However, I challenge the notion that there is something wrong with wanting the Republican Party to win the general election. You have criticized the desire to win the general election: on what basis? Again, I am genuinely interested.
I suppose this is where we differ. If the Republicans nominate Rudy - they no longer reflect my beliefs.
Given a choice between handing power to the Rats or to the Republicans-and that IS our choice on Election Day-one needs to do more than dismiss them as no difference"
I don't believe I've "dismissed" them as no different. Just listen to Rudy's positions - they are nearly the same as the Dems.
I suppose we differ here again. I would rather have a known enemy of our Republic, than a stealthy enemy.
There is a far better chance of controlling a Dem with a Rep congress (granted we would have to retake one of the houses) than we have controlling a liberal Republican with either a Rep OR a Dem congress.
I'm not going into names - because I have no idea who they would nominate. I have NEVER called that one right.
