You've so warped yourself that you believe the Giuliani is a "moderate" right of center candidate. He is a LIBERAL. Nearly everything about him screams LIBERAL. You want "moderate" right of center, that would be someone like Fred Thompson. Being pro-abortion, pro-radical gay agenda, pro-gun confiscation, etc. are extreme positions and are LIBERAL positions. I'm not going to let you or anyone else get away with defining conservativism down to meaninglessness by associating it with some of the most liberal positions possible. The cliff that you and everyone like you are trying to drive us off of would drop our party and our free country to their deaths in a pit of liberalism.
Thompson, the new great Conservative hope. Deus ex machina. Out of thin air.
I’ve been on FR a long time. Funny I don’t remember all the postings about Thompson’s great, unique and laudatory successes while he was in office.
You like Thompson? Great. You think he can be elected? Great again. If he is elected, super great.
But I’m not so sure how much you like Thompson. Because if you really liked him you would post article after article to boost his chances. And you would do it in forums where selling him might help, not in the deluded bubble that is FreeRepublic. And you would have your work cut out for you.
But that’s not what you do, is it? Your continuous defamation of Giuliani doesn’t boost Thompson. Not one bit. Its only achievement, if any, will be to damage the one Republican candidate who could win in 2008.
I have a sneaking suspicion that you would be glad to see any Democrat sworn in Jan 2009 rather then see Giuliani of whom George Will was right when he said, “His eight years as mayor of New York were the most successful episode of conservative governance in this country in the last 50 years.”
Which makes you and the other zealots, enemies to Republicans and Conservatives and those who care about America.
