The Republican Who Can Beat Our Two Greatest Foes
By J. James Estrada (05/19/07)
With the "war is lost" Democrats in control of Congress, this is most assured: we will be hit again on our soil by terrorists. When that happens, who do you want in the office of the President of the United States? Of course, you want a Republican. Even Democrats were thankful that it was George W. Bush and not Al Gore in office after 9/11. The question becomes then, which Republican? The answer is two-fold. Who will beat Mrs. Bill Clinton in the general election? And who is tough enough to begin a real 'shock and awe' campaign on the Islamofacist world, who desire to kill us?
Newt Gingrich could have proven his mettle to hammer Mrs. Bill Clinton, but he’s afraid to play the nomination game the way the rules are drawn up. If he can’t enter the game at kick-off and get his uniform dirty, how is he going to tussle with the Arkansas Razorback (also referred to as an Old World swine, Eurasian wild boar, or Russian wild boar, per Wikipedia)? Have you ever seen a football game where some guy who’s been sitting on the bench the whole time comes strutting onto the field in the fourth quarter in a bleached-white jersey? He comes off like a wuss among the others who have dirt, grime and blood on their sleeves and in their eyes. Same deal for Fred Thompson.
Among the candidates to be considered for the two questions posed above, only this name fits the mold: Giuliani. Sure, some of the other guys would do well on the War and national security. But, in this funny, mixed up America, they could not handle the slight-of-hand of Mrs. Slick Willie during the run up to the general election. Her bag of tricks contain stolen FBI files and a slew of professional dirt merchants and spinmeisters and, she has at her command, the Hounds of Hell (private investigators) that will leave most good men running for fig leaves.
Giuliani has had his unclean laundry list exposed for years on the front pages of the New York tabloids. And he’s still standing. Not only standing, but leading the pack after taking his shots! He’s Brett Favre with the right accent!
