Please stop trashing Rudy and pushing a unknown congressman.
Repub have got to stop destroying our own .
Do you know what the implication of a dem victory and control over all THREE houses would be ?
Free republic and talk radio would be shut down !
Think about that while you go on and on and on with the Rudy trashing. He is a decent guy and will protect our freedom of speech which is will be taken away in 2008 if Hillary is in charge !

Did you read a single word of my post?

Scan around and read my posts.

Please stop telling us that our candidate has already been picked.

If we want to get a grassroots movement out for a candidate we like - that's our business.

Stop trying to blackmail me into voting for someone I don't like before the primaries have even happened.

You are the one with the defeatist attitude.

THank you for your plain speech. Much needed and appreciated. I guess it will be rough two years here, but I just bought a brand new flak jacket and I am ready!

Listen. This is the primary. They have primaries for a reason. The reason is to debate the merits and qualifications and desirability of the men that throw their hat into the ring. It is the time for the various factions to try to push their parties in the direction they want them to go. And I dare say that the majority of freepers want to see the party and its candidate move right, not left.

There will be an emerging challenge to Rudy and McCain from the right wing of the party. It might be Newt, or it may be Hunter (as I hope). It is going to happen, it is the natural thing to happen in a free society. If Rudy weathers the storm well and comes out on top, many conservatives will still vote for him, noses plugged or not. Others will not. But I tell you what, if Duncan Hunter somehow manages to get the nod, ALL conservatives will vote for him. Perhaps the Log cabinites will sit it out.

Sorry, pal. Now is precisely the time to suss this out. I'm not lining up behind a liberal and you won't motivate me to vote for one based on fear.

If fear is all you got, move to the end of the line.

Electing liberal Republicans has basically destoyed the GOP here in New Jersey. If you want to take that "winning" strategy nationwide, you're welcome to try. But I'll denounce it every step of the way.

Please double tinfoil protection and reset all decoder devices. Thank you.

Please stop trashing Rudy and pushing a unknown congressman.

How is someone going to become known unless the grassroots pushes them?
--------------------------------------

Repub have got to stop destroying our own.

Last time I checked, this was a conservative forum, not a republican one.
--------------------------------------

Do you know what the implication of a dem victory and control over all THREE houses would be ?

Hmmm, a two term Republican president and control over both houses by the GOP just like after the last clinton?
-------------------------------------------

Free republic and talk radio would be shut down !

Really? Then why didn't they do that last time?
-------------------------------------------

Think about that while you go on and on and on with the Rudy trashing.

I think the owner of FR would understand the results of a dem victory pretty well, would you like to see some of his quotes about Rudy?
-------------------------------------------

He is a decent guy

To which of his 3 wives?
-------------------------------------------

and will protect our freedom of speech

Thats the first, what about the second?
-------------------------------------------

which is will be taken away in 2008 if Hillary is in charge

If she takes away the first amendment, the revolt against the dems will be so large that Republicans wil be in power for ages.

There is no way I can ever vote for Rino Rudy.

[stockstrader]

If you want to DIVIDE the Republican Party,,,have part of the traditional base UNenergized and sitting at home rather than working on a huge turnout (we all know that turnout won't make a difference, right?),,,have another part of the base sit at home or vote third party,,,

RUDY IS JUST THE MAN FOR THE JOB!!

Liberal Republicans are more dangerous than liberal democrats, because liberal Republicans BLUR the distinction between conservatism and liberalism, making liberalism more acceptable.

I will never vote for Guiliani.
