Almost every Republican in the race right now would fight the WoT with every bit as much conviction as Giuliani.

And I will vote for them. I will even vote for your candidate, if he wins, despite his dubious record on fiscal issues and free trade.

There's at least a handful of Republican candidates right now who will do BOTH.

Unfortunately, they would not make strong general election candidates. Rudy will. He will destroy Hillary. You should realize that strong convictions on the WOT are of little use if the candidate does not get elected.

Giuliani's atrocious views must be exposed to the Republicans who are unaware of them so that they may make an educated choice in the primary election.

Don't worry, they will. But I don't know whether true conservatives will care. And I'm confident that the GOP will choose a decent candidate, like Rudy, Romney or Sanford.

I've been hearing that lie in similar form since 1960. Nothing quite like an unsupported assertion that flies in the face of historic experience:

Eisenhower (RINO) killed a Republican majority in Congress and was followed by Kennedy.
Nixon/Ford (RINOs both) never gained a majority and were followed by Carter!
Bush I, upon taking over from a wildly popular Reagan, killed that opportunity and left us a government with both Congress and the Presidency under Slave Party control.
Bush II inherited a Republican Congressional majority, pissed it away by (among other things) alienating his base (get the pun?), barely beat two Democrat losers he should have buried, and left no successor candidate. What a guy!

The ONLY Republican President since Coolidge who was followed by yet another Republican Republican was (conservative) Ronald Reagan. In both elections he won by a substantial majority.
