Dr. Dobson and his associates should announce who they would support for President and why they support them. That would be more helpful than passively leaking that they cannot support a certain candidate without saying why.

I understand why core Conservatives reject Giuliani. It is hard to think of any issue which he shares with the party base (other than national security). The opposition of Dr. Dobson and his associates to the other candidates needs to be spelled out since the reasons are not as obvious.

Dr. Dobson and his associates should announce who they would support for President and why they support them.

On the contrary. People in the GOP should demand why their leadership is increasingly supporting socialist values and demand they restore Conservative values instead of blindly following them like lemmings to the sea.

They can’t do that and still maintain tax free, unlike their Dem counterparts.

Excuse me but their "why" was announced loud and clear, killing babies is something they will not stand for in a presidential candidate, so therefore they will not vote for a pro-abortion candidate, such as Rudy for example.

You make a very good point. I am not sure if that can be done because that may be in conflict with his tax-free status or something. I am not sure of his particular groups status so I am not sure, just a thought.

Perhaps the man of their choosing is not yet in the running. And when their choice is on the scene, the remainder of the Republican Party may turn around and ask, “Why did we not tap men like this before (?) — why did we waste our time, energies and emotions on the current field?”

I don’t know that that will happen, but it certainly could. And that answers to the statement in the article that the Democratic Party will not compromise their principles (if you can call them principles!), but have forced the Republican Party to compromise THEIR principles. The Republican Party is the one being drug under in the social and moral arena.

They can't box themselves in like that. Dobson is already throwing Thompson under the bus for not going to church enough. He may yet need to do the same to Hunter or Tancredo because they like dancing or something.

[LS]

Exactly. He has already “dissed” Fred Thompson, too.

How much more obvious can you get at why he cannot/will not support Rudi? He specifically stated he could not and would not vote for Rudi because of his stand on core issues, particularly abortion.

Duh, Rudy's pro-abortion stance is why.
