Giuliani should be proud to have a supporter like you! :)
I just don't buy the argument sorry. IF WE DID NOT HAVE ANY OTHER CANDIDATES (if that was possible), I could see us social conservatives considering Giuliani or Romney (not McCain! :), but WE HAVE CHOICES... GOOD CHOICES I might add... Do you know what I mean?...
Now, I think everybody should be able to make arguments for our favorites, just like you and I do, and let people decide. We forget we are still TWO YEARS AWAY from the election... well, at least one year anyway... So we have plenty of time to discern and examine each candidate's record to death. That does not mean that if we see that your side is sugar coating over issues (Pro abortion, pro homosexuals... and God know what would happen with the homos in the Military with this guy (a chance we can NOT take), anti-gun, etc, etc, etc.)... we are going just to let it go.. No! We should be as nice as possible, but we must bring those issues into the open... Because what we say here - as you know you know - goes far beyond FR...Which by the way, it is my main objective.
Also, we should remember we are on the same team... Or not?... MY tag has never changed... and it will remain the same for as long as I participate on FR. Because if we can not talk among ourselves in a 'conservative' forum... If we can not give each other a little bit of leeway... Where can we go then?
You know, in all honesty, I am just wondering, if you can find so many good things about Giuliani and somehow minimize the bad ones, how come you are no crazy about Duncan? Oh... That is not well known enough? What kind of a silly argument is that?..:) Rember Carter? Slick? and with today's communications, Duncan WILL BE KNOWN TO EVERYONE soon enough, you'll see.
Sorry to be so long... That is the punishment to those of us who do not master the English Language... Too late for me :)
Thank you for the compliment. And I harbor no ill feelings toward you and I'm glad to know that we can respectfully disagree. We are, like you said, in the end on the same side. I think Duncan Hunter would make a good President but at least in my honest opinion I just don't believe he can win the general. I think, right now and things could change particularly if, I pray, the President's new Iraq strategy is successful, that McCain and Giuliani are the only ones that can win the general. But like I said, maybe things will change between now and next year and I might think differently but not at this point.
Which one of those "choices" can get elected?
Maybe I could be a little nicer. Though it is quite hard to be nice to liberals and their supporters.
