No need. But, maybe the can pick up a six-pack as long as they're out.
There is a nuance between "interfere" and "makes it difficult"?
"So, it was our Republican Party that gave me a political home. When I signed up for duty, I didn't have to check my principles at the door. And I soon found out that the desire for victory did not overcome our devotion to ideals".
--Ronald Reagan remarks at the Republican National Convention in New Orleans, August 15, 1988.
I submit that the Rudy-apologists who claim to be conservative will be checking their principles OUTSIDE the voting booth.
Liberals thrive on nuance.
That's an easy question and it deserves a quick answer.
Reagan assiduously courted conservatives; he made sure the entire conservative agenda was in the party platform---and actually advanced the conservative agenda as president.
Under Reagan (and Reagan conservatives), Repubs ascended to hold sway as a majority party and have had almost complete control of government for a generation.
===============================================
OTOH, Rooty and his handlers are waging a viscious campaign to dump conservatives off the Repub party flotilla. Their main focus is religious cleansing of the Repub Party.
The Rooty strategy is to split the party and decimate its conservative base.
====================================================
CONCLUSION: The difference is spectacularly simple:
Reagan liked conservatives, and welcomed them with open arms.
Rooty and his crew despise conservatives and do not want us or what we stand for in the Repub party.
Funny how one phrase or sentence can tell you all you need to know about a candidate
Clinton—”I didn’t inhale”
Bush “Compassionate Conservative”
Romney “ My sons show their patiotism by helping me get elected”
Guiliani “ I breathed the same air at ground zero as the fire fighters etc etc “
iatz
It seems wambat101 is reavaluating the nature of their association with FR.

His current stance is not to protect our border but to give an id card to those here. How the heck that is supposed to stop illegal immigration or make our borders safer is beyond me. Can you explain it to me?
OH and in regard to your comment about less crime, I assume you are not including his administration or those closest to him since many have been indicted on criminal charges.
And defied a Federal court order - was Rudi the mayor or emperor?
Rooty also tried to use 9/11 as an excuse to postpone the election and stay on as mayor. This is a classic tool of the left, use a crisis to halt election.
Oh, and Wombat won’t be responding to any of your posts.
the standard is ADULTERY not divorce.
rudy giuliani will not be able to beat hillary.
Wombat will be unable to post a rebuttal.
i just noticed! LOL!
Faced with the choice between an authoritarian socialist (Giuliani) and a Marxist socialist (Hillary), voters in blue states will simply choose the one (Hillary) who won't promote the police state. Both conservatives and libertarian voters will stay home or vote 3rd party.
Giuliani is Nelson Rockefeller on steroids.
I just hate it when that happens!
If I were you, I’d throw up my hands and just give up posting here.
No one could possibly blame you for just giving up and finding a venue more friendly to your views on the Catholic Church, 2nd amendment and the inadvisability of laws intended to govern moral behavior.
Oh, politicially-correct assumptions aside, a hypocrite isn’t one who doesn’t practice what he preaches. It’s one who doesn’t believe what he preaches. Ask most any classically-taught Scripture scholar.
See what I mean? Posting here is just pointless. Simply a waste.
