"The map would be redrawn for the worse, I fear."

Your concern is legitimate. However, Bush is no longer at the level of support he had in 2000 and 2004. It may be that conservatives need to think outside the box and take risks in choosing the 2008 Presidential nominee.

I would like to see the "Law and Order" candidate throw his hat in the ring.

"conservatives need to think outside the box and take risks in choosing the 2008 Presidential nominee."

Very very true.

I could not agree with you more. Mitt was my governor and he actually did the best that he could in this most socialist of states. He can't compare to the flip flops of J F'n K but I forgive him because he was running against Fat Head Ted at the time he made those statements.
He could never have been elected here in Moonbat hell.
I can't abide Mc Queeg, he is truly a nut.. waiting to be found by a blind squirrel.
Rudy is the Security man which may end up being what we need.
The days of single issue votes are over for now, the Libtards are back in power.
We need to consolidate and support once the primary is over.
If we lose this one, I believe we are truly doomed as a nation

George Allen and Rick Santuram both going down in flames in purple states has stunned the social conservative movement. They don't have a leader going into the game.

We know that Giuliani will stand up and do what he believes is right regardless of opposition. His record indicates that he will fight the war on terror and that he has actually cut government spending and red tape while cleaning up New York and making it a much more inviting place to live and do business. His strong support for Supreme Court Nominees like Scalia would make his long term impact on our government positive.

I tend to like Romney and believe that he would be strong in fighting the war on terror but he would probably be like Bush and go along with congress on the budget.

I would never vote for McCain after his taking the lead in ripping the First Amendment out of our Constitution.

Giuliani would draw a broad section of the middle to vote GOP. Romney has the looks and charisma to do the same. McCain might draw the middle but would be abandoned by too many conservatives to have a chance of winning.

You are probably correct in your assessment.
