Where are you from Mr. Marko? Giuliani may be a giant in New York, but if you recall, he was't even favored the beat Hillary for the Senate! If the Republicans ran him, that is the surest way to draw a significant candidate to run 3rd party. Giuliani is at heart a Democrat, heck he still endorses them regularly! With Giuliani on the top of the ticket, the base of the Republican party stays home and we lose Congress.
Giuliani:
|
The USA voters: |
| Pro partial-birth abortion |
overwhelmingly against PBA |
| Pro homosexual legal-civil unions |
overwhelmingly against homo-unions |
| On marriage #3 with messy divorces |
cheating against adultery, especially flagrant open adultery while in office |
| Marched in homosexual parades |
Disgusted by parades that feature NAMBLA |
Add to that he is anti-gun. Oh, and he is not much of a tax cutter from what I recall either. I don't know about you, but I am a Republican BECAUSE I am a conservative. Since this is "FREE REPUBLIC" and not "ANY REPUBLICAN IS BETTER THAN ANY DEMOCRAT," I will not support Giuliani and will vote 3rd party before I vote for him. Giuliani cannot win, and the only reason to run him would be to disenfranchise the base of the party. The Giulianis and the Christine Todd "It's My Party and I'll Cry If I want to, too" Whitmans have to repent, or find another home.
Giuliani would stomp any opponent from the DNC. His only problem is coming out of the GOP primaries. His stance on abortion and gun control has altered. From what i remember, i think he is becoming more gun rights oriented. I am not saying he's the best candidate on principles but he is far and beyond the leading candidate to beat a democrat in 08. Pence, Tancredo, etc etc are small fish. They dont have the financial capabilities or name recognition needed. They are a waste of time.
