2. Huh?
McCain is almost a social liberal and is a man of great integrity and leadership philosophy.


Bet you'll find some strong disagreement here on that. I personally don't think he's any of those three things.

3. McCain a social liberal??????????????????
In the immortal words of Jim Rome, you gotta be talking smack!!....Let's put it this way, John McCain much more resembles a Sam Brownback than Rudy Guiliani (who I don't think is that socially liberal based on commments that he'd appoint strict constructionist judges)

We all know that B.S. term strict constructionist REALLY means; far right judges who would overturn Roe V. Wade & would trample all over First Amendment rights....

F^ck the Republicans, this country DESPERATELY needs a Democratic win in 2008!!

4. She got this part right...
Because here’s the real danger with Rudy. The man will do what it takes to get results. He will take down and boss around. He’s tear the fuck out of the constitution, but he’ll make you like it. And Bush couldn’t do that. The media, the people, anyone with common sense keeps an eye on the Bush-Cheney crony machine. But Giuliani isn’t a slow thinking fake southerner. He’s too hard not to respect. That’s why he’s so popular amongst conservatives despite his social liberalism. Believe it, conservatives are willing to forgive his social liberalism in order to see someone take down illegal immigrants and terror threats and liberals will forgive his willingness to resort to authoritarian measures.

That's what scares the crap out of me about Guliani, I think.
