The only way I would vote for Giuliani would be if Jesus Christ Himself personally appeared in front of me and told me to do so, and I can virtually guarantee THAT ain't gonna happen.

Wait a second, you just jumped down my throat for saying I'd go third-party if Rudy is nominated (post 111). I'm confused.

Ok, let's back up. In '92 and '96, the choices before the electorate were:

'92 - George H.W. Bush / Bill Clinton / Ross Perot

'96 - Bob Dole / Bill Clinton / Ross Perot

Now for all of their faults as RINOS, neither Bush Senior or Bob Dole were pro-abortion NARAL 'Champions of Choice' like Rudy Giuliani. Voters who chose the Texas madman Ross Perot DID in fact put Clinton in the White House not once, but twice by siphoning off enough votes to prevent a GOP victory. The issue was not abortion however.

Fast forward to the present day. We are now faced with the possibility of a GOP nominee who is no different on the issue of abortion than any potential 'Rat nominee.

If you were stating that Rudy is unacceptable to you as a presidential candidate, then we are in agreement. If the GOP nominates a pro-abortion, gun-grabbing adulterer as the standard bearer, then that will establish that the Party of Reagan has de-evolved into nothing more than 'Rat-Lite, and it will have done to conservatives what the Democrat Party did to Reagan, when he said "I didn't leave the Democratic Party, they left me".

A presidential ticket with Giuliani on it leaves conservatives no choice but to go third party because the net result of voting for Giuliani or the 'Rat nominee will be the same: continued leftist/liberal policies across the board.

Are you still confused? LOL
