I agree with you there Jim, but you have to admit there are different kinds of conservatives. Some focus on social issues, some financial, others constitutional like the 2nd Amend.
Personally, I never understood your jihad against Rudy. I know some like him (because they believe he can defeat the charging rhino thigh one) but he was never going to get the pub nomination. The only reason he polls high is because people don’t know enough about him and the campaign will eventually right that.
There are some things I admire about Rudy, like his effectiveness on crime, but there is no way he was going to get the nomination once the religous, 2nd amend and border control conservatives found out what he was about. The numbers just don’t add up.
That being said, if he did get the nomination he could probably win the general, but that’s a big if.
My advice, not that it was solicited, is you enforce the “no abuse” rule, try to separate the factions and ride it out. Once the election was over we’d all be one big happy family again.
Now you got a couple hundred people (maybe more) looking for a rope.
Well, this forum is for conservatives. We support conservative causes and conservative candidates. We don’t support liberals. We don’t support abortionists. We don’t support federally funded abortion. We don’t support NARAL or Planned Parenthood and we don’t go to bed with George Soros or any of his socialist organizations. We don’t praise Margaret Sanger. We don’t support the gay agenda. We don’t support gay marriage or gay unions. We don’t support hate crime or thought crime bills. We don’t support sanctuary cities or amnesty for illegal aliens. And we don’t support gun grabbers or constitution trampling authoritarians. Guess that pretty much rules out Rudy Giuliani for president.
“The only reason he polls high is because people don’t know enough about him and the campaign will eventually right that.”
He will probably fade, but the reason he is high in the polls is because Americans remember what he gave them in the hours and days after 9-11 . . . leadership.
Continue. I’m enjoying the debate
Sorry, bob, it won’t be you.
