I know there is no perfect candidate. Neither I nor Walter E Williams are running.
However, I want a candidate that is more conservative than liberal. With rudy, I would get a candidate who is much more liberal than conservative, and one that is hostile to individual rights, unless that 'right' is abortion, then he's all for it.
"If you want to deny LIBERALS their appointments to the Supreme Court, you can't back a loser for the 2008 presidential election."
If I want to deny liberals an appointment to the supreme court, I can't back rudy, because he's as liberal as any candidate on almost every issue that will go before the supreme court.
