You are making several mistaken assumptions. The first is that Rudy Giuliani will win the nomination. That is what the primary season is all about. There are several candidates with much more conservative backing that have a very good chance at winning this. Fred Thompson is a good example.

Secondly, you are assuming that Rudy Giuliani is the ONLY candidate who can win as a Republican. Fred Thompson polls quite well against Hillary, and Rudy Giuliani is dropping now, and losing to Hillary at this point in time.

And thirdly, you are assuming that Hillary Clinton is the Democratic nominee. This is far from being decided at this early point.

The notion that anyone not supporting Giuliani is “a vote for Hillary” is total nonsense, and there is no proof that is the case. It is a lame attempt at scaring people into supporting Giuliani, nothing more.

Kindly point out where I said Rudy would win the nomination?

I just stated that, unlike you, I’m not willing to throw this country to the liberals because I don’t get my way; I’ll be voting for THE Republican nominee, regardless of who it is.

And of course if you don’t vote GOP, you ARE supporting the DNC, no matter how many times you post that you’re not.

What do you expect from the Rudyites? "He's the only one who can win" is ALL THEY'VE GOT!

I think we should point out ANY of the top three republicans beat Hillary clinton. ANY. I am willing to lay odds the same is true for Fred Thompson. Which would be the top four candidates.

Guiliani can not lay any claim whatsoever to being “only one who can beat”

Hey Tommy Dale, Are you the same Tommy Dale that lives in Williamson Co, Texas?

The question is: would you vote for Rudy or the Republican Nominee for president in the General Election? Or would you make sure Hillary or Obama Osama wins?

The question is the General Election, not the primary.

Best Regards

In all fairness, Howlin is on the record as supporting Fred in the primaries. She's one of the good guys as far as I'm concerned. She just doesn't like the idea of people not supporting Rudy in the general if he God forbid wins the primary.
