Victory In Iraq: A Republican Nightmare

This is part of an article I have written that has been published in Impeached Magazine.  Click on the link to the website to read the rest. 

It may seem unthinkable, but the recent success of the surge in Iraq could spell doom for the Republican presidential hopefuls in 2008.  The current stumbling of the Giuliani campaign stands as a glaring example, and his fellow candidates would be well advised to take notice if they plan on escaping a similar fate. 

It was only months ago when many Republicans were wondering who Giuliani’s running mate would be after he sowed up the Republican nomination. Some of my friends on the right were talking about his chances against a Democratic opponent like it was a foregone conclusion.  Talk radio and cable news were buzzing like a high school cafeteria during prom week.  Giuliani was the big man on campus and everyone wanted to know who he was taking to the dance.  Rumors and innuendos were flying like spitballs in 7thperiod study hall. “I heard he’s gonna ask John McCain”, whispered one commentator.  “No way, he’s totally taking Mitt Romney!” another snapped.  “Shut up. Everyone knows he likes that Huckabee guy, and plus, they look cute together.”

    Great Read Man!
    You bring up a very good point about Giuliani falling off the face of the earth. It is funny how he has gone from the clear front runner to not even placing in the top three in the first two States! I mean he is seriously in that state of limbo now where does he forge ahead and hope to make up ground or just give up and stop dreaming and start staring down the barrel of reality.
    Very interesting take on the Repubs use of the War and Fear to drive their party. it is certainly something Karl Rove seemed to use well for the Monkey in office now.

    I would not count Giuliani out yet. After all, look at the states he did not win. I could be wrong but I do not believe anybody expected him to win these states and that is why he did not spend very much of this time/resources campaigning there. Only time will tell, but I think he still has a very good chance winning the Rep. nom.
