Rudy: I Might Not Even Have To Win Florida

[tekisui]

Just how panicked is Rudy Giuliani starting to look? After initially trying to play in various other states and then pulling out in order to bet it all on Florida, he's now downplaying the need to win a primary even in Florida.

In an interview on Fox News today, Rudy was asked by Neil Cavuto if he needed to win in the Sunshine State. "I don't think any candidate ever puts himself in a corner and says, must win, have to win, must win," Rudy said.

rudy911 must think he doesn't need to win at all. His days are surely numbered.

1. Rudy: I might have to come up with another disease so I don't have to say I quit.

[underpants]

2. Okay I actually laughed at that subject line

See Rudy at the Convention telling a few straggling reporters "You SEE I may not even need to win the nomination...." :rofl:

3. My house is made of straw and is terribly sturdy, said the first little pig.

Too early to say and we'll have to wait until the votes are counted, but at the moment the Giuliani campaign doesn't sound terribly certain about its prospects in Florida.

4. I'm predicting

That Giuliani will win 9.11% of the Florida vote.

6. Heh heh--aren't you just ... WICKED!

In the nicest possible way, of course!

:evilgrin:

8. I can't wait for us to pick a nominee

So I can finally use my snark skills for the cause of good.


(ie bashing the Republican nominee)

11. Yep. The 'pundits' are saying this could go on forever, but I hope we

have clarity after Super Duper Tuesday!

10. That would be wonderfully ironic

:)

5. He isn't even in a position to STEAL it.

It's gonna be McCain who gets the nom, I think. McCain paid his dues with that Sweaty Hug a few years back.

7. Umm, you've got to win A state, Rudy.....

.... and even your home state is in serious doubt.

[pinto]

9. LOL. His campaign managers are speed dialing 911 as we type.

12. The boneheadedness of Rudy's "strategy" still amazes me

What could possibly have made him think he could just blow off all the other early primary states and win? Probably the same sort of astute mind that led him to put New York's Terrorism Response Center inside one of the WTC buildings. Seriously, at least Droops Thompson gave it the old nursing home try! Rudy knocked himself out of the race. That's just emBARRassing.

13. Loved his Daytona racetrack gig on the Bus to Nowhere.................

Riding around in cicles ain't gonna do it, Mr. Horse Teeth

14. Adolf 9iu11ani won't even win New York.

Der Rudyfuhrer has lost 5 out of 6 primaries to Fred Thompson, who was campaigning in his spare time between naps.

15. Rudy moving his late state strategy to PA

on April 22nd

hold your breath, or don't

16. Uh oh. Deja vu all over again. Wasn't the Dimson a little cocky

during his campaign; like "I got it sewed up" cocky.
