“Whoever is disgruntled enough by the eventual GOP nominee to vote third party in a swing state should do so knowing they are casting a vote for Hillary. And if they are ok with that, then I suppose we will all suffer the consequences.”
My refusing to vote for Guilianni is not a vote for Hillary or anyone else. That accusation is getting real tiring. How many different ways do we have to say it, that nominating Rudy would be a guaranteed loss in 08. He is just not acceptable a man to vote for no matter who he is running against. I refuse to even entertain the thought of him gaining the nomination. Find someone else.
Given his poll numbers at this time, you might want to "entertain" it.
I'm not arguing pro-Rudy. But if he wins the nomination you have to look carefully at the VERY REAL threat of "President Hillary." I've said it before & I'll say it again. I'd vote for a trained chimpanzee to keep Hillary out of the White House.
In the general election, it would be. You can spin it or justify it in your head any which way you want, but its the truth.
If the three candidates on the ballot are Rudy Giuliani, Hillary Clinton, and Constitution Party guy who cries because he can't get into the debates, and you vote for anyone besides the GOP nominee you are giving implicit support to Hillary and possibly allowing a third Clinton presidency without 50% of the vote.
Seeing as your profile says you are from North Dakota you can do whatever you want to make a statement, as I have no doubt the GOP nominee will carry the state, but someone who shares your views in states like FL, OH, PA et al could be disastrous to our nation's future.
