Funny, those are my three favorite candidates, in that order.
Whatever you may think about Mitt, Fred or Rudy, it’s a 100% certainty that the political left wants as many social conservatives on the right as possible to support Huckabee and all the rest of the political right to support McCain.
I wonder why....
welcome to Free Republic....
Fred = great
Mitt = good
Rudy = acceptable
McCain or Huckabee = NO. If either one of these two boobs is on the ballot in November, they’re not getting my vote, no matter who they’re running against.
All the talk radio hosts know they will be off the air and looking for work if a Democrat is elected President in ‘08. If that isn’t the first order of business for the Democrat Congress, it won’t be far down their list of “to-do’s.” That’s why they have to try to direct their listeners to the candidates that have a chance of winning, but believe me, no matter who is the Republican nominee, they will be flacking for him big time and trying to get everyone enthused and on the reservation and not voting 3rd party. They will all fall madly in love with Huckabee or whoever gets the nomination because their lucrative living is on the line.
They are in the bag for Romney AKA Bush44. Rooty is their escape hatch if Myth flunks lunch. I have not heard El Flushbo even mention the abortion loving, gun grabbing, cross dressing LIB from NYC. The silence is deafening. You would think that he would be getting hammered almost as much as McLame or Mike Huckabee. Hmmm.
Good grief. Giuliani and Romney are liberals. Anyone claiming either is a conservative based on their records is ignorant or a liar. Proof available upon request.
Hunter > conservative than Thompson,
Thompson > conservative than Romney,
Romney > conservative than Guiliani,
Guiliani > conservative than McCain
McCain > conservative than Hucklebee (at least on some things)
Hucklebee > conservative than Hillary
Hillary > conservative than Edwards (and more corrupt than all combined)
Edwards > conservative than Obama
Obama > conservative than Kuchinich
Rush and most people who are paying close attention know that:
- Hunter doesn’t have a prayer,
- Thompson is an extremely long-shot who rarely demonstrates life or consciousness (unfortunately),
- Romney could conceivably win in the General,
- Guiliani would break apart the conservative coalition to the point that a Democrat would be more likely to win and many, many Pubbies would stay home and not vote,
- McLame would be worse than Guiliani,
etc.
I am strongly in favor of Thompson. If he can't make it, Romney is my fall-back option. If McCain or Huck is the nominee, I would hold my nose and vote R over D.
1. Fred
2. Mitt
3. McCain
4. Huck
Never. Rudy
Why do you care what ANY media think? It’s this idea that you have to have “media” people talking about you is what’s wrong with people.
You let them choose your candidate? Did you vote for the Student Council President that was “more popular” because he was the captain of the football team or back the most qualified?
If the GOP nominates Rudy, Romney, Huck or McInsane I’ll be sipping whiskey on election day in November while digging my bunker awaiting the Liberal Facist administration of Hillary/Obama/Edwards since I can at least count on their actions.
Anymore “compassionate conservative” big government BS ala Bush and I’d rather at least get a Democrat because they don’t LIE about their intentions.
From a limited government Western Sagebrush Rebellion conservative Republican perspective, Rudy is just about as far from a conservative as they get. As they say with complete distain in the salsa commercial - “New York City?”
“Giuliani, Romney and Thompson are the only true conservatives(Vanity)”
You appear to be delusional. Thompson is the only conservative of the three, Mitt is a moderate and Rudy is a flaming liberal.
FR is wrong about Romney. He is NOT a Liberal and never was.
Ping!
Lots of fresh FReepers posting vanities these days. Welcome to Free Republic.
