Republican Candidates

Here are the activities of the main Republican Candidates over the last 48 hours:

1.) Rudy Giuliani - 2004: "I'm in favor of . . . civil unions." Rudy Giuliani today (according to officials from the Giuliani campaign): "In this specific case the law states same sex civil unions are the equivalent of marriage and recognizes same sex unions from outside states. This goes too far and Mayor Giuliani does not support it." The guy keeps contradicting himself to get the nomination. I really like the guy to some extent, but this kind of backtracking shows he just wants to get elected, not serve the American people. I mean, I am glad his current position is against civil unions, but saying so now won't erase the past.

2.) John McCain (Quoting from a story from Newsmax): "I'm aware of the patience of the American people. I read the polls. I'm not embarrassed to say that. I understand the frustration and sorrow that American people feel about this war. It's a great tragedy...If we leave Iraq, there will be chaos, there will be genocide, and they will follow us home," the Arizona senator said, calling the war against al-Qaida "a struggle between good and evil." Controversial as McCain is, he is very consistent on his stance re: the Iraq war. Good job, John!

3.) Mitt Romney is the first to agree to participate in the Salem Radio/Townhall.com debate. Should be a good forum for the candidates. Between Romney and Giuliani, I'm rooting for Romney, in spite of some of his contradictory stances. Unless a candidate we haven't foreseen steps forward, the Republicans are going to nominate someone who has got some baggage. However, I might point out that all the Democrat candidates have problems, too. Only, the MSM won't cover those problems like they ought to.
