Yes, it's his site, his rules, and he manages it; however, once this site is turned into a one candidate promoting site, with all other views bannedUnless, of course, the candidate in question is YOUR candidate, and then you're fine with that.

Best chuckles of the day so far:
"Rudy is a flaming liberal."
"Rudy is a left wing liberal."
Giuliani is conservative on several issues, moderate on several issues, and liberal on a few. I'll happily support him and I believe he'll win. I don't agree with him on every issue and I don't have to defend all his positions. I support him because he has the best combination of "right positions" and "electability" of any candidate so far. ("So far," being the operative phrase.)

Apparently, skins are running thin in the anti-Rudy camp! Let me just say that campaigning for Rudy, or any other GOP candidate, *is* welcomed here by a vast contingent of Freepers.

The "grits" thing: that was a great reply. We can make a similar argument to those saying that Catholics either won't or shouldn't vote for Rudy--how many thousands of New York City Catholics turned out for Rudy? They didn't sit on their hands on election day, and neither will Catholics in general.

I was not going to vote for him until 2 days ago when Rush played about 6 Hillary sound bites and the MSM followed up with another several sound/video bites of Hillary. That was all it took for me to realize I can't not vote against Hillary.

Thanks for that breath of fresh air. Imagine people waiting for the perfect candidate while the terrorists never stop plotting against us.
It's about leadership and understanding the global issues facing the civilized world. I believe Rudy gets it!

That was all it took for me to realize I can't not vote against Hillary. I sympathize with what you're saying. And if it were him versus Hitlery in the General election, there's no way I would vote for Hitlery either.
All well and good.
But the GOP does not have a nominee yet. Why not support a truly conservative candidate? At least until the GOP nominates somebody...
My thought on the matter is we should support the candidate we'd WANT at this juncture and then make a decision on who we're stuck with once the nomination process is done.

I wasn't saying that I would support Rudy over a conservative just because Rudy can win. I was just being a bit pessimistic and assuming that Rudy would win. I've been thinking that if he did I'd vote 3rd party. Hearing a couple of minutes of Hillary showed me that I won't be able to do that to make a point.
I prefer Newt and I loathe Romney. I have a real problem with Mormons.

You anti-Rudy folks should consider the next 8 years of the Clinton Presidency...and grow up.

"You anti-Rudy folks should consider the next 8 years of the Clinton Presidency...and grow up."
We have considered the next 8 years of Hillary, that's why we are fighting to prevent Rudy from getting nominated. If he does get nominated the results will be 8 years of Hillary, and you'll have no one to blame but YOURSELF my FRiend. Below is a letter you can expect to get in the mail if Rudy is nominated.
Dear RINO Rudy Supporters,
I want to thank you for your wonderful support in helping to get me elected POTUS. Bill and I are so thrilled to be back in the White House again. Your active support for Rudy, and getting him nominated, was the key to me winning. Without your help Bill and I would not be here today.
Affectionately Yours,
President Hillary Rodman
P.S. I plan to nominate Rudy to the Supreme Court as soon as there is a vacancy. He will help us tilt the court back in our favor to assure that millions more unborn babies will never see the light of day. After all, it's every woman's right!
P.S.S. As you recall, my campaign slogan was, "We're Going to Take Things Away From You on Behalf of the Common Good" ALL YOUR POSSESIONS BELONG TO ME---YEEHAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

At the request of a fellow Freeper, I pulled the picture of Rudy in the chorus line from my posts. This is the thanks I received in return? Thanks a lot.

Haven't you heard that Rudy is passing up the first debate in April? They are having a debate with all the candidates in NH and Rudy feels he can pass on it.

You are pushing it there FRiend. The *vast* majority welcome Rudy being promoted on FR? Ha! I would say that a majority of us are repulsed at the idea of a liberal candiate being promoted here on FR. Jim may welcome it, but he is no fan of Rudy, he's made that clear numerous of times. It might be more accurate to say it's tolerated here by some of us who still believe conservative principles. We aren't pleased to see people here throwing their support behind a liberal candidate, especially this early in the game.
I just wanted to clarify this here lest some people think that we are just thrilled to death to have a democrat in republican clothing being promoted here. Far from it--very far from it!

Yet, on the Fox News show, Giuliani said that he supports a ban on partial-birth abortion as long as there is a provision to protect the life of the mother.
"If it has provision for the life of the mother, then I would support it," he told the Fox News program.
Washington, D.C. The House of Representatives yesterday passed H.R. 760, the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003, by a margin of 282-139. Congressman Duncan Hunter (CA-52), who is a cosponsor of the legislation, proudly voted in favor of this measure which prohibits medical doctors, except in situations where the LIFE OF THE MOTHER is threatened, from utilizing certain procedures that involve the partial delivery of a living unborn baby, killing the child, then completing the delivery

I didn't say vast majority, I said "contingent." And while I can understand how Freepers might not be happy when other Freepers don't agree with them on some issue or some candidate, I'd venture that the idea of free debate is and has always been welcome here, even when it gets heated.
