Vote Yes or No on Rudy

The National Catholic Register is out with an editorial where they say the following: No deal Rudy. We cannot support you. Here's why:
"Rudys deal: Hell promise not to push the pro-abortion agenda, and hell nominate judges in the mold of Samuel Alito and John Roberts. Pro-lifers in the Republican Party in return would support him, but keep insisting that the party stay pro-life, and fight our fiercest pro-life battles at the state level, where they belong.
We also see the downside of Rudys deal. If pro-lifers went along, wed soon find out that a pro-abortion Republican president would no longer preside over a pro-life party. The power a president exerts over his partys character is nearly absolute. The party is changed in his image. He picks those who run it and, both directly and indirectly, those who enter it.
Thus, the Republicans in the 1980s became Reaganites. The Democrats in the 1990s took on the pragmatic Clintonite mold. Bushs GOP is no different, as Ross Douthat points out in Its His Party in the March Atlantic Monthly.
A Republican Party led by a pro-abortion politician would become a pro-abortion party. Parents know that, when we make significant exceptions to significant rules, those exceptions themselves become iron-clad rules to our children. Its the same in a political party. A Republican Party led by Rudy Giuliani would be a party of contempt for the pro-life position, which is to say, contempt for the fundamental right on which all others depend."

Never Rudy McRomney.
Hunter. Paul. Gingrich. Our only real choices. No matter how popular the Big Three RINO's are with the liberal media.

A Republican Party led by a pro-abortion politician would become a pro-abortion party.
I can just see the commercials now.
You may rip your baby apart the week before he his born if that is what you want to do with no penalty whatsoever.
I am Rudy Giuliani and I support this murder.

IF Rudy takes the nomination, I will vote "Yes" over the
demonc
ratic nominee.
To do otherwise is not only foolish but downright stupid.
The place to vote "No" on Rudy is during the primaries, NOT the general election.

Freepers have already voted on Rudy - twice.
Rudy came in second to Newt Gingrich, and Rudy is now coming in second to Fred Thompson.

I will vote no in Primaries and General Elections.
But, I doubt he will make it to the General. Matter of fact, I'm sure he is stepping out of the race before then.
