They should just put Mitt's words on the air.
This video of Mitt is very disappointing.

You expect any politicians to be "authentic"?

rudy needs to spend some time defending his poor record.
remember when giuliani endorsed cuomo over pataki? rudy said that pataki's tax cut plan would be "absolute disaster".
rudy's record is bad, inconsistent, and libbberal.

The First Amendment to the Constitution is not Progressive. It gives greater weight to the right of the individual to speak, to write, and to associate than to any collective purpose the government might have in suppressing speech. That right includes inevitably a right to spend money to speak, to write, and to associate. Without the right to spend, the other rights would have no concrete meaning.
In contrast, Progressives see speech as a means to a collective good -- improved public debate -- attained by government restrictions on individual liberty. In this view, free speech and free spending are mere self-interest or selfishness, vices to be overcome by benevolent censors.
For McCain, such self-interest should be sacrificed to the higher cause of "clean government." Hence, McCain's infamous statement on Don Imus's radio show: "I would rather have a clean government than one where quote First Amendment rights are being respected, that has become corrupt. If I had my choice, I'd rather have the clean government
