"I could possibly vote for a socially liberal, fiscally conservative Republican." I definitely could. But what are the odds one could make it through the primaries? Guiliani can be swiftboated so many ways it isn't funny. And too many of the Republicans are very comfortable running such campaigns.

What makes Giuliani more "fiscally conservative" than any of the Democratic candidates? If you're for the Iraq War, you're not "fiscally conservative." You can't get less fiscally conservative than that. -Z

Last summer, Rasmussen Reports surveys found that Giuliani and McCain were seen as closer to the political center than either President Bush or Democratic contenders. The challenge for both men is that their stands create tensions within the party—both Giuliani and McCain are seen as closer to the Democrats’ political center than to that of the GOP. How interesting.......both these guys are closer to the center of the political spectrum and also the center of the Democratic party but not the center of their own party. Talk about speaking volumes.............
