---"What 3rd party candidate, Nader? He detracts from Hillary"---
I live in IL, and I am an active member of two grassroots Conservative organizations, one Pro-Family, one Pro-Gun.
There is already an active movement among many of us prepared to back a Third Party candidate if Rudy wins the nod. Names mentioned, some (but not all) of whom have already expressed interest: Alan Keyes, Gary Bauer, Bob Smith, Pat Buchanan,....just to name a few. It will be someone who essentially takes votes away from Rudy Giuliani EXCLUSIVELY.
This is why it's going to have to be someone else. Remember, without Pat Buchanan in 2000 - Bush wouldn't have even needed Florida.

Good luck reaching 0.5% in the general election with that pathetic crew.

Actually you won't be taking votes from Rudy Guiliani--you'll be giving them to Hillary.
Some people never learn.

Hey TitansAFC,
This is probably a pipe dream but I found a website with a small following. It was interesting to read some of the posts.

A late entering conservative might just be the ticket to success!
