” If Rudy Giuliani is the Republican nominee in 2008, I will make it a point to cast a vote . . . against him.”

so you would vote for Clinton over Rudy? yikes that is disturbing. I vote my heart in the primaries which will be Fred if he runs if not then probably Duncan Hunter
then if it is Rudy vs. Hillary i will hold my nose and vote for someone i agree with say 30% of the time over 0%

LOL, good grief, it appears many here want the commie vampire bi!ch to take office.

Maybe they want her “free” Hillary Care?

Or just are emotional and like martyrdom? Could be trolls?

Probably all of the above, ignore them, they are sick.

If Rudy is the nominee, I will do all I can to help the Republican Party go the way of the Whigs. Out of the debacle of a Hillary presidency, perhaps a conservative party can be created.

I supplied another fact, and you replied with diffuse worry.

My postings were not diffuse worry. They are legitimate worry, bordering on literal outright justified fear.

Do you really think this country will survive 4 years under Mrs. Bill Clinton and a Democrat Congress?

... i will hold my nose and vote for someone i agree with say 30% of the time over 0%

Unfortunately this is what most elections become... a question of who is the "least worst" candidate as opposed to who is the best candidate. At this point, I don't care if the GOP nominee is Mickey Mouse. He'll get my vote if it means keeping Mrs. Bill Clinton out of the White House.

[pnh102]

The New York senator was favored by 36 percent of Democrats polled.

Mrs. Bill Clinton was recently re-elected with 67% of the vote in New York. This is even more proof that "favorability ratings" mean 0 to the Democrat party.

[madprof98]

The country has survived worse than that.

[pnh102]

The country has survived worse than that.

When was the last time the USA had a President and Congress who were so anti-USA? Even Warren Harding and James Buchanan still loved the USA.

I wholeheartedly agree all those schmucks who stayed home in NH are as much to blame as the Dims who elected Carole Che Porter

[MEGoody]

Mrs. Bill Clinton could be liked by 0% of Democrats but will still get 110% of the Democrat vote.

Hillary will only win if she is able to pull of voter fraud of unprecedent proportions. (Of course, we are talking about Hillary, so that is a possibility.)

[pnh102]

Mrs. Bill Clinton will also be able to win if conservatives and other Republicans decide to sit out the 2008 election because the nominee isn't perfect enough.

I can't vote for Rudy or Ronnie. Anyone else (that is currently running or said to be declaring soon) I can handle.

"Democrats but will still get 110% of the Democrat vote."

Much more than that, if you count the dead Democrat vote. Dead Democrats can vote twice, don't forget.

[pnh102]

I can't vote for Rudy or Ronnie.

I can understand not supporting said people during the primaries, but in a general election, not voting for the GOP nominee is the same as voting for Mrs. Bill Clinton. As much as these 2 people don't appeal to you, they are certainly more likely to entertain some of your opinions as opposed to Mrs. Bill Clinton, who won't entertain any.

[MEGoody]

I can't see how either Rudy or Ronnie would be less of a disaster than Hillary. I would never vote for her, but as I said, I can't vote for either of them.

How can you compare a presidential-year election to a midterm election? Can you show that voter turnout remains consistent between the two yypes of elections?

[pnh102]

Can you show that voter turnout remains consistent between the two yypes of elections?

It doesn't matter. The fact is fewer voters voted in 2006 and we lost the Congress as a result. The Democrats always turn out to vote Democrat. Republicans tend to stay home when we get pissed off. The result, regardless of election, are losses... major losses.

[nickcarraway]

Why don't you respond to Modelbreaker's excellent reply to you? The fact is that conservatives turned out very well in 2006. The moderates were a problem. But if it gets in the way of vilifying conservatives, please ignore that. After all, conservatives are the source of all evil in the world.

I know I was out voting and working on GOTV in 2006, even though the people whoI helped elect in '00, '02, '04 didn't do much to deserve my work.

[nickcarraway]

I love how you blame conservatives, but you won't give any blame to politicians. They bear no blame whatsoever, right? They governed in a matter consistent with their supposed affiliations, right? I voted and did GOTV in 2006, but frankly, the majority of Republicans deserved low turnout, even though they didn't get it. Even though I was working to get them elected, I knew they had screwed up.
