Wow. Worst endorsement speech I've ever seen.
I just watched the most painful, dull endorsement speech I think I've ever seen. Rudy G just underscored why voters ran away from him in droves, once they got to know him. Unfortunately for McCain, he was unlucky enough to be on the stage with him at the same time; but on the positive side, it made McCain's comatose response seem lively, by comparison.

Wow.

2. Guliani looked like he couldn't give a shit
I think he just wants to go home and cheat on his wife again.

5. ha! Exactly.
"I'm gonna do whatever John makes me do to campaign, but I sure hope I can just go home and hide for a while. I'm a total embarrassment."

3. Actually, I think the Repukes will eat it up. The theme was 9/11.

8. 9/11? Why didn't he think of that before!?
Could have been an asset to his campaign.

9. But the "real" repukes HATE McCain and only tolerated Rooodie after 9/11 because
He made for convenient PR.

I do wonder about a McCain/Roodie ticket.

4. Rudy is a horrible speaker...
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 06:30 PM by kirby
I saw him campaigning/pandering in FL. Towards the end of this spew, he tosses out... 'And we are going to build a vehicle to deliver stuff to the space station' and 'We're gonna send a man to MARS too!'. Other than some tacked on pandering points, to whom I can only assume were Cape Canaveral crowd, it was so insincere and lame.

6. Doddering old Republican white geezers who kill people?
Why are you watching them lurch around a stage together? Turns your stomach, don't it?

10. Very much so. Truthfully, I tuned in mostly because I expected a trainwreck ...
... and saw one.
