What is this BS about 100%? Rooty Toots isn’t even 1% conservative.
“...Rooty Toots isnt even 1% conservative.”
Rudy is 100% liberal, only worse.
Rudy will not represent conservatives on even half the issues they care about. I visit his website, http://www.joinrudy2008.com/ , and I don’t see any evidence that he’s even running as a Republican. In fact, he would have run as a Democrat if he could, and says so himself:

Worried, about a GOP candidate defecting to a third party and messing up the general election? A Democrat just defected to your party and is messing up your PRIMARY election! Furthermore, Rudy would make voting GOP mostly irrelevant in the general election, and possibly multiple elections thereafter.
Why is he worse?
What happens at just about every midterm election?
“Simply put, the party controlling the White House nearly always loses House seats in midterm elections” http://anncoulter.com/cgi-local/article.cgi?article=156
“Republicans have always done best in House elections when an unpopular
Democrat sits in the White House.” http://www.jstor.org/view/00323195/di980453/98p0914k/9
If Hillary the Democrat slips into office because some of us voted third-party, we can predict what’s going to happen: The perennially displeased public will look at the party controlling the presidency and vote the other way, and the democrats will begin to lose congress. But what’s going to happen if we all toe the line just to make sure Rudy the RINO gets into office, and then people vote the other way on his midterm election? That’s right, you’ll get to watch all the worst liberal agenda pass for six and a half more years. And guess which party will pick up the blame for the results of all that?
Rudy would be a Republican disaster, and every time conservative pundits pipe up and say “I will vote for former Mayor Rudy Giuliani over Hillary Clinton!” they only increase confidence in Rudy, promote his campaign, and assure the disaster.
Want to keep talking about minimal-loss strategy? How about this?:
If I were a progressive pro-abortion, pro-gay-marriage, gun-control democrat watching Rudy in the lead and listening to conservative pundits advising their audience to support the GOP no matter what happens, I’d drop everything I was doing and register myself, my family, and all my friends Republican. This would be my big chance to turn this country all the way around. The Democrat party is already in the bag. Should it really matter to me so much to me whether Clinton or Obama wins the primary? On the other hand, if I could help change the course of the GOP, possibly forever
Wow! Both major parties and all three branches of government working in harmony to advance all my favorite progressive pro-abortion, pro-gay-marriage, gun-control agendas!
If Christian conservatives are taking a stand and declaring absolutely no confidence in Rudy, then they are the ones who are doing the right thing, both on values and on strategy.
I am pretty sure 100% of liberals would disagree with you. He drove them nuts throughout his term in NYC.
