Thank you for your reply, but I hoped for more than generalizations.

Why not name some names? Who do you think might be the Republican administration’s Secretary of Defense compared to the SECDEF in a Rat administration?

Let’s see. What about the EPA? INS? Education?

Give me some names so that I can evaluate your statement that “Rudy’s nominations will [not] be much different than Hillary’s.”

Nice try but I'm not going to bite.
Rudy is a liberal - you know it, as well as the rest of his supporters. He doesn't hide it.
I have no idea who either he or Hillary would nominate - and neither do you. However, it is very reasonable to assume he would nominate folks with views similar to his. It would be unreasonable to assume he would nominate those with views in opposition to his.
What is it you like? Gun Control?, legalization of Homosexual Marriage?, perhaps a stepped up murder effort against our weakest in society - our children?, maybe it's open borders, the list continues...
I find it interesting that of the whole lot running, you insist that we settle for nothing so you can "win", instead of doing what we have been accused of not doing, and that is settling for just a bit less of what you want (apparently liberalism) - and getting behind one of the others that doesn't split the vote as deeply.
That is how the liberals negotiate - how much of your backyard are you going to give up - none of their back yard is ever on the table.
Rudy is the ONLY nominee that is a sure fire loser in the general election - because his views and the Democrats views are almost the same.

I do have my favorite - Duncan Hunter, however I can vote for any of the others. except Rudy - even if I have to hold my nose.
It is serious - deadly serious.

The only significant difference is on the war. However, Rudy is the most likely of all the nominees to trade off his position there to get something else he wanted in the Congress. Do you think for a minute he will stand up the Dems on this one issue he differs with them on, when he will need them to defeat the Republican legislation in congress on the other 99.99% that he agrees with the liberal Democrats on? - I think not.
I will settle for far less than I want - but I will not continue to support the Republicans race to out Left the Democrats.

Cordially,
GE
