The question who is the true Republican candidate for 2008?
Obama would be a match for Rudy McRomney.
I think that Rudy and Mitt are too liberal, but the republican nominee would beat Obama. Here are some of Obama's 2005 ratings from some famous interest groups: NARAL, 100%; NAACP, 100%; NEA, 100%; NOW, 100%; Americans for Democratic Action, 100%; AFL-CIO, 92%; U.S. Chamber of Commerce, 39%; American Conservative Union, 8%; and Gun Owners of America, 0%. His liberal votes would help him win many primaries, but he's too liberal for the majority of American voters.
