’s social record.
It’s truly one of the best defenses of Rudy as the most accomplished conservative in America that I have read.
John Hawkins of Right Wing News makes the conservative case against Rudy Giuliani for 2008. Hawkins’ piece largely consists of the same old anti-Rudy arguments wrapped in slightly new packaging, focusing a lot on Rudy’s decade-old socially liberal positions on a few cultural issues, as well as his Manhattanite personal life and some nonsense about unelectability (more […]
John Hawkins has posted a pretty thorough roundup of the blemishes in Rudy’s past social views.
The problem is that Giuliani’s platform in the 2008 primary race will differ significantly from when he was running for Mayor of NYC in the late 1980’s.

Folks — not only did that Cook/RT Stratigies Poll released yesterday show a 12 point Rudy lead in the primary, but they provided FULL crosstabs, so we can have some sense of where Rudy and McCain’s support is coming from. Just as I’ve suspected for months, Rudy’s supporters are right in the mainstream of the […]
Hizzoner was in the Twin Cities last night to raise money for Senate candidate Mark Kennedy. Rudy was the featured speaker at even which also included Sen. Norm Coleman and Rep. John Kline.
This is the second time that I have heard Hizzoner speak at one of these small fundraisers, and I can tell you that […]

Not exactly the best birthday news for Senator McCain. McCain pollster Charlie Cook’s latest poll shows Rudy up by 12 pts. in the race for the GOP nomination.
In even worse news, when respondents are informed of Rudy’s social views, GOP’ers say “nominate him anyway” by 18%!

John Hawkins over at Right Wing News has put together a piece titled “The Conservative Case Against Rudy Giuliani“. It’s an interesting read.
I don’t agree that staving off the downfall of Western civilization depends on overturning Roe v. Wade, so I’ll skip over the stuff about abortion. If that is your single issue, more power […]

This time it’s the ultra-conservative Free Republic online poll. Rudy wins at 46%, Romney 29%, and McCain comes in last at 5%.
Since it’s looking more and more like the GOP 2008 race will boil down to the big three of Rudy, Romney, and McCain, this poll is really terrific for Rudy fans as Free Republic is representative of the Conservatives that Rudy is suppose to have trouble with.
As blogger
Free Republic, the right-side of the right-side of the blogosphere, is hosting an online poll asking members which Republican they’d vote for if the 2008 field narrowed to just Rudy, Romney, and McCain. The results would be astonishing if it weren’t for the latest GOP Bloggers straw poll, which illuminates the outcome considerably.Â
The choices of Freepers […]
Well, the results are in w/r/t the latest edition of the GOP Bloggers 2008 straw poll. With over nine thousand votes cast from self-selected online Republicans and conservatives, Rudy Giuliani is now the clear frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination. The good mayor has surpassed both George Allen and Newt Gingrich to attain the highest net postive […]
Having dealt with Rudy’s status with the Christian Right today, let’s move on to another critical segment of the GOP-the Right-Wing Blogosphere. The pundits would certainly have you believe that Rudy would fair poorly here against other “more conservative” candidates like George Allen or Newt Gingrich.
They would be wrong:
GOP Bloggers 2008 Straw Poll (August 2006)
Giuliani 24.6%
Considering the fact that Allen won this poll on a fairly regular basis before the “macaca” incident, we can clearly see how much this controversy has injured him. If his support has dropped this much among the right-leaning blogosphere, what has it done to him with the general public?

Giuliani 24.6% (22.0%)

The Christian News recently conducted a survey regarding potential 2008 candidates. The results are quite interesting:

I would not put too much weight on this poll considering that Jeb Bush was included, along with the fact that I am unsure of their polling methods. The results however, are interesting:
