That’s Not Going to Win You the Nomination Rudy

I’m sure the conservative base will love Rudy saying that illegal immigration isn’t a crime:

Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani said illegal immigration is not a crime, prompting rival Mitt Romney to accuse him of not taking the problem seriously…

“It’s not a crime,” Giuliani said Friday.

Any conservatives care to comment on his position? Personally, I think we can effectively mark this as the day Rudy lost any chance of winning over the conservative base and winning the Republican nomination for President.

They may have been willing to overlook his pro-choice, pro-gay, pro gun law stances, and his checkered personal history, but illegal immigration not being a crime? That’s crossing the line!

    Not sure if it’s crossing any lines but, as a matter of fact, he’s wrong!

    Excuse me, but doesn’t the word “ILLEGAL” conjure up an element of criminal activity?

    1 1 = 2

    Ummm, oh and Mitt? I still become so angry thinking of how “they” called John Kerry a flip-flopper when Mitt himself is flipping and flopping all over the place now.
