I don't blame you one bit for your principled stand, and wish you the best of luck as you decide who to support. If your candidate wins the primary, I'll be happy to support him. I am committed to Rudy and make no apologies for compromising my principles a bit to back the only guy other than McCain who the polls indicate can win in November. Like most Republicans, I smell Hillary's blood in the water, and I am not going to abandon the guy who put it there.
Dear massadvj,
Well, my post was actually about your statement:
"As I said. Imagine someone turning Washington DC into a financial stable, relatively peaceful urban oasis."
I was principally pointing out that in recent years, Washington, DC actually had taken a turn for the better, much better.
It was a secondary point that I don't vote for liberals for president.
"I am committed to Rudy and make no apologies for compromising my principles a bit to back the only guy other than McCain who the polls indicate can win in November."
Today's Rasmussen poll indicates that former Sen. Thompson, he of little name recognition - according to some, and unannounced status, holds up well against Mrs. Clinton and certainly shows he's in the ballpark against Mr. Obama.
As well, I suspect that as much as you smell Hillary's blood, so do many Democrats. My friends who work in low positions in high Democrat places tell me that the Democrat elite are, at best, unenthusiastic about her potential candidacy. Given the opportunity, they will throw her over.
Mrs. Clinton may yet win the nomination, but I wouldn't bet on it.
