Eventhough I will vote for any Republican nominee against Hillary, and I urge others to do so, it is true that when a moderate/Liberal Republican goes up against a moderate/liberal democrat, the moderate/liberal democrat always wins (e.g 1948, 1976,1992, and 1996).

Last month the Tories in Ontario got walloped after running a Liberal Lite campaign. John Tory, the leader lost his Don Valley West riding despite buttering up to the Gay Lobby.

Not to "get into it" with anybody....because I've been strongly criticized for this already. But I'll vote for my neighbor's dog before I vote for Rudy Guiliani. I won't vote for him (or any other RINO), but I won't vote for Hillary either. People such as myself will cause enough of an imbalance to toss the election her (Hillary's) way.

I've been warning people of this for months. But the prevailing attitude is that "anybody else" is better than Hillary, and that my attitude is everything from dangerous to seditious. We don't believe this though, even though we won't stoop to voting for Hillary.

A year is a fairly long time, and things can change though. We'll just have to see what pans out.

1968: Nixon v. Humphrey
1972: Nixon v. McGovern
1988: G. Bush (the elder) v. Dukakis

Nixon - who presided over the creation of the EPA and who instituted wage and price controls, could _hardly_ be called a conservative president. He _may_ have been conservative in his younger days, but by the time he reached the oval office, he was the epitome of a "moderate Republican".

And how "conservative" was "read my lips" George the 1st?

Your theory does not hold water.
