Guiliani isn’t the best nom for our party but he’s better than any dem running and we have to acknowledge that.

Voting for a socialist to prevent a socialist from taking the White House is a zero sum gain at best. It only begets more socialism. It is that type of compromising thinking that has put the GOP in its current dilemma.

I understand the concept. I know History (and not the socialist/liberal history being shoved down students throats today).

And I disagree. I don’t think the problem with the GOP is based in socialism or even in the splitting of the party because of whiners who won’t support any candidate if that candidate doesn’t support their *issue* totally. Even though some do vote on one issue. Most voters today don’t know a darn thing about history: world history, US history, US Constitution, politics, government, etc. We don’t educate our kids, the next generation or generations, all they’re learning now is pop history, propaganda, media history which has no basis is facts. Take a look at the public (and that means ALL) school curriculum and it’s way different than what we were taught - most of these kids who support the Right to Choose have no idea about that SC case or about the people involved. Or how the woman recanted. Most of these kids are being educated, by our tax dollars, to lean toward a certain political agenda and there’s very little anyone can do about it. Sure we fight it but then we get sued, our twp/sch dis gets sued which costs us more money. We’re in this situation now with Garden State Equality suing our sch dis because we fought the That’s A FAmily video - a pro homo vid being taught to 8 yr olds/3rd graders. Cos homosexuality and transgenderism is normal and anyone who doesn’t believe that is odd. RME.

The GOP is this in current dilemna, imo, because it doesn’t fight back. It’s afraid. Maybe it’s part of the culture or fad today that if a lone nut case or two lone nut cases start shooting at you or your classmates, well then duck or hide rather than fighting back - because law abiding citizens can’t carry guns and all that. And honor means nothing and it’s ok to hide or run to save ourselves even when the chances point in the favor to the nut case and maybe storming him could save a few lives. But, we’re now taught to hide or don’t do anything to set a nut case off when they’re already set off. ??? Remember how scared certain senators became when we fought back about the Amnesty bill for illegals? We won that round. We wouldn’t have a fighting chance if those senators were dems.

The GOP is in this dilemna because we allowed this to happen and we can change it. There won’t be a change, drastic change, before 2008 election so I’m notwilling to throw away my vote. The change is happening now from what I’ve seen on this conservative board.

So if the election comes down to a repub nom who values our military and understands this war on terror and Islam to another who hates America, hates our military and doesn’t understand the War we’re fighting then yeah, I’ll vote for the former in a hearbeat. We won’t have any social issues to fight for or any freedoms if we lose this War.
