You are making the assumption that those people would vote for ANY Republican but Rudy. They won't they are the same malcontents who make these threats every presidential election and many are not even Republicans. Twenty per cent of the MOST conservative people on the most conservative site reflect in NO way the electorate. You are talking about 2% of the voters.
In addition, there will be 2 to 3 voters moving to Rudy for every one who pouts. What you are refusing to acknowledge is that the reason Bush barely won is because the country is NOT conservative. He could only win by appealing to voters BEYOND that 35% calling themselves "conservative". Rudy has FAR more appeal to independents and moderates than Bush ever did and Hillary will be even less appealing than Gore or Kerry.
Treason Media attacks have made conservatives "extremists" and toxic as the last election showed to any who care to think about the results.
