I don't want to ignore the social conservatives.
On the contrary - I want to debate them at every opportunity.
That said - look at this thread - social conservatives are not exactly open to anyone who does not walk in lock step.
Some (not all) socical conservatives are damn scary people.
The President is Commander in Chief - not Preacher in Chief.
Dear Jake The Goose,
"That said - look at this thread - social conservatives are not exactly open to anyone who does not walk in lock step."
ROTFLMAO!! What a comedian!
I'm willing to vote for nearly anyone the party nominates. Sen. Allen, Sen. Frist, Sen. McCain, Rep. Tancredo, former Speaker Gingrich, Rep. Pence, Gov. Owens, Gov. Barbour, to name a few.
Several of these guys are truly flawed from a social conservative perspective.
Nonetheless, they offer to us social conservatives perhaps a slice of the loaf, if not a half-loaf (and very far from a whole loaf). In some cases, maybe little more than crumbs.
Conversely, Mr. Giuliani would take away what little part of the loaf that we have earned with great difficulty over the past few decades.
Your threat to social conservatives is that we must support our enemies or be read out of the party.
Okay. If you nominate our enemy, we will leave.
And take our votes with us.
How's that?

On some issues this is an absolute necessity. If this country doesn't get it right on many of these "social issues," then it has basically ceased to justify its own existence and is likely doomed to collapse anyway.
So you can understand why some of us really don't give a sh!t if the President of the United States is a radical leftist Democrat or a radical leftist Republican.
