If every poster here who supports Rudy, or is considering supporting Rudy is banned, it would mean ZIP in regard to Rudy's candidacy, but would instead, IMO, only negatively impact FR.

.... if they are promoting ANYTHING favorable to that stealth-'Rat/RINO-Rudy, they've got no business here...

Well, if Jim wants this to be a "Rudy-free-site" or an "anti-Rudy-site" - he should state that policy and apply it.

If you had been reading any of his threads then you would know that he HAS stated that policy, and IS applying it.

It’s been the stated policy of FR from the beginning.

CONSERVATISM!! period!

I just posted this but earlier I’ll move it to a more current thread

I don’t think it will be one of the dim leaders. I think it’s becoming clear that hillaries negatives are too high and the electorate won’t go for a lightweight like Obama.
Look for Gore to step in later this summer. “for the good of the party”. He will be able to unify the moonbat wing and the rank and file....the whole dim party. Also there will be no Nader. Remember he already won the poler vote acting like like a 2nd grade teacher. I watched 10 minutes of his movie last nite and though I disagree with it I was impressed how warm and polished he came off. He’s a LOT BETTER then he was in 2000.
He’s gonna be really tough to beat. I’m not sure Rudy...Thompson..or Romney can beat him. As for the rest of the Repub nominees....forgetaboutit.

I like all three of our guys.

What worries me about Romney is that he’s too slick by a half but I’m open.....

What worries me about Thompson (if he runs} does he have the fire to take on Gore? Also does he have the temperament to take on his own party? I worry that he could be another W. Say all the right things but be too much of a “good ol boy” and not be enough of a an asskicker to really slap around his former senate colleagues regarding earmarks...entitlement reform...tax reform...energy policy...the border...tort reform all the things that W with all three branches of government failed miserably on.
Though I’m also open.

Rudy does have that temperament. He slapped around the establishment in NYCity and it’s in his nature to do it again in Washington. I’m not worried about Rudy on the border the chaos down there should inflame his law and order sensibilities and I think he would clamp down. Currently he is the only one talking about are insane tax code and considering a flat tax....wonderful. He also brings up vouchers...great. He also talks about drilling in the gulf when all the other pols are worring about losing FLA...more great

That leaves guns and abortion that is judges. Rudy knows that to accomplish cleaning up our fiscal mess and waging war on our Islamic enemies not to mention holding off the dims and the MSM he will need the base including the socons firmly in his camp. I would expect him to give on those....

If he tried to pull something like nominating a Souter it would ignite a firestorm that would make the Miers pick look like nothing. He is not stupid enough to take on his own base when his plate will already be full.

If someone would like to discuss this with me instead of spamming me or insulting me I’d like that.

Don't kid yourself sugar, if FR cleans house, based upon member poll results, it will mean nothing but the loss of 9.9 percent of FINOs who won't be posting that Rudy-drivel day in, day out, and it quite frankly WOULD have an undetermined impact on Rudy's already swirling-the-bowl candidacy, because if FR purged itself of all the RudyBots, THAT is the kind of story that shows up in the political blogs, gets picked up by the news outlets, and while it might not be the final nail in Rudy's political coffin, it would be a significant nail.

.... if they are promoting ANYTHING favorable to that stealth-'Rat/RINO-Rudy, they've got no business here...

Works for me!
