Rudy is part of the conservative movement? Since when? Do you even know what the conservative movement stands for? Do you have any idea whatsoever how much damage Rudy is doing to the conservative movement?

You and people like you are just plain ignorant.

Buh bye.

The 'Rudy' problem is a very big one. The history of conservative politics in Canada is a good example of just how big it can get. Canada used to have three major parties - the Liberals (socialists), the PCs (once-upon-a-time conservatives) and the NDP (moonbats). The dilemma for the Canadian conservative voter was that the ideologies of any PC candidate was exactly the same as that of any Liberal one, barring minor details. The PC party was a party of Rudies. Voting on a party basis was completely useless - the conservative voter had to examine individual candidates irrespective of party allegiance, to see if any semblance of conservative representation was possible. Eventually, the PC party totally self-destructed, which was a good thing, because who needs two liberal parties anyway? And if American conservatives don't expel their Rudies, the same fate awaits the Republican party.
