The nation's senior governor was in New Hampshire on Thursday while "America's Mayor" was preparing to fly to Iowa as they continue their explorations of the 2008 presidential landscape.

But ask Phyllis Schlafly what chance New Yorkers George Pataki and Rudolph Giuliani have of being the Republican presidential nominee and her answer comes quickly:

"Not much."

"I don't think Giuliani or Pataki will resonate with grass-roots Republicans or Midwest Republicans," said the Kansas-based conservative activist. "They are SO New York."

1. She does have a point

They are the party of bigoted homophobes, after all.

[rep the dems]

2. Yet, somehow they think that's a good thing.

When will those morons realize that their attitude towards gays is no different from how people used to view blacks? Learning to treat them as equals made our country better, but republicans don't seem to notice.

3. They will have to take not eventually,look at Canada..

The party that most vigorously opposed same sex marriage,now the government,has an openly gay cabinet minister.

4. Pataki signed New York state's gay rights bill into law.

He might as well just not even bother exploring a Presidential bid. Schafly is, very sadly, right. He and Guliani have zero chance of getting the nomination.

5. Of all the reasons Schafley might dislike either, she immediately points

to their support of gay rights. Tells you the depth of her and others hatred and bigotry.
