Giuliani says, vote for MY change

FORT MYERS -- At his largest, most- press-watched event of his Florida bus tour, Rudy Giuliani borrowed from the "change vote" debate on the Democratic and Republican sides to woo voters in Ft. Myers. Be careful to look whether change is good or bad, he told a crowd of more than 1,000 at the Shell Point retirement community.

Instead, he touted his proposal for tax cuts and single-page tax return (a plan that Fred Thompson supporters say they recognize) . "In other words, we would put more 'change' in your pockets," he told the crowd.

After barely taking questions on Sunday, the town hall meeting here was his second-straight event taking questions. He even got an introduction by Lt. Gov. Jeff Kottkamp, though the campaign said it was because Kottkamp hails from the area, not a confirmed endorsement.

That's how you know most of these new polls are garbage. Does anyone really think McCain could draw 1,000 people in Ft. Myers for a town hall?

Does anybody care? Half the folks there were probably dems, or just came over from shuffle board and wondered what the commotion was.

Whoever thinks half the crowd was Dems obviously doesn't know the voter breakdowns around Fort Myers very well.
But the event WAS at a senior citizens community, and it was free....

And there WAS free denture cleanings!!

Giuliani has too many skeletons in his closet that the Dems will be more than happy to expose this fall (this on top of all his extramerital affairs, shady business dealings like the company he formerd post 9-11 representing a former convicted cocaine trafficker to land govt contracts). This on top of the fact that he is anything but a tax cutter (though he poses to be one).

John McCain appears to be the only GOP candidate who will do what he says, and say what he does. The fact that the Washington establishment does not like McCain means he is a threat to the same old song and dance. That's what America needs after 8 yrs. of Bush and 8 yrs. of Clinton -- both of whom were bumbling do-nothings. John McCain for all his warts will tell us what we NEED as opposed to just giving us what we WANT. That means we may finally get real Social Security reform, an end to wasteful pork-barrell spending, and tax-cuts with dollar-for-dollar spending cuts (the spending mess the current crop of GOPers led by Bush is atrocious). So please voters, wake up and recognize we need someone to give us all a dose of distasteful medicine. Sorry for all the Giuliani and Romney supporters, but they just don't have the spine or convictions to do it. And Ron Paul, for all his great ideas has 20 ridiculous ones for every good one.

Give America's next generation a hope for a brighter future. Vote McCain!!!
