"I would suspect that the GOP would have offered up the services of Kristol or somebody with experience to help get him off the ground."

That's right, Rowdee, you could suspect that. On the other hand, when you also know that they were college roomates, you might think they were closely tied. On this thread, people have been trying to put a lot of distance between Keyes and Kristol

[Rowdee]

What I am getting at is how different they are philosophically.....I see Kristol as a neo-con whereas Keyes is hard Christian conservative right. I believe Kristol is pro-choice, too, though I could be wrong.

Yeah, and on this thread a lot of people have been trying to hang a lot of crap on.

I'm certainly no fan of Kristol. However, I think some here try to make too much of the fact that they were roomates and probably friends in college. People do change over the years.

While Keyes and Kristol were roomates in college, others were boozing, partying and members of "secret societies" doing who knows what kind of weird things.
