I’ll pray that the majority of our pro-life conservative leaders, senators, congressmen, governors, statesmen, commentators, grassroots groups, etc, vociferously condemn the culture of death abortionists, resign from the Republican party and form a new pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Liberty, pro-America conservative party and offer us a real choice between evil socialism and righteous freedom.
What do you think about the Constitution Party?

Vote for Life and be counted.
A noble but dangerous idea. Right now it looks like it will most likely be Hillary v. Giuliani in 2008 and, if so, the Conservative movement in the United States risks tearing itself apart.
We can be reasonably certain that Democrats will vote as a solid block. We can also be reasonably certain that a large percentage of independents and even ‘moderate’ republicans will vote against whoever the Repubs nominate, simply as a repudiation of the Bush administration. It’s looking more and more certain that whoever the Dems nominate will take the White House.
If we conservatives are going to hope to remain in a position where we will have any chance of stopping the liberal agenda, it’s going to require us to act as a group, not tear ourselves apart over our candidate.
I’m not saying that people should vote against their conscience, however, if the issue of abortion does cause the right-wing to split into two parties, one of them occupying the far-right and the other the center-right, the almost certain outcome is both parties being whoppingly defeated by the single left-of-center party.
If the schism were to get severe enough, the Democrats could be looking at a solid eight years of dominating both the executive and the legislative. Imagine how entrenched they could become in that time?
Don’t vote Giuliani if abortion is a make-or-break issue for you. But don’t fool yourself into thinking that making a moral stand on this issue will definitely result in positive change for the conservative movement.
Amen. We cannot beat the democrats by emulating them, and I hope we will not sell our principles (indeed our soul) for the hollow victory of putting a RINO in the white house. I will not.
If the choice is between Rudi an Hilary I will vote 3rd party or leave that part of the ballot blank. I will not vote for an abortionist under any circumstances. If the RINOs take over the Republican party, I will gladly support a prolife conservative alternative.
