Rudy and the rest of the Republicans seem to want to face off against Hillary, as they feel that she is vulnerable. Is this logical coming from someone who has been married three times, once to his cousin. Marched in a gay pride parade, kicked his wife out the mayor's mansion and moved in his mistress, and has switched his stances on abortion and gun control just as much as Hillary has switched her stances on issues. I know if I had those skeletons in my closet, the last person I would want to be facing is the Clinton machine.

I doubt there are any skeleton left in Hillary's closest, they are all out after 16 years of people digging so Rudy will get beaten to death on values issues, while Hillary will play the wronged wife who kept her marriage vows. If Rudy is the nominee he will he will have to portray her as softhearted liberal who who won't take action on terror and that we need a MAN to protect us. I don't think it will work, because that is what we have now and over 60% of the people don't approve of what Bush is doing. Besides will anyone believe Hillary is softhearted.

Rudy doesn't stand a chance. Anyone who wants a liberal in the White House will vote for Hillary - I'm predicting she wins the Democratic nomination - and anyone who wants a true conservative in office will not vote for Rudy. The Republican candidates who have the best chance of rallying the party's support behind them and beating Hillary are Ron Paul, Fred Thompson, and Mike Huckabee, although all three have their short-comings. Ron Paul doesn't have the name recognition with voters who don't use the Internet even though his fund-raising is improving. Fred Thompson doesn't seem to have the will to win and he seems to be a more "moderate" conservative than the other two but he's got the national name recognition. Huckabee has pretty good name recognition, although not as good as Thompson, since the media seems to favor him among the "dark-horse" candidates but he doesn't have the fund-raising to really compete. Rudy and Romney continually change their positions on the issues, McCain is anti-gun rights and pro-amnesty, Hunter and Tancredo don't have the name recognition or the fund-raising to be a viable Presidential candidate - although they should be considered for VP and could have a good shot at the Presidency in the future. It seems that the Republican party is too splintered to put forth a nominee that could beat Hillary in the general election.

It's kinda like Bush vs Kerry or Bush vs Gore or ...
Those are minor things in the larger scheme.
Let those two lace 'em up. I just couldn't bet on Hillary.

Rudy and Hillary were slated to run against each for the NY Senate seat a few years ago. If they end up against each other it will be a very dirty campaign, they've been saving it up for years.

No.
They say they want to run against Hillary, it is not true.
No Republican candidate can beat her. Their only chance is to keep repeating the lie, and to scare Dems into nominating a more vulnerable candidate.
They already know that fear can sway voters from experience.

Hillary won't stand a chance...the republicans are misleading the public into believing that Hillary could win, America is not ready for that, maybe in 20 years
