The ONLY single issue voters in this election are the ones who believe that a liberal who is responsible for making the worst terrorist attack in American history more difficult than it should have been is somehow qualified to lead the war on terror.
Can you clarify what your reply?
“Among self-described evangelical voters, just 17 percent supported abortion.
Sounds like some seriously conflicted people”
...or they just don’t really know the definition of “Evangelical Christian”. Lots of those around.
BTTT
Yes, but what percentage of those who oppose abortion are single issue voter?
****************************************
I am far fron a “single issue” voter but it is a deal killer for me.. I will never vote for anyone that doesn’t see the value of life, like many others here I think that if Rudy is the nominee it is better for the Reps to lose the white house than to destroy the party by throwing away our principles.
The boldfaced passages of your post suggests you are at least a de facto single issue voter. If a single issue is a deal killer, how can you claim that you are far from a single issue voter? Perhaps, your nuances escape me.
Rudy’s desire to send jack booted thugs in black into my house in search of firearms at 4 a.m. makes him a non-starter also... no nuances here to escape you ... I was merely sticking to the issue under discussion,, I didn’t want to go down the “lets all bash Rudy” path but since we’re going that way I’ll tell you I judge more by ACTIONS not words and Rudy’s actions are indistinguishable from Ms. Clinton or Kennedy ,, he has no clue as to the meaning of the constitution or (probably more accurately as he is a New Yawker who knows better than us rubes in flyover country) simply doesn’t care ... he wants the US to be formed in his Stalinist image.
But did you not initially write that abortion was a deal killer, i.e. no mention of gun control?
I was merely sticking to the issue under discussion, it is not the ONLY deal killer. Rudy is not damaged REPUBLICAN goods , he is perfectly fine Democrat/Socialist goods in the wrong wrapper.
