Second, Rudy is probably the only candidate who could have quickly answered the question about the difference between Sunni and Shiite Muslims. This was a gotcha question from Mr. Hardball, and Rudy knocked it back at him.
Third, the issue of abortion is not an issue for government. It is a moral and ethical issue, and if the various religions are not able to convince their members that abortion is bad, then government should not be the fall back enforcer. Rudy is the only candidate to say he hates abortion, but the choice is a woman's choice, not the government' choice. When will we get smart and drop this as a political issue -- it is not. This is a red herring the Democrats continue to force upon all the rest of us.
p>Fourth, there are only three viable candidates: Rudy, McCain and Romney. The rest are interviewing to be Vice President, or are there to make a specific point on a specific issue or two. Lets have a real debate with viable candidates. br> -- Tuck /p> p> ME AND MY GUITAR br> Re: Lawrence Henry's Stratocaster : /p>Like Mr. Henry, I gave up a vintage original Paisley Fender Telecaster (1968) for a less delectable model. I have come to realize years later that I didn't really lose anything. I enjoyed a "vintage" Gibson Hummingbird (1966) for over a decade until I walked into a guitar store and played a brand new Martin D-28 right off the rack. The Gibson was gone that evening! As a working musician, none of the instruments I use are more than 10 years old, all bought brand new.
p>There's little reason to spend the thousands for a "vintage" instrument with the quality of affordable instruments available these days. With a little patience, you can go through a number of instruments on any given rack (depending upon your budget) and come away with a truly fine NEW instrument for a fraction of a "vintage" costing sometimes thousands more. A guitar that's brand new, is yours personally, without having its innards swapped out, and without the "buckle-rash" of its previous owner. Some new guitars are classics right now, just hanging there waiting for owners. br> --
