If Rudy is strong on economic freedoms, says he prefers a limited government, and says he prefers social issues to be legislated at the state levels, and many SoCons do not like him for these views, I want a realignment!

What about those who oppose Rudy because he's a gun-grabber, or because they would expect him to allow/encourage the most left-leaning states to enforce their will on the rest of the country?

Well, you fight like hell for your candidate in the primary. And, if a favored candidate isn’t there for the general election, you do one of two things: whine and leave the tent or suck it up and hold your friggen nose! Out of frustration of what I feel are narrow minded SoCons, I simply am entertaining the idea that maybe they should leave the tent so we can “get on with” the realignment. How does this sound?
