Read all the polls. Rudy is the only electable Republican. I don't believe in litmus test and neither does Michael Reagan, Sean Hannity, or Rush Limbaugh, all smart, pragmatic, realistic conservatives. My base ball analogy does stand and is correct. Ronald Reagan believed in it.
Well, I do believe in some litmus tests as well as millions of other socons. Rudy fails those tests. Rudy would split the base, which is something the republican party cannot afford.
Now, I know you read my post because you're claiming that your baseball analogy still stands, and yet you skip over my perspective on the polls to tell me to read all the polls. In the sentence right before I say that your analogy falls apart, there is:
But if it's because you don't think Hunter is "electable", I'm not buying it. Rudy splits the base and didn't even win in a head-to-head poll against Hillary in his own state. He is not electable.
