"It will also give the dems huge boosts in both houses, as the big block of pro-lifers will stay home. Giving the dems great head-way in their agenda."

If they do something stupid like that, then they will deserve the government they get. For a group that claims to be so Godly, they sure don't listen to what he says very well. They need to re-read a few bible stories. I don't see anywhere in the bible where it says we should just give up and turn everything over to Satan if the situation seems hopeless. In fact it says to make the best of the situation no matter how gloomy it is. Do the best we can with what we have and pray. Continue doing God's work with what you have. Imagine what the world would be like today if all the prophets and apostles simply gave up and said the heck with it all, and sat home.

no, so we are telling the GOP now, before it is too late, to do whatever it takes to prevent rudy from getting the nomination

And Besides, Rudy is only one person. A strong, and hopefully wiser GOP majority in both houses can keep him under control. Now I don't hope for a Rudy. We've got a ways to go before this campaign actually starts. I know I for one sure am sick of these continuous elections.

One thing I'd like to see is a ban on campaigning for a certain period between elections, and a cap on how much can be spent for each POTUS hopeful in an election season. Hillary would have to shut up for the rest of the year if such a law was in place because she's been campaigning since Bush won last year. A six month campaign season would be enough for me.

How about this old saw: Be in the world, but not of it.

You need to reread your scripture, FRiend. If given the choice between Hillary and Rudy as the major party nominees, many Christians will vote their conscience. Against BOTH.

What good is winning the white house if by doing so one dooms both one's party and one's soul?

I don't see anything in the Bible about supporting an adulterous man that used the power of government to kill the unborn and promote sexual sin that violates Biblical morality just in order to win an election for a political party.

What is STUPID is think voting for a liberal running as a Republican won't do more damage than putting a liberal Democrat in the White House.

Either way, you have been warned. Millions will stay home of Giuliani is the nominee and that will make Hillary Clinton the next President? Don't like that? Work hard to make sure the next GOP nominee is one that can unify the party.
