“Buckley would go for the most conservative candidate that is electable.”

Didn’t Buckley himself run for mayor of NYC with no chance of winning? I guess he voted for the other guy...who had a better chance of winning.

Buckley was trying to split the vote with Lindsay who was the original RINO Republican so that the Democrat would win.

Better to be led by a Democrat that owns up to the fact, than a Democrat in drag.

He also support Joe Lieberman over the Pubbie incumbent US Senator. Can’t remember his name, but the guy went on to become the CT governor (I), that instituted the state income tax.
