There are plans with in plans.

This leader didn't want to be identified because now is not the time to go public

He also told me that Thompson is "better than expected" and Evangelical leaders are looking for an alternative because Romney, Giuliani and McCain simply don't cut it. As a matter of fact, he told me point blank, "Rudy must be stopped" and there is a conversation underway on how to do that.

He's right, whoever he is!

Evangelicals would at best put a clothespin on their nose and vote for Rudy, i think they would be enthusiastic about supporting Fred.

[Jeri Thompson] could very well champion issues that are important to social conservatives like sex trafficking and cracking down on pornography.

By sex trafficking, are they talking about prostitution, or about human trafficking for sex purposes?

One is an issue the federal government should be involved in, and one isn't. Of course, if the First Lady wants to lead a cultural campaign against prostitution and pornography, then that's fine by me.

I'm always wary of giving too much credibility to anonymous quotes. If this is accurate, though, and the source really is a prominent evangelical, then this is bad news for Rudy.

And the best part about anonymous quotes is that no one can be held accountable for saying something, and you can change your mind with being referred to as a flip flopper.

I think Land will come out for Fred as soon as he declares.

This Evangelical wouldn’t vote for Rudy, period.

That comment says it all. I agree.

Encouraging, but all the same, I’d apply the 48 hour rule to this.
