Rudy Pumped Up in Florida

ABC News’ Jan Simmonds reports:  An extremely energized Rudy Giuliani took the stage Saturday at the Florida GOP Presidency 4 rally and was focused on the importance of Florida.

"In 2000, you saved us from Al Gore," said Giuliani wiping his brow in relief. "Well in 2008, we are gonna need you to save us from Hillary Clinton!"

Moving back and forth on the stage, like motivational speaker Tony Robbins, Giuliani told the Florida Republicans that the party can no longer cherry pick which states they would campaign in for the presidency. 

"The day after our convention, we cannot close our campaign office in Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, California, Washington, Oregon," said Giuliani in a quasi-Howard Dean moment. "And that’s what we’ve done for the last three or four campaigns.  We can’t do it anymore, we can’t afford to take the chance."

Giuliani told the crowd that if he is elected their nominee, his campaign would compete in all states.  And, he added, more importantly– they would win some of those states.

Going back to his time as Mayor of New York, Giuliani recounted the results he says he was able to bring to the Big Apple — cutting taxes, reducing crime and welfare among the items he rolled off.

"I’ve done the impossible and I’ll tell you why" said Giuliani. "Because I don’t give up.  Because I don’t take no for an answer. Because I fight hard for you. And I fight hard for the things that I believe in."

Rudy Giuliani though did not lose sight of the Democrats in his speech and implored the crowd not allow to "Hillarycare" to become a reality. "If somebody mandates healthcare, we become like Canadian healthcare, we become like French healthcare, we become like English healthcare, we become like Cuba healthcare," Giuliani warned the crowd.

"Do you believe like Michael Moore that healthcare is better in Cuba?" he asked the crowd.

"It now occurs to me, I’ve been looking at Michael Moore… and he gets his healthcare in Cuba," Giuliani added, to the roar of the crowd. He then detailed his own healthcare plan and $15,000 tax credit that goes along with it. 

Before saying goodnight to the crowd, Giuliani went back to the importance of Florida.  "The winner of the primary here in January, will win Florida in November.  And once again Florida is gonna give us the next president of the United States," said Giuliani.

"I need your support. I need your votes and we are gonna win Florida."
