A Weblog of Centrist Voices in American Politics |

November 13, 2006Rudy ExploresAmerica's Mayor has taken the first steps to become America's President. I am strongly leaning towards Giuliani lately. First, out of the possible Republican contenders he is the the closest to me on the issues... You can't go wrong with a broken windows theory, tough on crime, pro-gay, tax cutting, moderate, urban Republican. Second, Giuliani's experience as the executive of the Big Apple may make him the right man at the right time. I recently heard the Mayor answer a question regarding immigration reform where he emphasized the need for better technology and cited an example of the NYPD using online databases to put police officers in the right place to stop crime. How many of the current Presidential contenders can say I know it will work because I have done it? Did you ever wonder what the Katrina disaster would have been like if it had been handled like Rudy handled NYC on September the 11th? Don't get me wrong, I would walk on coal for Senator John McCain, and on matters of foreign policy he no doubt has one up on Rudy. However, politics is a reality, and if the goal is to get Republican primary voters to pick a centrist, my money is on Giuliani. Posted by Starbucks Republican at November 13, 2006 07:12 PMComments
