This article isn't about Giuliani's very questionable stand on gun rights. In the primary, it should hurt him, no question. In a general election again you have to ask whether the Democrat would be any better on gun rights, and where the one-issue gun rights voters would go. I can tell you this - your typical suburban female swing voter in places like the Philadelphia suburbs supports some form of gun control. Despite the prevalent view on Free Republic, thanks to years of liberal brainwashing on gun control, guns are icky to a large portion of the public, especially suburban female swing voters.

So, you admit that Giuliani is a gun grabber. But you seem to want to tailor our candidates to appeal to the typical, liberal brainwashed suburban female who thinks that guns are "icky". If you do that, then you'll be running liberal candidates. And what will that get you?

I don't think I ever said Giuliani wasn't for gun control. His record speaks for itself.

But you seem to want to tailor our candidates to appeal to the typical, liberal brainwashed suburban female who thinks that guns are "icky". If you do that, then you'll be running liberal candidates. And what will that get you?

I don't want to tailor "our" candidates to appeal to anyone. I am merely pointing out the facts - suburban female voters tend to support gun control. And in states like Pennsylvania, suburban female voters are the ultimate swing voters. Pennsylvania elections are won or lost in the Philadelpia suburbs.
