I am ashamed to say, but I voted third party in 1992 (For Ross Perot) and I got Bill Clinton. I'll never do that again!

as a wake up call to conservatives, having Bill Clinton as president was a good thing. Look at what happened to Congress and the Senate because of him.

I held my nose and voted for Bush senior in '92 and I feel like I sold out.

Dear areafiftyone,

"I am ashamed to say, but I voted third party in 1992 (For Ross Perot) and I got Bill Clinton. I'll never do that again!"

Well, shame on you. You deserted a center-right Republican to vote for a nutjob.

However, if Mr. Giuliani is nominated by the Republican Party, we won't have a center-right Republican, we'll have a moderate-to-far-left RINO.

At that point, it's shame on the party for nominating an outright liberal.

I will point out, however, that Mr. Bush, the father, made many of his own problems. He abandoned a big part of his base, and he paid the penalty. It may be regrettable that that's what happened, but it is to be expected. So, even though Republicans who voted for Mr. Perot bear heavy blame, Mr. Bush bears even heavier blame, in that his actions almost guaranteed that those whom he abandoned would abandon him.
