Not particularly. There are MANY things I don't like about Rudy. But if push came to shove... and the choice was Rudy or Hillary. Guess who you would vote for. And as it appears, that is where this is going.
Well, if you prefer to jump on the bandwagon and let the media lead you down that road, bon voyage.
But I'd feel like a hypocrite if I just talked about being a conservative, and when the time came to put action to words I just followed the path of political expediency.
If you don't stand up for your principles before the race has even started, why even bother? What do you have to lose by taking a stand with conservative candidates in the formative days before the primaries even begin?
If you don't stand for something, you'll probably fall for anything!
It's only 'where this is going' if you let it. Why are you insisting that the choice this early in the process is Rudy vs. Hillary? If there's going to be pushing and shoving, why not push/shove the GOP back to the right where it belongs and put forward a candidate with Conservative values?
Oh, I know. It's not cool to stand up for principles. Rudy's cool, man. He could get elected by Dims and Pubs, but only because he's willing to compromise, not because he explicitly states where he stands, like, say, Ronald Reagan did...even though he can indeed be quite eloquent.
Are you ashamed of what you believe is right? Then jump on the bandwagon with Rudy and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Liberals and RINOs who are afraid as well. You can just relax and let your spine go all jellyfish because everyone else will be proudly 'multi-partisan' right there with you.
