Okay, you posted my statement and the facts to back it up. The same facts I used, btw.

Now how about answering the data contained in youtr post at #167. I'm curious to see where it all came from.

Ya, the numbers really "explain" the 4.5% swing away from the GOP (9% total). Note too that liberal turnout was down, not up.

I might be more inclined to accept your request and spend the time documenting my comments, if you had better manners. But you don't, so I won't. Feel free to ignore it. Thanks.

I just found this article. I thought this thread was a good place to post it. Suggest all conservatives archive it and use it when the liberal Rudy-rooters spew their nonsense about Rudy not being pro-abortion. Heck, even loony lefty Tom Daschle was opposed to partial birth abortion, but Giuliani supports it.

Giuliani is Pro-Abortion
Republican National Coalition for Life
New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani is popular in the big apple because he is credited with reducing crime and cleaning up Times Square, among other accomplishments. Now at the end of his career as Mayor (he is prevented by law from seeking another term), Giuliani is traveling about the country giving speeches and acting like a potential candidate for something. Pundits are speculating that he might be interested in a vice presidential spot on a ticket possibly headed by Texas Governor George W. Bush.
Although he doesn’t talk about it in conservative circles, Mayor Giuliani is pro-abortion. Columnist Thomas Edsall wrote this in the Washington Post on December 30, 1997: “Giuliani defended President Clinton when he was criticized by the Vatican earlier this year for his veto of the ban on the late-term abortion procedure. Giuliani is on record saying New York state law should not be changed to outlaw the procedure.”
More recently, Liz Trotta had this to say in the Washington Times (8/25/98): “Thirty years ago, Rep. Peter King, a GOP congressman from Long Island worked alongside Mr. Giuliani when they were interns in Richard M. Nixon’s law firm. In those days, Mr. King recalled, the mayor was a “radical left” supporter of activists like Stokely Carmichael and H. Rap Brown. “He didn’t think much of Republicans then,” said Mr. King, “except maybe Rocky” — former Governor Nelson Rockefeller of New York. Citing the mayor’s stands on abortion and homosexual rights, Mr. King described Mr. Giuliani as “too liberal” and “too temperamental” to be a GOP presidential choice.
The vice president is a heartbeat away from the presidency. Candidates for both offices must be judged by the same criteria — they must have respect for the sanctity of human life and be committed to protecting the God-given right to life. Mayor Giuliani, Governor Christine Todd Whitman of New Jersey, former Governor Pete Wilson of California, all of whom hold the same pro-abortion views as Bill Clinton, do not deserve the presidential or vice presidential nominations of the Republican Party because they oppose the first principles upon which our great nation was founded.
