Mean while - back in the wider U.S.A.
Rudy continues to lead in all the polls.
Hmmm
Know why? Because there's a good percentage of Republican voters who are not conservatives at all. They're not the majority, but they seem to be about 20-30% of the voters. They support Rudy because all the other candidates are conservative. As a result, the various conservative GOP candidates split the vote of the Republican base, whereas Rudy keeps leading by taking the whole vote of the RINOs who despise conservative values.
But then, you probably know that . . . SINCE YOU ARE ONE OF THEM!
