I wont vote for Rudy under ANY circumstances.

If the Republicans want my vote, they had better nominate both a fiscal and a social conservative.

Oh brother .... more of the same worn out compromised dribble.


Yaawwwwwwnnnnn.

I have NO Plans on voting for a baby killer and a homo advocate. Compromising LIKE THIS is what got us into this situation - moral free fall.

[SierraWasp]

Yeah... The author kinda makes me "shiver" alright!!!

"trust Gulliani to appoint strict-constructionaist judges"

ROFLOL! I trust him about as much as most social liberals, which about the same as Hillary and Obama.

[rightinthemiddle]

Wrong. He can do something important: Oppose it publicly.

Oopsie..

"I wont vote for Rudy under ANY circumstances.

I'll second that motion.

"I have NO Plans on voting for a baby killer and a homo advocate."

Nor do I, despite the increasing crap heaped up by Rudy lovers from FR.

I expect a lot of folks who think of themselves as principally social conservatives and pro-lifers will vote for Mr. Giuliani.

I wouldn't at all be surprised if a majority of these folks vote for Mr. Giuliani.

But I wouldn't be surprised if a substantial minority (and possibly a majority of social conservatives) did not vote for him.

And that translates into many millions of votes.

Including mine.

"If the Republicans want my vote, they had better nominate both a fiscal and a social conservative."

SAME here!

I am sick and tired of this compromise crap. The "big tent" was a figment of someone with an ILLOGICAL imagination. It doesn't work. I see little difference between him and a Demoncrat - the only difference I can see is how fast do you want to create total hell in the U.S.? Demoncrats will do it faster. Rudy and Demoncrats have the same LACK of moral values and beliefs.

Good reasons to vote for him in the general election perhaps, but I see no reason to comprimise now, when the primaries haven't even started.

Why I - a Staunch Pro-Lifer - am NOT Voting for Guiliani:

There are plenty of other, well qualified, electable, conservative, pro-life candidates running.

If we HAVE to hold our nose and vote for a pro-abort in the GENERAL election to "Stop Hillary", so be it. But in the primary, there's absolutely NO good reason for any self-described pro-lifer to support a pro-abortion candidate when credible pro-life alternatives are running.

[nmh]

Isn't it sickening?

Next they'll get all hurt when you call attention to the fact that they are really immoral liberals in denial. They DISUST me.

[Alberta's Child]

This sure doesn't sound like a "staunch pro-lifer" to me.

Sounds like a soccer mom with an IQ of 80.

[The Blitherer]

I'm sure the intent of this article was to convince pro-lifers that they can vote for Rudy in good conscience. Unfortunately the arguments were so weak I feel all the more strongly about my own conviction to not vote for an anti-life candidate.

As for the war being the most important issue right now, I disagree. I am starting to come to the conclusion that if we continue to allow the slaughter of babies by the millions, do we really have a society worth saving?

No vote for Rudy here. Three major issues of mine he has struck out on. Those that will compromise their core values never had any to begin with.

[BillyBoy]

>> Nor do I, despite the increasing crap heaped up by Rudy lovers from FR. <<

I really don't get where the heck all the "conservative" support for Rudy is coming from. It's like something out of the twilight zone. Their main arguement is that Rudy would be "better" than McCain, AS IF those were the only two Republicans running. Even if kooky premise came to pass and those were the ONLY names on the ballot, have they checked Rudy's record? He's to the LEFT of McCain! Earth to Rudy "conservatives", please come in.

[BallyBill]

How are people voting in an election that is over a 1 1/2 years away?

I may wait and see who all is running before I cast my vote in the Fall of 2008!!!!!
