Giuliani Now Confirmed for Value Voters Event
October 8, 2007
Rudy is in. It’s official. The Family Research Council just sent out this press release. See below:
Today FRC Action announced that GOP presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani will speak at the Washington Briefing 2007: Values Voter Summit on Saturday morning October 20. Former Mayor Giuliani becomes the eighth presidential hopeful to commit to address the largest gathering of pro-family activists in the nation's capital.
In addition to the GOP presidential candidates, the speaker line-up includes Sean Hannity, Newt Gingrich, Chuck Colson, Gary Bauer, Bishop Harry Jackson, Alan Sears, Mark Levin, Roger Hedgecock, Rich Lowry, Paul Weyrich, Dr. Richard Land, John Fund, Ed Meese, Ben Stein, Rabbi Daniel Lapin, Representatives Marsha Blackburn and Jean Schmidt, Star Parker, Phyllis Schlafly, Senator Rick Santorum, Michael Steele, Father Frank Pavone, Bill Bennett, and Judge Robert Bork.
The Brody File has also received this from Katie Levinson, the Communications Director for the Giuliani campaign:
“Rudy is very much looking forward to the event.”
And with those words, all eyes will now be on this event. I am told Giuliani will speak Saturday morning. There will be a straw poll at the event and the results will be announced sometime Saturday afternoon.
You can say whatever you want about Giuliani but give him this much: he’s not backing down. This is typical of him and his campaign. They will not concede the social conservative vote. They believe (as documented in this space before) that they can win over quite a few social conservatives. They are not rolling over.
I think I need to change my weekend plans. I’ll be there at the event. I’ll have to do Chuck-E-Cheese with the kids another weekend. Maybe they’ll want to come here Rudy speak? Well, maybe not. By the way, what song do you vote for to sum up Rudy's appearance? Do you think this one works? Or how about this one?
