I'm NOT a Rudy supporter... I'm just trying to get you to folks to undertstand that sitting out solves nothing. I'm also firm in my belief that candidates are incapable of splitting a party. The only people who can split a party are the folks too stubborn to set aside their concerns (typically over a single issue) for the sake of the party.

The party is split by the people who leave...it is 100% on thier shoulders. You will not change my mind on that point and you will not get me to accept any rationalization that justifies damaging the party.

***Looks like it would make a good tag line. Especially after looking at some of what you stir up on the Rudy threads.

I'm also firm in my belief that candidates are incapable of splitting a party.
***Oh, why didn't you say so, up front? You won't explore the analogy that I post, you're basically saying you won't listen because you're a "firm believer". If only we could get all of that out of the way then we wouldn't waste each other's time.

***Here, let me stop wasting your time. I'm a firm believer in knowing that once someone shows they have no intention of exploring the issue, I can't debate on an intelligent level with them and I consider it to be a waste of time. Why on earth would you spend 7 years on a socon forum trying to convince socons that they look at things the wrong way? What's in it for you?

***History would be the judge in that regard. When the Whig party broke up, it was the moralist anti-slavery wing of the party that carried it into the republican party and it was the reed-in-the-wind Whig lemmings like yourself who were credited with the destruction of the party. I will take you at your word that I will not change your mind on such points and wish you the best in your pursuit of changing socon minds, Don Quixote.
