We got Bush as the nominee in 2000 because he was the "anointed one." He was selected by the PTB (whoever the hell they are) and proclaimed “frontrunner” and de facto nominee by the media and all pundits before anyone else could even get out of the starting gates. He was ramrodded through over the objections from the grassroots. Kind similar to what’s going on now, but it’s even starting earlier.

Bush won the primaries. This notion that nominees are forced on anyone is tinfoil. Same tinfoil that's going on now regarding Giuliani. If you don't want Giuliani, field a candidate who can garner more votes.

That is what we are doing. It is the Rudy side that says they have the only candidate who can win, and if we don't get behind him Hillary will be President. Just see post #50.

They’d rather spend their time trashing the frontrunner instead of trying to boost their candidate.

Same as they did in 2000 when they were calling Bush a cokehead and pushing Alan Keyes. There are a lot of freepers who are feeling marginalized that they can’t pick a winner.

If that is true, could you then explain to me why the MSM states that no candidates exist in the race that appeal to the conservative base....when there clearly is an they just don't want to talk about them?

Ok. You’re right. The primaries are over. Today’s frontrunner is declared the winner. Let’s get to the elections. All in favor of Giuliani please signify by raising your hands. All done. Woo hoo! Let’s all go to the Rudy victory ball.

What’s that you say? Oh, you wish to have a primary fight? Sorry, that’s old hat. If you’re not for the frontrunner, you’re an ignorant fool and you just want to give the election to Hillary. Whatsa matter? You don’t believe in national security or what?? Squaaak!!

Ironically, those who don't support Giuliani get criticized for doing exactly that.

I'm all for allowing Giuliani a shot in the primaries, but he has to earn the nomination, Maggie. That means his liberal views are going to get addressed and hammered on.

Billdo and Shrillery were chosen as fair haired carriers of the MARXIST ball to score touchdowns for Communism/Socialism/Globalism

way before they were anointed to be co-Presidents.

I forget if it was Boxerface or some other California DIMRAT but one was commenting to a friend at a big party in CA that they were so thrilled and proud of such a couple being brought along to rise to the occasion etc.

I don’t know what leads you to be so dismissive of the idea that folks are anointed by the MSM and the Party power brokers but it’s a reality. And once done, it’s durn near impossible to overcome.

I don’t care to even try and document the evidence but quality evidence is available for those who want the truth enough to bother.
