We're speaking at cross purposes here.
I don't have any illusions about convincing single issue pro-gun, or single issue pro-life, or single issue pro-family voters that Rudy is "their guy".
He's not, quite simply. And if they can find a candidate to support who better reflects their values, by all means, support him or her.
My point is rather that the internecine savaging (of Giuliani or any other candidate) only serves whoever the dems put up. It serves no constructive purpose whatsoever. That was the reasoning behind Reagan's 11th commandment.
Boy, all of those "single" issues sure add up. Kind of like Juliani's marriages. They weren't really multiple marriages. They were just "single" ones in succession.
