"Hannity begs Dobson not to make Hillary president" Title wrong, should read "Hannity begs Dobson to make Rudy President!"

It sounded more like a Rudy Giuliani campaign speech to me.

Sean loves this RINO.

I like Hannity and Dobson...But they’re both off base on this one.

Juli Annie ain't getting the nomination so hannity is indeed backing the wrong horse.

Not voting in this election because the GOP front runner may not support your every position is a vote for Hitlery and absolutely STUPID if you care anything about the future of this country.

I agree. Although I do not support Rudy’s social issues...I would vote for him if he got the nod.

Most of Rudy’s social issues that we are so worried about are state’s responsibilties, anyway.

Hannity may have been promised the WH Press Secretary job from Rudy if he wins.

Gun control & taxpayer funding of abortion go beyond states' issues.

Rudy's nominated = I vote 3rd party.

Good post. I do like both Hannity and Dobson but so often Reps shoot themselves in the collective foot like this. Dobson stating that he would not support the Republican nominee in the instances he and Hannity discussed is absurd. That’s absolutely giving a vote to Shrillary.

I like Rudy but do not want to see him as the Republican nominee, but not because of single issues. I look at the complete candidate and make my decision. I’m pro-life but I do not demand that every politician I support be pro-life. I prefer it and I pay attention to who is and who isn’t, but in the big picture we have to look past single issues and carefully chose the candidate who represents the best chance for keeping our great country going in the right direction.

Sean begged Ann Coulter as well, with the same lack of effect.

Both Dobson and Coulter were unable to get Sean to realise that we are still in the Primaries and therefore are choosing between REPUBLICAN candidates, and that later is when we support the Republican nominee against Hillary.

I was hopeful since so many conservatives were being obstinate about my favored candidate that Fred would be good enough to surpass him. But so far Fred has not done so, is not the uber-conservative that so many have made him out to be, and while I’ll be happy to compromise and support Fred more and more of the picky conservatives seem to be rejecting him, which puts us back at square one, trying to figure out which “conservative-enough” candidate we can coalesce behind to ensure that Rudy doesn’t get the nomination.

If Fred had been the guy that every conservative could hold their nose and support, we’d have our man. But he’s not, as seen by Dobson and Coulter’s rejection of him. Somebody’s going to have to give or we are going to lose.

Right now, there’s still a lot of posturing by both camps about how they “refuse” to support the other guy. Hopefully it’s just posturing, and once one or the other has won we can come together. The Dobson/Evangelical 3rd-party bid doesn’t sound like posturing, but maybe it is.

Heck, maybe they are just trying to get Fred to be a little more open about the importance of public faith in a leader, and a little more sympathetic to the obvious importance of protecting unborn human beings from being murdered in ANY state in the Union.

And maybe they just hope Fred will realise that having 50 different definitions for Marriage makes no more sense than it would to have each state decide on it’s own which side of the road we should drive on.

Boy, I'm not exactly sure (who can be) Hannity's expected gain with a President Rudy (nights in the Lincoln Bedroom, weekends at Camp David).

Hannity has signed on to Rudy's campaign and as such, Rudy's campaign needs to be paying for the service as should the rest of the MSM's role for Her "Thighness (M. Levin)."

Make no mistake about it, these candidates and influential political activist leaders who threaten to not support the Party’s nominee are playing political extortion to gain policy concessions or angle for a key appointment. They know very well that if they succeed in pulling away even a moderate fraction of voters from the Republican presidential candidate (and down-ballot Republican candidates that benefit from straight ticket votes), they likely will had the Democrats the win, since recently the margin of victory in many elections is within a few percent.

A true Republican or conservative would not willingly hand power over to liberal Democrats, who are guaranteed to work against our values. Political suicide is not in our nature, nor condoned in our religious teachings, nor consistent with our Constitution. Leave the futile political statements to those not fortified with a higher purpose.
