So far, that is the problem with the mentionables on both sides. None of them seem to be garnering more than about 40%, not general nor within their own party.

Most of the general public are of the mindset that November 08 is still too far away to bother with all the wannabes.

At this stage, all the polls and article and predictions and blogs about this candidate or that candidate are just exercises. The general votership won't start paying much attention until the party debates and primaries actually begin.

I disagree. When Rudybots post article after article here promoting RINO Rudy, it annoying and irritating--that's spam!

If you don't like the thread, just feel free to walk on by. We won't miss you, really.

I suggest you reconsider after reading the following Comments from Guiliani:

"Most of Clinton's policies are very similar to most of mine." - Rudy Giuliani

Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do and how you do it. Rudy Giuliani

Also look at the list below showing Guiliani's socialist stance on many issues

When you see a Rudy thread - why do you open it? Moreso, when you know the anti-Rudy crowd hangs out on a Rudy thread pushing their cheap meat/spam into everyone's face.

A spam post is like a tree falling in a forest that no one hears. It is really the null set. Nobody pays it any mind. It just wastes bandwidth. Narses is spending a lot of time with an endeavor that signifies next to nothing with her methodology. It persuades no one to change their mind about anything; indeed after the tenth time, it informs no one as well.

Explain to me, if you will, why you don't consider the ceaseless posting of pro-Rudy articles spam, but everything that's posted by our side is called spam?

Wow - what a spin. You could try out for a liberal(s). Spam has a definition - it is posting the exact same thing over and over. Posting new articles on the same subject is not spam.

And - you are free to not click on Rudy threads. Imagine that(s).

I think you are annoying and irritating. What should we do - call you spam?

actually the consistent posting of SPAM and the visceral hate of the anti Rudy folks kind of pushed me into supporting Rudy.

Thank you. I've read them several times. They are impossible to miss. : ) I still say he's a Liberal.

It amazes me how far down the sewer the GOP has gone to even consider a candidate like Giuliani. By all accounts he should be running on the other side. Heck even the Dems have candidates that take more conservative stands than Giuliani does. No way he wins an election anyways. Won't get the Christian vote due to his pro-abortion views. Won't get the vote from those of us who actually believe in the constitution, especially those of us who hold the 2nd Amendment as sacred which it is. Nope no chance. Only good from this is that the GOP will go down in flames in 08 and hopefully regroup and get back to real conservative values and candidates.

I agree. Spam, name calling and personal attacks do not change any minds - except I have heard of people getting so sick of it that they decide to support Rudy. LOL

You're welcome. I agree he is a liberal, which is a euphemism for socialist.

"Spam has a definition - it is posting the exact same thing over and over."

I really don't think that is the definition of spam is it?

I would think it was something like an unwanted or unsolicited posts would be closer. Just because something is repeated does not make it spam unless it is unwanted or breaks some kind of rule that Jim has. Right?

Well, now that's funny because I didn't see you tell Dog Gone that even though he said the exact same thing I did in post # 54 (copied and pasted below).

Call me crazy, but my definition of spam is THE EXACT SAME POST being posted here endlessly. Like narses is doing right now on this thread.

New articles are not spam. They may be boring or annoying, but they're not spam.

If you're posting the EXACT DAMN THING you've posted 20 times before, that's spam.

That's kinda hypocritical of you to tell one of us to get lost, but not the other. The Rudybots have been preaching to us about how rude it is to tell someone to just go away, I guess you didn't get their memo. BTW, if Jim Robinson is willing to put up with you liberal loonies here without telling them to go away, maybe you should be as gracious as he is.
