Rudy adds former Congressman to list

Former Congressman Clay Shaw announced today that he's supporting former Mayor Rudy Giuliani. Shaw was defeated last year by Democratic Congressman Ron Klein for that seat.

Comments

Mr. Romney, the Republican candidate from Massachusetts by way of Michigan and Utah who enjoys a milkshake at the end of a long day, stopped by a staging area for a Martin Luther King Birthday parade here. In his dress shirt and tie, and with his unwavering smile, he walked over and posed for photographs with a group of black youngsters. Putting his arm around a teenage girl, he waved to the cameras and offered, “Who let the dogs out?” He added a tepid “woof woof.”

Somewhere, the Baha Men, the Bahamian group whose 2000 song the candidate was referencing, must have been shuddering.

Kevin Madden, one of Mr. Romney’s campaign boyz on the bus, said the candidate had been joking around and had responded to someone who asked, “Who let you out?”

Later, Mr. Romney admired a child’s gold necklace and said, “Oh, you’ve got some bling-bling here.”

2:49pm what the hell is wrong with you?

He's probably just pointing out how out of touch Mitt is.

Giuliani 'ran like a coward on 9/11'

Families of firefighters killed in the Sept. 11 terror attacks on the World Trade Center rallied in Orlando Tuesday in anticipation of the state's upcoming Republican primary. Unfortunately for Presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani, the firefighters are not in his corner.

"We want America to know that [the Giuliani campaign] is lying to America and to the American pubic," said Jim Riches, a deputy chief in the New York Fire Department, "telling all of Florida that the New York City Fire Department backs him, when that's another lie."

Firefighters and their families vowed to dog the former New York mayor at all of his Florida campaign stops because the state figures prominently in Giuliani's big-state primary strategy. The protesters think that Giuliani was aware that firefighters who responded to the World Trade Center attack were carrying defective radios and did not hear the order to evacuate.

"He didn't prepare us before, during, or after," says Riches.

Giuliani has campaigned strongly on his leadership during the attacks on New York, claiming he is the best suited to prevent an "Islamic terrorist war against us." But the firefighters were quick to question that courage.

"Yeah, the decision he made was, which direction he was going to run," says Riches. "And he ran north, and that's all he did."

The Giuliani campaign labeled the display a misleading, partisan attack. The former mayor is also emphasizing his ability to deal with the economy, distancing himself from the 9/11 pitch.

I don't think Mr. Romney is racist but those words are idiotic at best.

I'm voting for McCain. He's the only guy you can trust and you know where he stands on all the important issues.

Yes we know where he stands on important issues...with the Democrats.

Rudy needs to do well among South Florida Republicans. If Shaw actually campaigns for Rudy, this will be a good endorsement for him.

This endorsement is absolutely HUGE!

Hello President Rudy!

[Rudy's mistake]

getting McCollum to endorse was the kiss of death because if you have ever been in a room with that blowhard who thinks his irish roots in brooksville is all anyone wants to hear about and how he thinks he is the best little short guy with an ugly wife is beyond anyone. mccollum is a tool. avoid at all cost.
