“when other candidates do it, theyre pandering.”
If Rudy had changed his position on abortion, say 3 years ago, and was very public about it it might fly. In the middle of a campaign, I don’t think so...
I am sincerely afraid to vote for a man with cancer, no matter how not serious,So you've ruled out Fred and Rudy, correct?
Well, if we are ruling nominees out for that reason let's not forget that the dimwit nutjob McCain had melanoma skin cancer.
I forgot about that. That was funny.
how has rudy changed on abortion?
If that does not happen and a Rudy based team gets it, I don't know what I will do when voting day comes.
No, they’ve learned their lesson about your sit at homers.
Doing a profile search, I still get: Nobody by that name. Weird.
From what I’ve read FDT is more likely to die of old age / natural causes than he is of his type of cancer.
'Cause its the truth!
>>>>> ..... without mentioning his outstanding fiscal conservative positions and tax cutting policies ...
When Rudy left office, he left NYCity straddled with a $2.0 billion deficit and an increased debt reaching $42 billion. Rudy didn't reduce the size of the city government. Rudy added 15,000 new teachers to the city employment rolls, making the NEA and the AFT very happy.
When Rudy left office NYCity was still the highest taxed big city in America. A liberal-socialist hell hole.
>>>>> .... and his strength in terms of national security and hating the Arab jihadists.
LMBO You've got to be joking. Rudy has no special talents or abilities in the area of natl defense or natl security. And lotsa Americans hate the Jihadists!
Illegal immigration and the 2nd amendment have nothing to do with social issues.
Those who may support a Republican nominee that you are against will not be supporting infanticide, Einstein.
LOL. Too many around here would like to forget that.
THe love affair of conservatives with Fred Thompson is the last straw I think for them, they expected we'd have to fall in line with no good conservatives getting any traction (BTW, something that they are working hard to maintain, trashing every conservative whenever there's any movement).
They didn't see Fred coming, and now he's viable and they are trying to knock him down but not succeeding. And they have gotten increasingly harsh about it, saying more stupid things by the day. And they are bitter because they don't understand how a person like Fred Thompson who is not 100% conservative is getting all the love from conservatives while their Rudy, who they love, can't get any traction.
I don't know what it is about Rudy that attracts them, especially the women (PhiKapMom was nearly swooning with exitement over having been in the same room with Rudy, that was in her last post to the site before she ran off without being banned).
I keep forgetting about John Ketting McCain.
I believe you've come to the wrong conclusion regarding the FR poll. I voted for Fred Thompson in this poll but I will vote for whoever is the Republican nominee. Most of us would prefer a conservative candidate but staying home or voting third party is out of the question. No way will I put Hillary in charge of our military. NO WAY!
LOL!! Are you going to join the All New Idaho FR Ping List or will this be contingent on us hiring Gruden back? ;)
