Why would conservatives support Rudy?
Simple. Sometimes it makes sense to vote for a liberal like JFK or Truman to keep a McGovern, a Kerry, or a Dean out of power. When you’re being threatened by madmen who want to suicide themselves with nuclear bombs for religious reasons, it makes absolute sense.
If the Rudy-bashers had a more conservative candidate they supported that could defeat Hillary, then sign me up.
Duncan Hunter is liberal on economics, and generally is an unpleasant person. Fred Thompson doesn’t seem that serious about the entire campaigning business. McCain, well, is McCain, and Romney flipflops and panders.
If I had to switch support from Giuliani at this point, I’d pick Romney. I’m not totally convinced Romney can win. However, he can raise the money, has a large fortune of his own, which may help him overcome his deficits in the polls to the Dems. It is still risky — the polls show Obama and Clinton defeating Romney easily.
As a result, given the lack of serious argument above, I’m tentatively staying with Giuliani. If something develops— if Thompson jumps in and shows appeal with independents, or if Romney can persuade people to join his side—then maybe I’ll consider switching.
Spam away with the dorky images all you want. Let me know when you guys have a rational argument.
I agree with you.
Cept I don’t thik it will be Hillary. It’s gonna be Gore.
Hillary and Obama are unelectable. She is too unlikable and he has no experience.
Gore will step in and be formidable he would bridge the moonbat and rank and file dims. I just heard on talk radio he’s favored in Vegas....I have no links to verify. I’m not sure Gulliani or Thompson can beat Gore.
Romney could match up well against him.
Rudy’s position on the 2nd Amendment is anathema to Conservatism, the US Constitution, and individual liberty.
That rational enough for you or are you just going to dismiss the Constitution as a “social issue”?
