he deserves respect from Republicans for the great job he's done for the party for decades.

A RINO is one who does not believe in Republican principles set down by Republicans in their platform, but still calls themself a Republican.

I would respect him more if so many of the freepers, who are proud to be freepers wouldn't be promoting him so much.

So, anyone who disagrees with your dictates as to what constitutes a Republican is a traitor/RINO. As I stated before, Rudy stood by the Republican Party in the face of unrelenting hostility from DemonRats in NYC. It's very easy to be a Conservative when you are in an area of the country where you are surrounded by fellow Conservatives. I am a Conservative in an area of the country where the Left reigns supreme. NYC is a cesspool of Leftist insanity. Rudy did what he had to do to get the things he wanted done. He certainly was not a fake Republican like Bloomberg. Rudy got tremendous support from Staten Island Conservatives while he was Mayor. We helped to get him elected and re-elected. We loved him for his courage and strength in resisting the forces in this city that are now turning it back into a Leftist sewer.
