I will vote for the party candidate. Perhaps the "liberals are salivating" in public but quaking in private. They know their "reactions" to candidates may influence some people. Frankly I think they are scared witless over Rudy because they know he will draw a lot of their voters who are primarily concerned with terrorism.
I learned many, many, many... years ago, You can't have everything. There is no ideal candidate who will/can be all things to all people. I want my children and grandchildren--and everyone else's--to have a burkha-free future and not live in a caliphate. That's my only requirement period.
Hey, good to see you!
