I think there is a difference between honest debates between, and about, all of the Republican candidates, and an organized “swift-boating” of one of them. I’ve done some studying lately and found that some here, including the owner of this forum, had attacked George W. Bush in a similar manner when he was first running for President.

And many of the concerns expressed about Bush back then have come to haunt the GOP since - especially spending in the guise of compassionate conservatism.
However, at least Bush was half conservative. Rudy's maybe 20 percent and shrinking every time he opens his yap.

As I understand it, honest debates on the issues aren't to be tolerated. A new way of winning the hearts and minds of voters. After all, it's May, everyone's mind is made up isn't it.
And you're right about GWB, who in my view was worthy of attacks on the issues.
