Poll question: Republican candidates: Who's most likely to start a new war?

Giuliani is the most obvious choice with his macho posturing, but Huckabee may have that fundie, "Let's start a war in the Middle East, so we can all get raptured!" attitude.

Romney might support a war because it's good for business, McCain because he seems more than a little unstable. Old Fred's administration could start one while he's napping.

What do you think?

3. Better question: Who is more UNlikely to rush to war at first op?

THAT's what is scary. The answer is none of them. 'Cept maybe that Paul buffoon.

4. Paul is the only one....

The US would have to be directly attacked by another nation for him to want to go to war.

The rest of 'em will do it because the targeted nation will have something their corporate masters want.

9. OK. So, whom do you think is more unlikely to rush to war?

I'm probably more interested in looking at it that way, seeing that I'm quite worried about voting machine tampering again. As much as I would like to see the Rethugs nominate their worst candidate, I'm also worried about getting stuck with the worst if the Rethugs repeat their election crimes of 2000 and 2004.

10. Giuliani. And he wouldn't even attack the proper country.

He'd be fine with spinning a globe and landing his finger on a spot with his eyes closed.

11. LOL! Yes. He certainly hasn't indicated that he has....

knowledge of international political affairs.

It's all about Rudy being tough and "in charge."
