‘They were instrumental in propelling George W. Bush to power—twice—and now they’re feeling neglected.’

Given how close the 2000 and 2004 races were, EVERYBODY was ‘instrumental’.

Sheesh.

He would appoint more conservative judges than hillary.

No, he wouldn't. He would appoint liberal RINOs like Souter and Stevens.

And what EXACTLY has Rooty done that makes you think he is qualified to be commander-in-chief?

And what makes you think anyone that wants to get an abortion is not going to go to Canada or Mexico?

Nothing, but since you bring it up, how can we trust a guy like Rooty who doesn't care about securing the borders?

Do you really think that if they overturn RoeWade that that is going to stop someone? Is that your main reason for electing a President?

No, I want a president who is a CONSERVATIVE and being pro-life is an essential element of conservatism.

I will support whatever Repubbie nominee gets elected. I want the most conservative one we can get (Duncan or Thompson).....but, I also want the one who CAN win against the beast. I do not want to suffer through another 8 years of the Clintons...it would be so depressing for me. Seriously.
Also...I think Rudy would be tough on terror....which in this day and age is the most important thing to me ....and I think he's a nice guy....

We will leave it at getting Duncan Hunter or Fred Thompson nominated.

We’ll argue about the Rudibeest after the primary season.

BTW, you assist the media liberals by telegraphing that you’ll support Rudy if a true conservative does not win.

I would think the media liberals would be petrified if Rudy getting the nomination. I think he would get alot of the Indepenedent and even Democrat votes over Ms. Cankles.

Hardly.

Rudy is anti-gun.

He is pro-illegal immigration and amnesty.

He is anti-life.

He is pro-gay union

He is anti-family

He believes in federal funding of abortion

He raised taxes.

He appointed liberal judges

He has supported NY liberal dem candidates over the republicans in state elections.

He harbors a known male homosexual child molester on his staff AND he has wildly participated in gay parades, cross-dressing, etc.

He pushed Kerik, known philander and organized crime connections.

He cruelly dumped wives and children, publicly humiliating them. (IF that’s what ‘loyalty to commitment’ means to the man, then how loyal will he be to his ‘political marriage partners,’ the conservatives?)

It just goes on and on. Those who are blind are those who would support this man at all.

He is every bit as liberal (and evil) as Hillary.

But we don’t have the system you describe.

Now what?

Will you still, by your actions, provide de facto support Hillary?

a Giuliani presidency would be much worse for conservatives than a Hillary presidency.

This statement gets my vote as the dumbest thing I have ever read on this forum.

Guliani would do the same thing: We simply can afford another RINO as President!

This seems to be the lib attack this month, getting the GOP to split their votes as in 92 or 96. Bad, bad idea.

I also heard last night that many people did NOT have insurance on their homes....and that FEMA was there to help them rebuild. Which really ticked me off because I pay almost $2,000 (with an $8,000 deductible for hurrincane) for a villa -for insurance every year. If FEMA is going to pay for a new home, I’ll cancel my insurance.

“I don’t hear him saying or running on making abortion easier”

He’d have Ron Paul numbers if he was. Rudy is many things, I do not believe that “stupid” is one of them.

(also he appears to be trying not to flip completely over, I honestly don’t think he cares that much if a woman has a choice or not)


See now that can be taken a different way ie; “I honestly don’t think he cares that much if babies are murdered in the womb or not.”

“Newsweak is trying to cause division.”

There really is division. The news media didn’t make this stuff up.

I agree, as I said, I think he was agnostic in NY, and we will have to agree to disagree that he is an stealth activist for more abortions and is just lying about it, lol, while campaigning for pro-life Republicans and his own campaign?

Its a stretch, he has never seemed like the kind of man who cared about social issues at all. Not everything is a conspiracy.

But I repeat myself, anyway, the topic was IF value voters will create a 3rd party, and I just don’t see it, they are not organized enough to agree on a candidate nor will they allow the Clintons as their sons and husbands CIC with boots on the ground. More than likely they will rally around FT or Mitt, my guess. Personally for me the perfect candidate is Hunter, but it is not to be, he is not a "star" I guess.

But know matter who is the nominee I will never vote for a Dim. Never. They are AntiAmerican in every way.
