The majority of conservative voters won't vote for either Rudy or McCain no matter what you believe because neither one of them is conservative enough. The majority of conservative voters would rather stay at home on election day than vote for those two. The remaining conservative voters, who wouldn't stay at home on election day, would end up either blanking the Presidential/Vice Presidential race, or vote for the Presidential/Vice Presidential candidates from either the Constitution Party or the Libertarian Party unless some strong Independent run by a conservative should also happen.

I didn't say I believed it. In this case what we want and what we get are going to be two different things. I see this as the most likely outcome at this point. Things could change I hope.

Currently all of the other Republican candidates are people I would have never heard of if it wasn't for Free Republic, and unfortunately not every Republican or Conservative comes here. They're going to have to fight an uphill battle in their campaigns for name recognition like Rudy and McCain already have.

If people throw a send a message tantrum vote like they did in the past congressional election then say hello to President Hillary or Obama.
