No, it would be the Republican party itself that can take all the blame if Hitlery wins the White House. Why? Because the party and it's apologists would have insisted that the only way to beat a liberal would be to run a "liberal-lite". That ain't going to fly - either the Republicans fashion a conservative candidate or the won't win. Period!
I'm sick of all this "vote republican or you're with the enemy" camp. I don't do group-think, and I don't expect my fellow conservatives to do so either. I vote CONSERVATIVE, and that, especially of late, is not synonymous with Republican.
Why do some people have so much trouble understanding that simple truth? It's so obvious and yet they persist in these pipe dreams about electing Rudy. The delusion that Rudy can get elected has the potential of spelling the end of the GOP. Why can't they see that many, many people have chosen to vote Republican for a reason and that without that reason, the party will shrink?
