Sheesh, if you believe any of that crap you’re not being honest. Get over it. He’s a blooming liberal. There’s no way you can defend his liberalness. It’s indefensible.

Jim, it's primary season. Support the person you believe most closely aligns with your values. Do so with vigor. Do so with passion.

I'm not hugely pro Rudy. I can accept him, but I'm not head over heals thrilled by him. I haven't gotten behind a candidate I'm in love with at this time. Thompson looks interesting, but's he's not officially running and his background is now only being pealed back for further examination.

I have no problem with revealing the underbelly of the candidates. As long as it's done constructively, not destructively.

But at some time there will be a standard bearer that probably neither you nor I will be thrilled with. I doubt there will be a viable third party candidate. Perot will probably be the last one for generations, and he blew it when he went off the reservation.

You've been behind President Bush through much of this administration. Yet, while he has given us two justices that appear to be pro life, both during confirmation they pretty much indicated they believed and supported stare decisis. But my guess is they are very pro life and could be a deciding factor on abortion. We don't know for sure.

But you hear very little from President Bush on the leadership of changing the hearts and souls or men and women in this country away from that culture. Maybe one of the strongest keys in changing how we view this procedure and yet we hear little from the bully pulpit. Yet you stand behind him. Is he going to allow his version of judicial fiat make that ruling?

I'm not saying Rudy or McCain or some of the others are the best man for the job. I think any would be better than Clinton or Obama or whoever the dems put up. We may only have the choice between Rudy or Clinton or McCain and Obama. Let's see how this plays out. But in the mean time, some good spirited and informed debate is good for this forum, good for the party and good for the conservative movement.
