Multiple reasons.
1. People aren’t informed of candidate’s positions.
2. People want to be behind a winner.
3. People believe the WOT is the #1 overriding issue.
4. People want to be part of the ‘pop culture’ type candidate.
5. People believe that Rudy will govern as a conservative.

From real conservatives I talk to who are behind Rudy, #2 & #3 are the main reasons.

We shouldn’t be so quick to assume everyone knows Rudy’s positions and past because of what people say here.. informed conservative voters, of whom look at the whole package versus one issue are probably less than 10% of the Right’s voting block..

I believe McCain hasd been the front runner, based mostly on the large veteren population.
