Rudy hammers Hillary (good for him)
Rudy Giuliani is not my first choice for president in 2008. Hell, he's not even my second choice. He's winning points with me, however, for being the only GOP candidate who's willing to tell the absolute truth about Hillary Clinton, i.e., that she's a pinko statist whose policy positions are making George McGovern's 1972 platform look like an academic report from the Mont Pelerin Society.
From GOPUSA:
"Republican Rudy Giuliani compared Hillary Rodham Clinton to 1972 Democratic nominee George McGovern on Wednesday and chided his rival for adding a Southern lilt to her voice as he intensified his criticism. ...
"Positioning himself as the one Republican able to thwart another Clinton presidency, Giuliani lambasted Clinton's recent comments about giving a $5,000 savings bond to every U.S.-born baby.
"'It's interesting that Hillary is taking something from the George McGovern playbook,' Giuliani said in Manchester, N.H., likening her idea to the former South Dakota senator's proposal to send $1,000 to every U.S. resident. ...
"Without naming Clinton, Giuliani also alluded to an appearance this past spring in Selma, Ala., in which she slipped into what sounded like a Southern accent before a largely black audience."
