Yes, but it is STILL more than Giuliani polls. Therefore, Giuliani must need some of that smoking stuff you were talking about, IF the argument is that polling 27% of Republicans should cause an idea to go by the wayside.

I didn't say that any "idea should go by the wayside." I'm just mocking the notion that an abstract idea with 27% support is on the verge of a general election victory.

One can just run a conservative Republican in a write-in campaign.

Dude. Put the pipe down now. I'm serious.

Name one write-in candidate who's won any office in a jurisdiction with over a thousand voters. I mean, it's a fine strategy for a student council election, but POTUS? Please.

It’s never been tried.

But, it has a very clear benefit, even if it does not prevail: it would be a clear head count of all the votes the republicans threw away.

I’m guessing that you used to smoke dope. :>)

Finally, “life” is not an abstract idea. You’re either dead or you’re alive. LIFE is not an idea, issue, infatuation, polling point, etc., etc.

It is a RIGHT given by God alone. It is the ultimate RIGHT. Take away that RIGHT and all other rights and all other issues, ideas, abstracts, etc., matter not one whit.

Dead people don’t care about any issues at all. They’re indisposed.
