Yet Ted Kennedy is frequently referred to as “devout Cathoic . . . from the devout Kennedy family”. What a joke!

I don’t know about Republicans losing more seats - I just believe that pro lifers will stay home (like me) and that this will ultimately weaken the GOP. On the bright side, no self respecting pro lifer could vote for a Demo. They are the party of Death.

My projection is based on what Bush’s dad did to the Republican party during his single term in office.

According to an AP report, Giuliani said whether he was a true Catholic was a personal matter...

What a strange remark.

Surely the GOP knows better than to lose the pro-life voters...?

Pro-lifers will not vote for a pro-abortion candidate, no matter who the candidate is.

The GOP better realize this fact before 2008, or they can count on losing big time to the Dems.

Lightening striking Rudy’s mike at the last debate comes to my mind right now.

Coincidence?

My religious affiliation, my religious practices and the degree to which I am a good or not so good Catholic, I prefer to leave to the priests," Giuliani said, according to the AP report.

I'm not a Rudy supporter, but what do you want him to say? He's excommunicated himself on two counts.

He answered the question the best way he could and he's right. The state of his soul is between him, the priest and God.

I wonder if he thinks this makes him closer in power/influence to Rush. He’s trying to take what he believes is the pragmatic road here, and as far as I can tell it’s a road that is going to either lead him squarely into a huge immovable wall, or off a cliff.

I will vote for Hillary before I vote for Rudy

That would be foolish since party trumps person and you'd, at the very least, be cutting off your nose to spite your face. If you'd honestly rather have that commie Hildebeast selecting supreme court justices and defending this country than Giuliani, you're nuts.

Well if you go by what the pope dictates there are damned few good Catholics in the US. How many actually believe that birth control of any kind is out of the question? I am betting the number is a lot less than those who use them among the faithful. And for the record, I am not a Rudy fan or supporter.

************************************
Not at all Rudy would be the end or the republican party and if you think he can be trusted with supreme nominations think again , Rudy wouldn’t recognize the constitution if you smacked him in the head with it ,, just look at his anti-constitutional positions ,,, at least we could unite in opposing Hillary ,, but Rudi’s nominations would be something we would have to gag over and swallow whole... face it of those two there isn’t a pennies worth of difference except that Hillary is honest about her positions as a Stalinist... ALSO I would think that Hillary would be MUCH more aggressive in defending this country as she couldn’t afford for us to be attacked and the libs would give her a pass on any offensive action taken...

Rudy is done .... Hannity (the lightweight thinker that he is) has lost all credibility ... maybe he just needs to move away from NY and see the real world without the daily bath in the flood of socialism that is NY...

Not sure what will happen in 2008. It appears that the surge is working which I think will help the GOP.

Well, of COURSE Rudy isn’t going to answer that question. It would show what a hypocrite he really is.

True, but his postion on abortion is definitely between he and the voters.
