Well, I guess we all disagree don't we?
The ONLY reason one could possibly come up with for voting for Rudy if you are not a conservative, is the belief that there is no other viable candidate out there and you wanted to stop Hillery or Obama.
The race is just getting started, and I think Rudy will eventually loose ground to other candidates once his views on social issues, which are in conflict with MOST Americans, MOST Republicans, ALL conservatives, and MOST people in this forum, are better know by the voters.
I do believe Rudy is the only Republican that can beat Hillary. Rudy is a conservative on fiscal, domestic, and foreign policy and supports strict constructionist judges and is a very strong and competent leader. Plus, the President has very little influence on social issues. I truly believe Rudy will win the nomination. There is really nobody else out there viable IMO.
