Those of you who say you will stay home because it will be "the fault of the Republican Party" do not make sense. There are a handful of top tier candidates, Rudy is one of them. If 30% of the voters choose Rudy and 70% split their vote amongst the other top tier guys, yet Rudy wins the nomination, how is that the Republican Party's fault?

It would seem to me that everyone had their say and a candidate to vote for. If you would rather have Hillary than Rudy, fine, but I will be watching for your comments in the future when Bill and Hillary are walking hand in hand with the media fawning over them. When taxes go up and a couple of 40 year old 9th circuit style judges get nominated to the Supreme Court. When US soldier are again killed without fear of reprisal except by lawyers, you can pound another beer and smile at your "Don't blame me, I voted for Perot" bumper sticker.

You are correct, sir.

When I get frustrated by fellow freepers who are willing to pull a Perot on us again I remind myself that we haven’t had a real knock-em out primary for a long time on the Republican side.

We saw what happened to the Dems last cycle with Kerry - all of the Deaniacs were crying and so on after the Great Yarrrrr Flame out.

Its hard when your candidate loses.

But supporting a third party candidate or sitting out the election will result in Hillary winning - and that cannot happen.

Which Republican candidate has received a 1000 dollars each from Chinese busboys? Which Republican hired Sandy (Stuffy) Berger for his staff? Which Republican candidate will fill the government with thousands of liberal party hacks? None - not even Rudy.

So, fellow Freepers - Stand hard on principles - fight harder for your candidate. But, by God, when the time comes, the best thing you can individually do for the safety, security, and economic prosperity of America is keep Hillary Clinton from becoming President by supporting the Republican nominee.

That must not happen.

The article said, So let's avoid that dire choice now. There's still time to avoid such an unpleasant scenario. Let's just nominate a Republican the Republican base can support.

So....why are YOU supporting Rudy?

He is more liberal than most liberals. He doesn't have a conservative bone in his body. I need to know what you like about him.
