Rudy is not the choice of Conservatives; he is the choice of many conservative Republicans. Big difference.
Conservatives who cross the line to vote R are in fact the true RINOs - 'Republicans in Name Only'.
Conservatives who stick to their principles don't have much hope within the Republican party. It is a center-right (slightly) coalition that supports a wide-range of government programs that violate basic Constitutional tenents.
JR is right to push FR to the right; it's called product differentiation. That being said, I think Republicans should be allowed to continue to post here in the off-chance that Conservatives might help push the partly slightly rightward.
