September 4, 200818 yr Rudy last night said the following: But he's never run a city, never run a state, never run a business," Ignoring the grammar issues, who was he talking about?
September 4, 200818 yr Author I'm guessing Obama, but could the same be said about McCain? That's why I asked. From what I know and reading the Sen. McCain bio he went from Navy Retired directly to the Senate. So was Rudy talking about both Sen. Obama AND Sen. McCain?
September 4, 200818 yr That's why I asked. From what I know and reading the Sen. McCain bio he went from Navy Retired directly to the Senate. So was Rudy talking about both Sen. Obama AND Sen. McCain? For the people who probably aren't very informed...they will listen to that and assume that only Barack Obama fits that description.
September 5, 200818 yr Rudy also discussed the command decisions that McCain was called upon to make as a squadron leader in contrast to Obama's total lack of executive experience.
September 5, 200818 yr Running a small flight squad is not executive experience. McBush had 35 years to change something. Never did, never will.
September 5, 200818 yr I don't remember the exact size of it, but what McCain ran in the Navy was not a small flight squad, as Diamond Dandy would have you believe. I believe he was the first person to ever get every plane in his squad in the air during his time in charge.
September 5, 200818 yr Author Rudy also discussed the command decisions that McCain was called upon to make as a squadron leader in contrast to Obama's total lack of executive experience. Correct. Is that the same as running a city or business? Its hard to argue that Rudy inadvertantly threw Sen. McCain under the bus.
September 5, 200818 yr Correct. Is that the same as running a city or business? Its hard to argue that Rudy inadvertantly threw Sen. McCain under the bus. What he meant was that Obama has never ran anything in his life, whereas McCain has....
September 5, 200818 yr Author What he meant was that Obama has never ran anything in his life, whereas McCain has.... To be clear, when you say he's run something you're talking about his military experience, correct? You're not implying that he has executive experience , right?
September 5, 200818 yr To be clear, when you say he's run something you're talking about his military experience, correct? You're not implying that he has executive experience , right? Correct.
September 5, 200818 yr Author What about running a campaign of this magnitude? I don't put much into that really.
September 5, 200818 yr I don't put much into that really. Neither do I, but something has to be said for it. Employing over 2500 people and generating an estimated half a billion dollars in 2 years is no small task.
September 5, 200818 yr Rudy also discussed the command decisions that McCain was called upon to make as a squadron leader in contrast to Obama's total lack of executive experience. I was going to point that out as it was conveniently left out of the first post.
