Rudy Giuliani is thanking volunteers at his Orange County HQ in Winter Park, Florida.
"Thank you for your hard work very, very much," he says.
He looks at his wristwatch.
"One hour and 10 minutes to go," he says, "and then two hours and 10 minutes to go in the panhandle."
He sees a young woman wearing a T-shirt with a recognizable icon.
"'I love Rudy,'" he says, "oh, I thought it was 'I love New York.'"
"Same thing," says a young male volunteer.
He finds out where the college-age students are from. "All over," he says.
"Thank you very, very much," he says.
"Thank you," adds his wife, Judith.
"Thank you for running!" says a volunteer.
"We love you, Rudy!" exclaims another one, a young man with a deep voice.
Giuliani signs a few baseballs and then it's off to his Orlando hotel, site of his "victory" party.

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Tick tock:
"Like the sands through the hourglass, so run the days of our lives." I realize this pop-culture quote has little to do with Mayor Giuliani's campaign, but the comparison between his campaign and time running out is more than apt.

I know what you mean, wake up! I can't believe anyone in their right mind could possibly vote GOP after the last 8 years of Republican misrule.

Romney will never be elected. America is not ready for an android President.

Sounds like somebody's worked for "Mitt the Moron" before. I feel your pain, and can't understand how ANY true Republican can vote for this turd. The party has been hijacked by liberial RINO's. I'm going 3rd party if these jerks are nominated.

on another page someone wrote Go Romney! Go Romeny? Hope you all are in upper upper management because if you aren't you're fired. That is Romney plan: fire 'em all, and keep the management's salaries the same. Makes sense. Just keep firing folks and rehire at a lower wage and blame it on the economical troubles. Never dare to cut the CEOs hundreds of millions, like Mitt. Never cut bonuses for losing the company money. Never eliminate overlapping managers who do little but collect a check and ask the receptionist if anyone has called. Romney is typical top down, never get a drop to the bottom, super rich snobby fraud, who wants to come as close as he can to feudalism as is legally possible.
