No doubt the liberals would help finance your efforts just to siphon more votes away from electable Republicans.

“The group told media they had not yet identified a candidate “
They must be blind.
They should “identify” Duncan Hunter!!!!!!!!!!!
What good would a third party run do for anyone?
Since when have political parties been bonded with steel liquid nail anyway ? They bond for a short period of time to beat down an issue or to slap an opponet . That’s it .
How can a mortal be with God and be in politics without selling his soul and his ass ?
Fools, they need to get off their backsides, and promote another candidate to take Rudy out in the primarys. If they feel like they’ve been sold out by the Republican Party, they need to get off their backsides, get involved, and straighten the party out.
How about Pat Robertson? Hes a whacko but he’s on the good side as far as abortion goes. Its all about principle...
Oh great! Just what we need - a party split.
Remember what the last split got us ..?? 8 YEARS OF BUBBA!!
Do we have to repeat such a stupid act ..??
Do we really want another 8 YEARS OF BUBBA ..??
Give me a break!
I think it is a mistake to think that social conservatives will all do the same thing or that there is some monolithic leader that speaks for all of us. There are:
1) some who have become discouraged by 12 years of GOP cowardice on social conservative issues when they’ve had the chance to govern. They may sit ‘08 out if there’s no candidate to their liking.
2) some who are satisfied with what Republicans have done as “the best they could get” and will support their nominee without reservation.
3) some who are mad and want a party more responsive to their wishes. Those would be the ones most likely to bolt to a third party.
If a pro-abortion, pro-homosexual candidate like Giuliani is the nominee, I think you’ll see some fall into all three camps. The question is how many will go to each. I honestly think that’s why Giuliani cannot win the nomination because too many Republicans will see what a liability he will be to a large segment of the the base who will either stay home or vote third-party.
There is a third party called the Constitution Party already in place for those ready to bolt. The social conservative wing need not invent a third party because one already exists.
I’m pretty sure I can hold my nose and support Romney or Thompson though I have misgivings about each. I’m sure I would never support McCain (not for social issues but his general treachery). Giuliani will probably put me in the unsupportable column the more he fleshes out his social agenda but I’m not ready to say yet that I’d never support him. Those who believe conservatives staying home/voting third party is an empty threat should think again. Many will stay but many will bolt - too many for the GOP to win the general election.
There will be a 1 point margin of error.
How about we nominate Ross Perot? It worked so well the first time we should try it again.
If Mr. Giuliani is the presidential nominee of the Republican Party, I’ll vote third party.
The only difference between a Rudy administration and a Hillary is the speed which we disintegrate as a free nation.
why didn’t the headline just read, if they elect Guiliani.
Guiliani is the ONLY pro-abortion candidate in the line up.
ALL the other candidates have taken pro-life positions.
If this is their ONLY issue then they should be EXPLICIT so the remaining two can fight it out on the conservative issues.
