The Huckster has already decreed that any examination of his record will be called “negative campaigning”.

Then let the negative campagining begin. You can’t run for POTUS without a thorough examination of your record and everything else under the sun.

If the records of the candidates are going to become off limits to discussion during a campaign, we might as well just put all their names in hat and draw one on election day.

A vote for Duncan Hunter or Fred could also have been a socially conservative vote. But it also would have been a vote for closed borders, lower taxes, 2nd amendment rights, traditional marriage, and a better choice to kick the raghead head choppers in the teeth. I'm sure the Huckster is a nice man and probably a capable preacher, but we are voting for more than that. Tancredo was right on EVERY issue I ever heard him talk about, but was labeled a one issue candidate. A very important issue, but still only one. He was the first one out, and Hunter and Fred aren't getting much traction.

I've said since the beginning, if Guliani or Mitt is the candidate, most likely enough evangelicals will stay home or vote 3rd party, we will have a Dimwit as president. They don't want Hillary or Obama, but they don't have anyone to vote FOR. If the Repubs want to go back to oblivion, just stick with tax cuts and Wall Street and ignore the social issues. Most Christians can't tell the difference between Guliani and Hillary. We have a different measuring stick. Republicans couldn't win anything until they got fed up with immoral, unpatriotic, paganistic, diversity, claptrap. Then they got traction from people that had some core belief systems. All belief systems are not equal. These "people" are not throw away's. We will be a permanent minority party if the Repubs think killing babies or anal sex is a "moderate" position. The "solid south" turned Republican when they got fed up with flag burning, gun grabbing, baby killing, communist leaning, prayer forbidding, God hating, fag lovers. These blue collar workers weren't changing parties by a tax cut proposal.

If the Repubs think Guliani or Bloomberg is a "good" Republican, their asses will be handed to them. They had better court the social conservatives or they will die a slow mediocre death.

Or worse than that according to some supporters on FR, its "Christian Bashing". Imagine, a born again Christian like myself cast out because I see through the Pharisee's charade.

Matt: 23;5 But for all their works they do to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries and enlarge the borders of their garments.

And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues.

And greetings in the market and to be called of men Rabbi Rabbi.

But be ye not called Rabbi for one is your Master even Christ.

Huck was on Hannity radio yesterday. What a slimey creature. Every question that Sean asked him he turned around to attack Mitt. He's a clever politician, too clever ... and I'll never vote for him.
