The socials are even threating openly to end the coalition. If someone pro-choice like Rudy is nominated, many have threatened to bolt the coalition.


With all due respect, advancing a candidate that is opposed to the views of many coalition members is what ends the coalition.

The coalition is built on the common ground of 'smaller govt, strong on defense, etc'.

Political conservatives will vote for pro-life candidates, as long as we believe they'll be political conservatives. We've proven that. But now, the socials are saying they *won't* vote for pro-choice candidates, no matter what.

If the Socials have now decided that their social views are more important that that core commonality, then they are the ones ending the coalition.

With all due respect, we didn't have any problem expecting them to accept our choice over the last 20 years. Why is it we expect them to never get anything EVER?

Hillery smiles when the circular firing squad of Giuliani/Hunter is active on FR. It means she is winning.
