If you think Fred Thompson would serve with someone with opposite positions on most issues, you are dreaming. I'm certain the Rudyphiles would love to see it, because it would be a strong ticket. However, you cannot count on all the conservatives falling into place, because they wouldn't vote for Rudy under ANY circumstances. He has shot himself in both feet now. He has no moral convictions, no understanding of the Constitution, and no loyal following among the right.
When you awake the day after the election in November, 2008, I'm sure you will want to blame the Religious Right for your overwhelming defeat. Blame yourself, because you were forewarned that Rudy is not a conservative, and he does not deserve our votes.
