The Italian Stallion

No, not that one. Rudy.

"Nobody even knows how many Italian-Americans there are. The 2000 census reported almost 16 million, making them the fourth largest white ethnic group – and the only one that experienced growth in the last decade. The National Italian American Foundation puts the number at 25 million, close to 10 percent of the population. Either way, it is possible that there are more Italian-American voters than either blacks or Hispanics."

If they voted as a bloc, which they probably wouldn’t. Still, Rudy will be the first to run seriously.

Via Fresh Bilge 

Fred Thompson for president?

"As Republican counsel in the Watergate hearings, he began building a reputation as a straight-shooter. It was he who asked the question that forced a White House deputy to admit that Richard Nixon had secretly recorded his Oval Office conversations."

I still prefer Rudy Giulliani, but Thompson might have an easier time getting the GOP nomination.
