Maybe the best thing we can do is to hold our collective noses really hard, and send money to Obama.

Hillary’s in trouble? This is a hit on Rudy.

It worked for Billy Boy. Ross Perot gladly stepped in to split the Repub vote and hand the election to the most immoral President in the history of our republic.

10-1 Ron Paul does enter the race, split the ticket and give us Hillary.

This would be a clear case of cutting off one's nose to spite one's face

Well, I guess I'll just have to learn to breathe through my ears then, because there's no way I'm voting for Rudy.

Rudy's nominated = 3rd party

The Rudy boosters are really out in force today. They believe that if they keep on saying he is the most electable then he must be the most electable. Sorry, but that is opposite of the truth....he is the least electable and must be defeated in the primaries.

And even if he did beat the beast, the GOP still loses having been driven so far left there is essentially no difference between dems and pubbies. Rudy is bad news all around and should go down like socks on a chicken.

‘Mr. Giuliani might be the strongest of the Republicans on border security’

Good one.

This is Rudy's game plan. The Democrats are just going to sit back and let nature runs it course.

Rudy's nominated = 3rd party

Not according to three separate polls, she’s not.

I have no stomach for a Gullianni presidency. If that’s what the Republican party has come to then I guess I’ll give up on them.

The third - and the most likely - is that Ron Paul will run on the Libertarian ticket. This should help Republicans...

Utter nonsense! Any significant third party showing will take away from the Republican ticket and hand the race to the Democrats. Just as Ross Perot did...twice!

Well, I don’t think the writer’s intentions are good, but he’s perfectly right that nominating Rudy would split the party.

But for that very reason, if no other, that contradicts his other assumption, that Rudy is the best candidate to defeat hillary. Nonsense. He would split the party and hillary would win in a walk.

That seems simple enough to understand. There are many, many conservative voters who will NEVER vote for Rudy for president. Including myself. And very few Democrat voters who would vote for Rudy, who is widely hated by liberals as well as rightly rejected by conservatives.

So, the answer is simple. Nominate a better candidate, one who has a chance of winning. Rudy doesn’t.

Guillani would not appoint conservative judges. Or rather he would, but his second choices, who would get confirmed, would be “moderates.”

In a two-candidate race, the Republican wins, especially if the Republican is named Giuliani. In a multiple candidate race, Mrs. Clinton wins

Ummm what?

It’s starting to appear that even a monkey could talk Hillary into a box.

I am convinced the only reason Bill beat Bush in 92 was because of Perot. It appears the only way Hillary can win is to get a third party candidate to the right of her. This would guarantee Hillary would become president. Under any circumstances Hillary would be worse than Rudy. I would not be surprised to see people like Soros pour money into a third party conservative candidate. Hillary must not become president. Ever.
