Ask yourself: "What judges will Hillary put on the Supreme Court"? THAT is what will make a difference for the next 50 years.
Not me.
Rudy or Hillary may very well win the presidency.
In both cases that would put a left wing gun grabbing abortion loving, gay friendly liberal in the whitehouse.
Come 2008, Ill cast my vote for a conservative.
I surely hope that a conservative wins the Republican nomination. If not, a conservative will still win my vote.

When I ask myself, who of all the candidates in both parties do I most trust to keep me and my children safe? The answer is instantaneous, deeper than the level any particular policy debate can go: Rudy Giuliani
Thinking Hard About Voting For Rudy Guiliani
The Bulletin ^ | Feb. 22, 2007 | Maggie Gallagher
the whole ball of wax. bump.
And because of this alone, Rudy will demolish clinton (if Geffen and Obama haven't already done so).
"So I could have sworn, even a few months ago, that I'd never vote for Rudy Giuliani, in spite of my deep respect for his considerable achievements as mayor. So why would I even think of changing my mind? Two things: national security, and Hillary Clinton's Supreme Court appointments.
"Ask yourself: "What judges will Hillary put on the Supreme Court"? THAT is what will make a difference for the next 50 years."
GRRRRR. Hillary-scaremongering. This is the most empty-headed fatuous argument you could POSSIBLY make. Rudy is not facing Hillary in the primary -he is facing Romney, McCain, Huckabee, Hunter, maybe Newt and others. ... and this comment ....
"I never voted for Rudy when I lived in New York City for one simple reason: abortion. I don't look for purity in politicians, just for some small pro-life reason to vote for a guy: Medicaid funding, parental notification, partial birth abortion. Throw me the slightest lifeline, otherwise I assume he just doesn't want the vote of people like me. Rudy never did. So I never gave him my vote. And of course it doesn't help now to recall the way Rudy treated his second wife, nor do I particularly want to imagine the third Mrs. Giuliani as Laura Bush's successor."
... THESE FACTS ALONE IS WORTH A GOOD DROP IN HIS POLL NUMBERS. We are rpeatedly told newt is 'unelectable' for his divorces, and yet Rudy has had worse in his personal life. He will lose pro-lifers, evangelicals, and he will lose the women vote.
We are supposed to forgive him on it because he is a social liberal. uh huh, that will surely keep the evangelical vote solid. (Most of whom know little about this stuff, and the media wont tell them until Rudy is locked down as the GOP candidate, and then the DNC dirt will fly.)
And it gets worse. ... HOW DO YO KNOW RUDY WONT NOMINATE A SOUTER?
Ask yourself: "What judges will Rudy put on the Supreme Court"? THAT is what will make a difference for the next 50 years.
Ask yourself: "What judges will Hunter put on the Supreme Court"? THAT is what will make a difference for the next 50 years.
Ask yourself: "What judges will Romney put on the Supreme Court"? THAT is what will make a difference for the next 50 years.
Ask yourself: "What judges will McCain put on the Supreme Court"? THAT is what will make a difference for the next 50 years.
Ask yourself: "What judges will Newt put on the Supreme Court"? THAT is what will make a difference for the next 50 years.
He's 'prochoice' and anti-gun and on many other issues not conservative. WE CANNOT TRUST RUDY ON THAT ISSUE. WE CAN TRUST OTHER CANDIDATES FAR MORE.
National security - what's so special about Rudy on national security, a man who has never held any federal office. So he dissed Arafat. He's also far more open borders pro-amnesty than other candidates. How helpful is that?
Everytime I read another 'conservative for Rudy' article, I get madder and madder at the fatuous and lame arguments.
They dont add up to anything but poor excuse for 'well, I'll overlook the obvious problems and maybe they will go away'. There is this bizarre and hidden desperation for some conservatives to abandon what they believe in. We will never have conservative govt if that path is taken. Geez, folks, it is simple math: Find a candidate you believe in who follows your vision of what ought to be and vote for him/her. To do anything other than that in the primary is to throw away your vote.
We have a year to think about it. A lot can happen in a year. In a day for that matter.
I will gladly support Hunter in the primaries, and Rudy in the general election. I DO NOT WANT HILLARY AS PRESIDENT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
It's hard to see a state that George Bush won in which Rudy Giuliani will not beat Hillary Clinton. And he will put a whole slew of new blue states into play: Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, to name just three. (The latest Quinnipiac poll shows Giuliani in a dead heat with Clinton in Connecticut.) Which puts people like me, who care very deeply about marriage and life issues, in the position of thinking hard about Rudy.
THIS is shear idiocy, period - end - stop.
As an upside, Rudy's nomination might finally destroy the GOP.
Pretty bad if you need to use hitlery to sell rudy.
This from a Freeper who helped pushed Schwarzenegger on us.
The thing I've noticed about FReeper supporters of Rudy...the majority of them are women or seem to use feminine nicknames.
The other thing I've noticed...this is not the forum I entered in 2004. It's no longer a conservative platform. It's dominated by RINOs, East Coast RINOs who think they and their New York candidate know what's good for the rest of us. Who knew that FReepers supported abortion, gun control and homosexuality? I've seen every excuse for this man with all his liberal philosophies. It's sickening, and there's a long haul to go before it finally ends. By that time, you won't know the difference between FR and DU.
I've already thought this through. I could never vote for Rudy in the primary. He's far too socially liberal.
