Both potentially polarizing and energizing at the same time.

Just a thought...

2. they are both moderates going after the 20% of voters in the mushy center
Giuliani will piss off the right-wingers.

Hillary will piss off the left-wingers.

They will fight over the mushy center.

4. No! She is right of left and he is left of right. Too much word play eh?

Previous poster got it. Both mushy in the middle. She is too right for many of us as Rudy is too left for many of the repukes.

7. except that HRC is not to the right of left
Her voting record - is one of the most liberal in the Senate. She has a 95% lifetime ADA rating. The Republican dislike of her is for exactly that reason.

The left wing of the Democratic Party doesn't like her because they are a bunch of political naifs with their heads buried so far up their ideological asses they don't know up from down. Or left from right.

9. bullshit




Why don't you post WHY you think HRC is a Republican. Be sure to somehow include her VOTING record. You know, the one where 95% of the time she votes for the DEMOCRATIC position.
