Ahhh then that means the millions of people who want Rudy for president in poll after poll in all 50 states are irrelevant because some people on Free Republic who don't like Rudy say so? Did you ever consider that Rudy got the idea of running because wherever he goes people tell him they WANT him to run? I love Free Republic but even I know that what we say and want is not what the rest of America wants as we saw what happened in 2006.
Go back and finish reading the post. I didn’t say Rudy supporters are irrelevant. I said ALL "I'll vote for whoever the party nominates" voters are irrelevant because the politicians don't have to earn their vote.
Rudy is way ahead right now because the MSM is pushing him and he has name recognition. He can’t win the general election because he can’t get big chunks of the conservative vote. Even if by some miracle he did squeak into a win, the MSM would have a liberal in the office. They would prefer a Democrat liberal but will accept a Republican liberal over a conservative.
So if you really don’t want Hillary as president, you need to start pushing for a conservative nominee and start telling the party establishment you will not vote for a liberal. That’s how you make them listen.
