How about supporting a conservative for a change?

I'd be happy to. I'd vote for Hunter, Rudy, McCain, Romney or Tancredo with pleasure against any of the Democratic front runners.

Unfortunately, the "true believers" on the right would rather stay home and pout if their man doesn't win. That's why I say "true" conservatives are political idiots.

Of all the one mentioned there are only three I can not vote for Rudy McRomney. If any of those three win the nomination I will be heading thrid party.

I've always thought that idealists were more dangerous than pragmatists. Idealists (on both sides of the aisle) vote their conscience all the time, win or lose. Pragmatists realize that they can't have their way all the time, and vote for the "lesser" of any potential "evils."

I am a pragmatist, and I will proudly cast a vote for Rudy Giuliani if he's the GOP nominee. I voted for him here in NYC (he was the best mayor this city has had in my almost 50 years of existence), and I'd be happy to vote for him again.
