Social conservatives bite bullet, back Rudy (glue-sniffing article)

Rudy Giuliani, whose positions on abortion and homosexuality mark him as the most socially liberal Republican presidential candidate in more than a generation, is so far winning the contest for the support of social conservatives, according to a new analysis of recent polls.

Social liberalism implies an exploding budget so, Socially liberal, fiscally conservative is oxymoronic.

Bizarre article...really strange..there might have been some elements of accuracy in the premise of the article, but that was several weeks ago, BEFORE Rudy stepped in it in the two debates...BTW..notice that they weren’t mentioned at all

[RKV]

Wishful thinking.

[Reaganesque]

Hmmm, I didn’t get that memo, did you?

[Hydroshock]

They may, I won’t. What you do today you have to sleep with tonight.

[freespirited]

It’s an analysis of polls.

And I am sure you will sleep much better with a democrat, probably Mrs. Clinton, in the White House.

[JustaDumbBlonde]

How many, and which, of your conservative values do you feel that you’ve had to compromise in order to support Rudy?

[bmwcyle]

Now nore than ever, NO RUDY!

[apocalypto]

I doubt social or unsocial conservatives back Rudolph Giuliani when there are others who are more likely to win against Hillary.

Rudolph Giuliani did not do well in the debates and looked as if he was not in the best of health. If faced with Hillary, he might once again decide at the last minute that he health would not permit facing that woman.

'nuff said.

[Hydroshock]

I do not see any real difference between the two.

All us social conservatives are backing roooooooody./sarc
Dear RNC: Nominate roooty and pass the shamnesty bill and see whats left of the ‘pub party after that. You are hanging by a thread right now. You have about 6 months or you will go the way of the Whig party.

A quick Google check of David Paul Kuhn shows that he's a veteran of SeeBS News, and Salon. As Marc Cooper said about him back in June, 2005: "Kuhn proves the theorem that just because you have three names, you’re not necessarily that smart."

Not this social conservative.

By the way, if this comment were true, why would Rudy's numbers be dropping?

When the so-called "republican" has all of the same positions as the Democrat, what difference does it make? A left wing big government liberal is a left wing big government liberal regardless of party affiliation.

Honey, the primary isn't over yet. Why not support a real conservative instead of Rudy?

[dynachrome]

Rooody. The "GAG" candidate.
Guns - wrong on the 2nd amendment
Abortion - would finance his daughters abortion if needed.
Gays - pro homo agenda.
