I understand what you're saying...I just hope and pray that there is another candidate who can beat Hitliary and the horror she represents.
I don't like any of the current candidates...Newt was a pig towards his wives, Brownback and Huckaby are kowtowing towards the appeasers, Duncan Hunter has no chance on Earth, Tom Tancredo has no chance.
What we need is a miracle from God, a Reagan sort of candidate who will come forward and run. I'd love to see someone like Fred Thompson or Dick Cheney run, but it ain't gonna' happen.
My girlfriend was born and raised in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, her Mom was a precinct worker, and we went back and forth to NYC during Giuliani's reign, so I got to know NYC's politics pretty good, and Giuliani WAS a hell of a good mayor.
He broke the back of the mob. Even as a prosecutor when he went after the five families and broke their connections to the construction, waste hauling, and garment industries and drove them out of the Fulton Fish Market.
He cleaned up the horrible subways, drove down crime, cleaned up Times Square and made the city a wonderful place to live again.
BUT he had personal peccadilloes like his disgusting treatment of his wife, Donna Hanover. True, she is a relentless V Monologues liberal who treated him rather shabbily, but he taunted her with his mistress and tried to run her out of their home.
And he is a very liberal Republican. He saw nothing wrong with outlawing handguns and was a hero of the abortion industry.
I just cannot conceive of myself voting for a man who is so far to the left, even though I loved him as NYC's mayor.
Ed
I don't know Ed, when the primaries are over and if he is the only candidate left standing, I will vote for him. There is no way I will give this country over to full Democrat control in this dangerous time we live in.
This is a case where voting your "PRINCIPALS" might get you killed as well as countless thousands or millions of other people.
