I don't remember asking anyone to "walk lock step" with anyone. I've only advocated fairness and pragmatism in my defense(s) of Giuliani in these posts.

Exactly. What they 'demand' from one - they don't possess themselves as is evident by their posts. And that includes Romney with his low blow.

Thanks for your post - you, also, explained my position perfectly.
