A Giuliani Candidate is going to struggle to get people to hold their nose to vote for him.
looking in the crystal ball:
He will not get campaign money.
He will not get ground volunteers.
He will NOT have coat tails to help OTHER candidates.
awww darn, I had the crystal ball set for 1996, nope same result with 2008 rinoRudy.
Dole had no attraction to conservative voters. Rudy, undeniably has the same lack of attraction.
the solution remains, no Giuliani = no problem.
I see support from the center and even anti-Hillary Dems. But with a hard conservative candidate, you can write off any cross over.
In the mean time, there are lots of us who can remember '96 and will refuse to allow foot dragging from the right slow us down. We will send campaign money, and do the foot work that an election requires.
