ST. PAUL, Minn. — Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani says if Sarah Palin had been president when the U.S. came under attack on Sept. 11, 2001, he's confident she would have been able to handle the crisis.

Palin's experience as the mayor of a tiny Alaska town and as Alaska's governor for less than two years have led critics to question her readiness to be vice president in a John McCain administration _ and president should he be unable to continue serving.

In an interview Wednesday on ABC's "Good Morning America," Giuliani was asked, "If she were the president on 9/11, you would have been confident?"

Giuliani responded: "I'd be confident that she'd be able to handle it. She's been a governor of a state, she's been mayor of a city."

All the losers, Romney, Huckerbee, Lieberman and Giuliani did was criticize Obama because this is all they have to run and can't compete with Obama. What a bunch of Losers, even you McCain!!
Obama and Biden '08!!

I have to confess, although liberal live and let live...I just cannot stand this man. I did not like him when he used 9/11 as a springboard into fame, I mean three photo ops a day for weeks. Who was keeping the city on track? Like Mc Cain, he is a one trick pony and always will be.

I'm surprise he didn't wear his pretty pink dress. Mr. Scandal has not right to point any finger at anyone. How could we go thru a speech of Rudy and not hear about 911? So much for the Republicans not making 911 a political issue. That's all they ever done.

And of course we got another heavy dose of POW.

Rudy skewered the dems and did them to a golden turn. That was one great speech, the libs gave him so much material he didn't know where to start.

Yeah Reggie, and the Reptilians have so many successes lately, they're just a natural to repeat.
I'm still waiting for this pathetic cast of geriatrics to trot out a single worthwhile accomplishment achieved after bungling their way through eight excruciating years.

Rudy Gooliani bad mouthing Obama? The same guy that he ran a presidential campaign with the genius stratgy of missing every primary. Nice work Gooly. Guys so ugly that small children run when they see this pervert. Gooly and Mittsey are about the biggest buch of morons I've ever seen. This is the party that gave us Bush. Great job, vote Republican! Bunch of knuckle draggers.

Did you see old Rudy give someone a Terrorist BUMP? I watched Sarah, and I was not impressed. A very scripted speech...not good presentation. I actually saw several people yawning! There are a lot of Republicans that are not pleased with her, you could see on their faces. The lies they had her telling was terrible, just like Joe Lieberman did. To all of you religious people, you are at a crossroad, it is time for you to make a choice...you can continue to close your eyes, your hearts to the truth and cast your one vote strictly on race...the way I see it, at that moment you have sold your soul to the devil. Anytime you chose wrong over right, then you will deserve what you will get. "Be ye not deceived, for God is not mocked; whatsoever you sow, you will reap." Obama-Biden 08!

Is it election day yet? I feel so bad for all these Repub's and their talking points. It is a shame that they must ruin their own careers just to help someone elses who isn't even good! LOL I would do that for Obama but not for McDumb. Please go vote on election day for Obama. He has a brain. Period.

Am I the only one that is curious as to who is going around to all the Republicans and handing out "stupid pills"! Rudy is such a tool and he fully blooms in the "vacuum of thought" that now has overcome the GOP. Not a new or significant idea in years! Nothing can live in a vacuum, except a bad idea.
