Okay. My mistake.
Registered, have you discerned why Rep. Hunter didn't vote.
No..."if so be it" is a stupid, selfish, immature response.
It amounts to "I don't care what happens to the country if I don't get my way."
I noticed that you made no attempt at actually telling me HOW the're about the same.
Like it or lunk it this is how I am voting.
Listen, the guy is running as a HUGE pro-lifer, yet this vote, probably one of THE most important pro-lifes because of the critical nature of the situation, wasn't enough motivation for him to cast a vote. Unless he was in the hospital I find the no vote inexcusable. Sorry if that offends you.
"There's NO WAY that you can convince me that Rudy is a worse option than those two."
I'm sure you would be happy with any of them since they all are with you on the open borders thing.
Hunter / Tancredo '08
Rudy will never be POTUS. You RuBots have caught a severe case of the "Katherine Harris" syndrome, and you intend to ride that horse over a cliff just like they did in Florida.
"Why do you have such a problem with people being able to see other issues as a priority in this election cycle?"
I don't. I just believe Tancredo or Hunter would be much better with the issues important to me as well as the issues important to all Americans. What people have done is a better indicator of what their future actions will be than what they say during primaries.
Remember the old song? Don't pull on Superman's cape, Don't spit into the wind? Well if you read the polls taken here concerning Rudy the idiot, you would realize you are dealing with over 60 percent of the people who post here. So, yes, you can expect a few Rudy bashers, as you call them, to show up. What a dork.
Anyone who likes Rudy is a liberal whether they realize it or not. Rudy IS A LIBERAL, he is the same as a Democrat, he epitomizes the word RINO but you Rudybots can't see that. Somehow you think electing a liberal that has an R after his name is better than electing one with a D after his/her name.
The truth is we need a REAL conservative in the WH, and yes they are electable, if they weren't, RR would never have been elected. Whine all you want, but this idiotic obsession with Rudy will split the party and let Hitlery, or whom ever wins the Dem nomination, walk into the WH.
Then we agree, everyone should vote for the candidate he or she believes best represents them on the issues important to them, and everyone else should respect their decisions.
Ok, I won't tell if you don't tell! Let's keep it our little secret... all very hush, hush!
Rudy is pro-gay. Rudy is a gun grabber, Rudy is a liberal first class. The reason you aren't "going to do his homework(stm's)for him" is because Rudy is all the stm says, and more and you have no way to prove otherwise. A few speeches made now to try to cover his ass doesn't mean he has changed. You can't be for abortion and against it. He has clearly laid out how he stands on firearms, abortion and his other left of center(and has stated he is left of clinton on some matters)ideas. A true RINO in every sense of the word. Try not to lie any more than you have to, ok?
"Then we agree, everyone should vote for the candidate he or she believes best represents them on the issues important to them, and everyone else should respect their decisions."
Yes, however, those who believe that a liberal can best represent their interests should probably look for a non-conservative website to express those liberal viewpoints.
Then I will respect their decisions.
Divorce only matters when it involves a politician they DON'T like. The rest of the time it's perfectly acceptable.
Another one telling us if we dont believe in their definition of a conservative we don't belong here. So much for respecting the opinions of others. Somehow I knew it was too much to ask.

Ronald Reagan had phenomenal personal charisma, executive experience as the governer of a large state, and the good fortune (after a manner of speaking) to follow Jimmy Carter into the White House.
Reagan had run in '76, too, you'll recall, and at that time he couldn't even beat FORD in the primaries.
If he hadn't had the great speaking ability and the provable executive experience, he might very well have lost to Carter in '80 as well, despite the clear principles.

Somebody yesterday posted FR's mission statement and asked "where does Rudy fit in"?
After reading it, Giuliani was spot on on the entire first paragraph, matched word for word the second half of the first sentence in the second paragraph, and scored about 80% good on the remainder.
I've said repeatedly that Guiliani would be my third choice to be nominated.
If the arrogant surity and snide commentary that you bring to the conversation is that of a "true conservative", then I'll be happy to see you take a hike.
