On Judges alone your theory falls to pieces.

Most of what Christian Conservative loath has been imposed on them by Judges, not Legislation. Letting Hillary appoint the next 3 SC Justices would set the Value Voters back 40 years. or more on Life issues

Christians have a strong influence in whom the GOP pick for Judges. Any Republican President is going to have to run for re-elections, he cannot afford to piss off the Value Voters.

Value Voters will have NO influence with a Hillary Regime

On judges alone I fail to see how Rudy helps at all.

“...most of Giuliani’s judicial appointments during his eight years as mayor of New York were hardly in the model of Chief Justice John Roberts or Samuel Alito — much less aggressive conservatives in the mold of Antonin Scalia.”

...of the 75 judges Giuliani appointed to three of New York state’s lower courts found that Democrats outnumbered Republicans by more than 8 to 1. One of his appointments was an officer of the International Association of Lesbian and Gay Judges. Another ruled that the state law banning liquor sales on Sundays was unconstitutional because it was insufficiently secular.
A third, an abortion-rights supporter, later made it to the federal bench in part because New York Sen. Charles E. Schumer, a liberal Democrat, said he liked her ideology.
Cumulatively, Giuilani’s record was enough to win applause from people like Kelli Conlin, the head of NARAL Pro-Choice New York, the state’s leading abortion-rights group. “They were decent, moderate people,” she said.

So you’d marginalize the value voters by electing Guiliani then worry about our votes in future elections? Huh?
