the GOP runs the risk of allowing a true third party threat to take shape in 2008. They won’t be able to win but it will ensure a Hillary presidency. She must be loving the idea of a Rudy nomination.

No way I can read all this thread, so I am going to echo that. There are millions of us, getting ready for church this morning, who cannot hold our noses, (as we have done in the past), and cast our vote for Rudy. I can understand the pragmatic argument, but it fails when I have to discard my principles.

I only hope that the power in the GOP can understand that.

It remains to be seen if there are "millions" of you.

Personally, I doubt it, but that's why we have primaries. If you are correct, it will be impossible for Giuliani to be nominated and you won't have to worry.

I rather think that the numbers of hard-core social conservatives who won't vote for Giuliani, even in the primaries, is small enough not to matter.

But, as they say, that's why they play the games.

Let the games begin.

Oh sure, we stay up all night in spirited debate, and you can’t even find time to read a measely 1700+ comments. How lazy can you be?

:-). Seriously, I’m kidding. Welcome to the thread.
