[WalterSkinner]

With the bare fact being that no Republican in recent memory has been able to win a major contest without at least the tacit backing of the religious right, Rudy Guliani might be trying to buck that trend.

[Corin Stormhands]

It would be a sin for any Christian to vote for Giullani.

THIS Evangelical Christian is supporting Giuliani.

I take great comfort in the fact that God, not you, gets to decide what is and isn't sin.

[jla]

Rudy is splitting the far left too so youll have plenty of company in the booth for Rudy to save you from the beast.

He is doing no such thing. The Left, far or otherwise, despise him.
The Rudyophiles deny reality if they believe he'll pull votes substantially from the Democrats.

[Mrs. Don-o]

"I'm not an Evangelical, but if I was I might be looking for at least a peck considering your boy was more than happy to kiss the asses of every radical pro-abortion and homosexuals rights group he could stick his lips on."

Tell it, garv, tell it!

Let's see: how much of that can I fit into a tagline?

[Mrs. Don-o]

"Kinda funny but a lot of us "anti Rudy" people actually find him quite likeable. We just don't want to find him in the oval office." True.. See tagline..

[OMalley]

This is so much projection (that conservatives are the one issue voters)

Look at the rudybot posts, its ONE issue, the WOT. They are the one issue voters.

Personally, I think many hide behind that when infact the truth is they prefer the socially liberal views as well.

Its the only thing that makes sense since it is possible to have a candidate that is both strong on the WOT and social conservative values.

I can name atleast 5 or more issues that disqualify Rudy and only one that qualifys him (and im not even completly convinced of that).

[CyberAnt]

We've already sacrificed 3,000 of our children to the WOT.

And .. no .. I don't agree with your premise.

How many partial birth abortions are there versus 10 million people dead from a dirty bomb .. and millions more left unable to conceive because of radiation ..?? .. all in the name of electing Hellery and her minions .. because people were so offended by somebody who didn't support getting rid of partial birth abortion that they stayed home and didn't vote. Get real!!

Why not start the ball rolling in YOUR STATE - instead of expecting the Federal Govt to do everything!!

[Luke21]

Makes sense to me. He isn't one of them. He's being honest. I applaud the move. I want to see him spit in the right's face every chance he gets now, rather than be like Bush and do it after he's elected.

Good job Rudy.

[OMalley]

well tell that to my sister. Im not saying its gospel, but it is happening to some.

and for your info i do NOT support Rudy.

But read thier comments (pro rudy) they will tell you they will pick up enough votes to do it without the social conservatives from the moderates, dems etc.

[Blackirish]

You can prop your little leftist candidate up all you want, but he will not fly, not now, not ever

---

He's flying pretty high in the polls. Even in the south.
I keep hearing about this so-called split. Besides some hissy fitters on FR could someone provide some links or data to support this?

[JCEccles]

I'm not an Evangelical, but if I was I might be looking for at least a peck considering your boy was more than happy to kiss the asses of every radical pro-abortion and homosexuals rights group he could stick his lips on.

I've seen this truism expressed in more genteel ways, but they didn't have the same punch.

[CyberAnt]

Sorry .. I'm not a "you Rudy people".

I'm not supporting anybody yet. I'm for discussing ideas and how they can solve problems.

But .. we must wake up to the realities of where we are NOW and not WHERE WE WISH WE WERE!!

There is NO REAGAN STANDING IN THE WINGS - and YOU PEOPLE are the same ones who sat on your blessed assurance on election day and allowed the STINKING DEMOCRATS to take over and LOOK AT THE MESS YOU HAVE US IN NOW - SO MUCH FOR YOUR LOUSY PRINCIPLES .. WHERE DID THEY GET YOU .. DEFEAT IN IRAQ - HOW CLEVER OF YOU.

[OMalley]

When did FR EVER care about polls?

After all these years ive been lurking and reading and now all of a sudden the msm is right on and the polls are accurate.

Lets talk in about 6 months:-)

[JCEccles]

He's flying high in your fevered big-city delusional cloud.

[skr]

You see, I will ultimately have to answer for my vote to God, and that trumps any other considerations. Precisely.

[Luke21]

"If the best the GOP can muster is McCain, Romney, or Rudy, then it is already dead. A corpse can't commit suicide."

Best line of the day.

[Old_Mil]

The thing is, it's comments like that which reveal the true motive behind the Giuliani candidacy. There's a small but vocal coaliation of people who are greedy, want low taxes,and don't want to be shot by terrorists.

At the same time, they don't want to live their lives by any traditional sense of morality and either embrace (or don't care about) homosexuality, abortion, and all the other ills that plague our society. As a result, Christians and Chrisitan morality annoy them. It is this sort of a voter that speaks on behalf of the crossdressing mayor the loudest.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

When did FR EVER care about polls?

When they support your delusions, er, conclusions!

After all these years ive been lurking and reading and now all of a sudden the msm is right on and the polls are accurate.

/waves hand ... These are not the droids you are looking for.

Lets talk in about 6 months:-)

You are certainly a glutton for punishment.

[Luke21]

"The Religious Right had better get right..and sit in the back seat and STFU!"

Keep doing public relations for the Rino wing. Be as big a jerk as you can. Go for it. At least you are being honest. You at least show the party's real attitude, fangs and all.

[muleskinner]

Uh, he can attend the one next year - before the election.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

The Religious Right had better get right..and sit in the back seat and STFU!

So, you think it's time for the negros to move to the back of the bus eh?

Seems we've heard that song and dance before, it didn't end well for the bigots as I recall.
