I see this takes some hand-holding for the average Rudy-booster.
If the GOP runs a pro-choice candidate and the Dems run a pro-choice candidate, there is no reason for a pro-life Dem to switch parties.
That should be obvious. It's scary that it isn't for so many Rudy boosters.
If the Ds run a flip-flopper like Hilly, and the Rs run 'Americas Mayor' who has a rep for doing a great job cleaning things up -- there are many, many Ds who will cross over.
You're pretending Rudy has *no* other plusses.
You're clearly dead wrong.
