Giuliani's 20 - 30%
We shot this footage of Rudy Giuliani at Great Northern Trading Company in Meredith, New Hampshire this morning.
Noted: Bloggers who actually venture out of their basement, discard their pajamas (temporarily) and hit the campaign trail? Shocking, we know.
Team Giuliani billed this morning's campaign stop as a "business visit".
About 20 voters showed up.
Hiz Honor, who arrived in a 3 car caravan but left most of his staff outside (smart), spent 15 minutes shaking hands and having his picture taken with everyone who wanted one.
After pictures, Giuliani gave a three minute stump speech. He took no questions from the smattering of local media (and 1 blogger) in attendance.
Of interest to us (and we've been watching this guy on the Trail since October of '06) "taxes" seems to be overtaking "staying on offense" as the #1 issue that Rudy wants to talk about.
Maybe the "one trick pony" label is getting a bit old for the Mayor?
In today's speech Giuliani claimed that Democrats were going to "raise taxes anywhere from 20 to 30%" if they won the White House. Right before he attacked John Edwards in particular.
We wonder if the DNC (and Edwards) is going to take issue with that.
Snark.
