I think the biggest obstacle to Rudy's campaign is the huge impact the next POTUS will likely have on the Supreme Court. If it wasn't for that, I think you could make a strong case that Rudy's liberal views on social issues could be sufficiently countered by conservatives in Congress.

Did you see Rudy's latest comments on the type of justices he would appoint. All are strict constructionist..the kind who will NOT interfere with the WoT, and will vote to toss out Roe...

FYI..I pinged areafiftyone, hoping she can give you a link to his comments...tex and video..

Spot on. If not for my concerns about SCOTUS, I would be a 100% Rudy supporter. Right now I'm about 85% because there are no other viable options.

I think as a lawyer who went after the mob, Rudy respects the law. He's said that he will appoint strict constructionists and that Alito and Roberts are his dream judges.

It's a crapshoot; with Reagan we got 2 crummy Supreme Court judges.
