Right, and in the course of doing so, you completely ignored its context, which I clarified for you.
I don't hate Rudy. I just think he or McCain would be horrible choices for the GOP nominee
Fair enough. Don't vote for Giuliani then.
and would split the party.
I don't agree that he would "split the party" and again, you have no factual basis for this... prediction (or threat, or whatever it is).
If you are right that Giuliani's nomination would "split the party", then those people who would "split" upon Giuliani's nomination are idiots.
That's all I'm saying. You're either wrong, or if you're right, then a goodly fraction of (R)s are idiots. Take it for what it's worth but those are the two choices.
I guess you'd rather relive 1992 than avoid a repeat.
What happened in 1992? A lot of conservatives defected to Perot, is that what you're saying? What was the result of that? President Clinton for 8 years. What does this make those 1992 defectors?
That's right, say it with me: idiots.
That's all I'm saying.
Other than 1992, when Bush the Elder drifted left and it split the party. That history thingy ... yet again.
What happened in 1992? A lot of conservatives defected to Perot, is that what you're saying?
It's always the fault of the voters. Never the fault of the Rockefeller wing of the party who keeps trying to yank the steering wheel to the left, even though that manuever is shown to be bad for the party.
No. Those who would foist a Giuliani or other left-leaning candidate on the GOP are the idiots.
