Pardon any spelling errors, no working checker on my puter.

Nice work. People who think abortion doesn't matter should tell that to the people being torn apart every day. Cowardice isn't a conservative value.

[OMalley]

Awesome. you hit the nail on the head:)

Saturday is funday!

Vote for whomever you damn well please...but don't you DARE come back on FreeRepublic in 2009 bemoaning the state of the Country.

Let me ask you what precisely you are doing to forward your choice for Presidential nominee? Hmm...

When the 2008 election happen, you know damn well you will push the lever for the guy with the R next to his name because the person with the D is 1000 times more dangerous. So if you think you can get the person you want nominated, GO AHEAD...get off the computer and start doing something. Ranting on FreeRepublic ain't gonna get it done, Buddy,

[EternalVigilance]

Nice rant. One I agree with in every respect.

[Plains Drifter]

Well said.

[BMIC]

Even those who are being touted as alternatives to the RINOs McCain, Giuliani, and Romney are saying NOTHING about the life and family issues that Social Conservatives like yours truly care most about. We're starting to feel like we've been marginalized. Doesn't make you want to go to the trouble to go out and vote. It sure does seem that the GOP is turning a deaf ear to Social Conservatives...

[MichiganConservative]

You forgot to mention the fear-mongering about him being "electable" and "the only to who can defeat Hillary". He sure has proven his ability to beat Hillary, hasn't he?

It may just be he is "electable". It doesn't matter to me. I'm pretty sure that regardless of who becomes the next president this country will continue it's downward spiral. It's only going to get worse.

[Enosh]

Only 5 minutes and 33 seconds before the first bot snipe.

Well done!

[PatrickF4]

If that's the way the party goes, then "don't you know you that can count me out"... I'm not voting for Rudy, not in the primary, not in the general, not ever.

[SeenTheLights Mom]

"Voting is always a choice between the "lesser of two" evils,"

It is.

[EternalVigilance]

Vote for whomever you damn well please...

Gee. I'm sure the target of your bile will thank you for your kind permission. /s

but don't you DARE come back on FreeRepublic in 2009 bemoaning the state of the Country.

If the state of the country is bad, it won't be the fault of those who tried with all their might to prevent such bad outcomes. It will be the fault of those who empowered those who actively work to prevent the restoration and preservation of our free republic, like you.

[EternalVigilance]

He sure has proven his ability to beat Hillary, hasn't he?

Right. That's why he was afraid to run against her for the Senate.

Good job. There is much more than just a single issue. But hey they don't need us so I am not sweating it until the time comes to pull the lever. In the meantime I will push for Hunter.

[Plains Drifter]

I found his article very informative and this is the information I come to Free Republic for, not to have rude people like you berate people who write thoughtful articles and I might add you seem to berate people because they disagree with you. This is a free country and thank God there are only a few people as rude as you are here in Free Republic or this site wouldn't be the success that it is. By the way, like most conservatives I'll never vote for Guiliani.

[PatrickF4]

Perhaps being a social conservative was always a losing proposition... if we take a look back at the world, post world war II to the present, social conservatives have not had it very good. We only thrive in an atmosphere of consensus; otherwise, we are just trying to stop the social decline caused by our decaying values. It is, however, always worth the fight. And, even marginalized, we obviously have some power when the Rudophilic apologists plead with us to accept this for the good of the party. I think I have to, like the commercial says, "answer to a Higher Authority" than the NR or some Wall Street suits.

When the 2008 election happen, you know damn well you will push the lever for the guy with the R next to his name because the person with the D is 1000 times more dangerous.

That really makes Rudy look good. Nevermind his record just vote R. Now be a good sheeple and run along.

[lilylangtree]

Salute! The silent majority is finally being heard. Never mind the pro-Rudy, pro-John, pro-Milt groups that we hold our noses and vote for the lesser of two evils just to win. Winning without belief and principles is not a win. That's the RAT way of thinking We want a candidate that (1) we can trust, (2) reflect our principles and beliefs, (3) and make a country strong and economically prosperous.

Great post. Rudy Giuliani as standard bearer signals the end of the Republican party as a vehicle for the conservative movement. If it happens, and I will do my best to see that it doesn't, it will hurt the conservative movement, but destroy the GOP.
