Um, you're missing the context of that conversation: "redgolum" was trying to make a point, by claiming that if Giuliani came out against WoT then people like me would either still support him (thus illustrating how ridiculous we are) or would not support him (thus forcing us to admit we are "single-issue voters").
I simply admitted to him that if Giuliani were somehow anti-war, I would indeed not support him; in other words, for him to be out-and-out "anti-war" would indeed be a deal-breaker for me. (And that there's nothing wrong with that.) In the course of this, I never claimed that I know Giuliani to be some kind of a huge foreign-policy expert.
In general, just so you know, I am not arguing that Giuliani is great, in this thread. Support whomever you want in the primary, for crying out loud - I don't really care. I am just pointing out that the hatred some seem to have for him is unwarranted, and the threats to defect/split the party if he's nominated, are stupid and self-defeating.
I was responding to your statement.

Rudy talking point #1 - call his opponents haters.
I don't hate Rudy. I just think he or McCain would be horrible choices for the GOP nominee and would split the party. I guess you'd rather relive 1992 than avoid a repeat. That history thingy.
