If you didn't throw it in before, you just did:

"You will find more and more conservatives supporting Rudy and probably McCain...

Hell, the primary season is just beginning. I'd hate for the media to call the Republican front runners in advance and see the conservatives jumping onto the moderate/liberal/traitor bandwagon before the battle has even begun.

Over the primary season, I will bet you will see it happen in state after state because they are afraid of Hillary and Bill getting near the WH. If Hillary or Obama were not running, then I would say Rudy or McCain didn't have a chance, but then we still don't have good conservative candidates to run.

Truthfully speaking, I have looked at candidate after candidate that is out there and studied it for six weeks after Sen Allen was defeated with some other consultants and we cannot come up with one that can come up with major bucks, win and draw in the indy and dem votes we need in the general. I keep coming back to the same conclusion. We have some of the weakest conservative candidates right now that I have seen. This primary season has launched early, going to need big bucks with big donors. Reason I am so convinced is that T. Boone Pickens and Tom Ricks owner of the TX Rangers are Rudy's major fundraisers in TX.

If you can find me a Conservative candidate other then the ones running including Newt that can raise money hand over fist and has charisma to win, I will support them in a minute. I think it is a sad state of affairs that we have not groomed a conservative candidate for 2008. Where are they?
