Need for Change Hurts Rudy, Hillary

by

giuliani_1.jpgRudy and Hillary reek of old school politics. Rudy has taken the Republican surge of scare tactics to whole new level. He’s full of bluster and surrounds himself with cronies. Rudy has the neocon wing in the bag.

Meanwhile Hillary is running a Dick Gephardt style presidential campaign. She touts her experience. She plays it safe. Even-handed. Boring. And like Gephardt four years ago, Hillary has finally realized that she might not breeze through Iowa. And so in a blink she’s gone sharply negative on her major rival. Iowans have seen it all before.

Hillary has another problem in that it’s not clear how many of her supporters are drawn to her husband rather than to her. Does Hillary really excite people or do Democrats just want a repeat of Bill’s presidency without the sex scandals?

Ms. Clinton has exacerbated the problem by touting her “experience”. But this experience includes the time when Bill was running the show, not Hillary. No one elects a first lady. Hillary is building a bridge to the past. We saw how well that worked for Bob Dole.

Rudy’s problem is more straightforward. Americans quickly tire of living in fear. We are an optimistic, forward thinking people. By now we’ve seen that Saddam actually posed no threat to us. It turns out that Iran isn’t so scary either.

Suicidal teenagers look more threatening than Islamic terrorists these days. But you know what? Shoppers are back at the mall in Omaha. Worshipers will return to the churches in Colorado on Sunday. And school is in session again at Virginia Tech. You just can’t keep the denizens of the free world down for long.

We may be transitioning to a Clinton or Giuliani presidency in a year. But both of them have lost momentum at a crucial moment in time. Will the tumbles continue?
