There are many solid Republicans who do not support such amendment to the US Constitution. I asked you where either man supports gay marriage.

Sorry, but I believe it is a great thing when a Republican has the ability to chip away at "Democrat" issues. Democrat issues are not issues that concern only Democrats. They are issues of concern to all and where we hope that the solutions are Republican- and not Liberal. The only way that will happen is if there is a Republican in office.

C'mon. You and I both know that neither man has banning gay marriage as part of their agenda.

Regardless of how one feels about the Federal Marriage Amendment, the larger concern to the public is judicial appointments. Given that the courts run roughshod over states' rights, Americans want a president who will appoint pro-traditional marriage judges and justices to the bench.

Giuliani and McCain will be a hard sell to the public on that one.

Republicans might as well go with someone who is trustworthy on that issue. Play it safe. Why take a risk?

Triangulation is not a winning strategy for Republicans.

Bush thought he could triangulate with education and the prescription drug plan. Big-time losers. Some states even repudiated his No Child Left Behind Act, with Republicans taking the lead against it.

When you try to please everyone, you end up pleasing no one.
