Aide: Terrorist Act Will Make Giuliani President

Newsmax
Monday, March 5, 2007

Rudy Giuliani told Larry King last month that he was running for president before setting off on a series of carefully staged campaign events around the country to prove the point. Just showing that he meant it gave Giuliani a serious bump in the polls and worried his rivals. After a slow start, Giuliani's candidacy has gained ground in recent weeks. In the new Newsweek Poll, Giuliani leads Sen. John McCain by 25 points (59 to 34 percent) as the choice of registered Republicans and voters leaning Republican for the party's nomination, while former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney trails both men by more than 30 points.

"I have thought for the longest time that had zero chance," an aide to another Republican candidate who asked for anonymity talking up the chances of his boss's rival, tells Newsweek. "But he's got real momentum. And if there's a terrorist attack between now and the election, he could be the next president of the United States."

In the March 12 Newsweek cover, "The Real Rudy," (on newsstands Monday, March 5), Senior Writer and Political Correspondent Jonathan Darman profiles Giuliani, the man who came to be known as "America's Mayor" following 9/11. Darman reports that the former mayor's life story is that of a man with a righteous sense of right and wrong and who excels when the world presents him with a crisis, and, when left to his own devices, creates crises for himself.

1. Good God.....

After what we've been through, how could any Repub get a positive bounce out of an attack? They've been asleep at the switch for YEARS.

2009, but nothing would surprise me.

[Benhurst]

9. That's my fear as well.

12. We must take the counting of our votes back and not trust private companies who cheat.

to do it.

We should be tabulating every vote at every precinct in public view.

That is what they don't want us to do.

8. Terror attack

Keric has been on a few talk shows lately talking about terror attacks. Wonder if another attack has been planned to help Rudy get elected?

[Poiuyt]

10. "and, when left to his own devices, creates crises for himself."
