To be honest, there is no electable candidate possible that meets your criteria as a conservative.

And what are "my criteria" you seem to know so well?

[Mia T]

Seriously, inform yourself.

Check out deletehillary.com.

Google "Barrett report."

BTW...I’m not against Mitt, he’s probably my second choice after Fred Thompson. Just saying, I think he’s too slick, has had some very recent, and very “convenient” changes of opinion, and cut and run from his own Governorship to run for President.

[RockinRight]

Do you really, truly believe that you will physically pass away at some point between 2009 and 2017 if Hillary is elected? I really couldn't imagine going through life that way.

I don't. However, I do believe that I'll be flat broke, miserable, and in a very bad mood about the future of my nation.

[Campion]

With his broad appeal, he has the potential to run the board.

He has ZERO appeal to this lifelong Republican, social conservative, and RKBA advocate.

Bill Clinton with an "R" beside his name and a Noo Yawk accent. No thank you.

I will not vote for him in the primary, and I will not vote for him in the general. Third-party or write-in if necessary.

You Rudybots have your heads in the sand if you think Rudy has any chance in the South. His nomination will be the beginning of the end of the GOP.

[Mia T]

In these perilous times, prioritizing isn't optional. It's crucial. If Rudy wants to go after the terrorists (both here and abroad) in high heels--hey--that's fine with me. ;)

Contrast this with clinton, who dispensed sugar pills (or bombs) at the drop of a high-heeled shoe... or at the hint of high treason... (The Real Danger of a Fake President: Post-9/11 Reconsideration of The Placebo President)

Sorry to wake you from your slumber, but does Islamo-terrorism ring a bell? Some of us do fear future attacks--forgive us for facing reality. Let's not even go into Bonnie and Clyde back in the White House depleting the military, ignoring terror threats, and giving us endless scandals, corruption, and the Clinton crime machine in action.

[Mia T]

So, in other words, because Rudy is a 'liberal'--
and with a 'Noo Yawk accent' no less,
you will be placing your de facto vote for hillary clinton, a Stalinist.

Makes abundant sense.

Speaking of McCain, If he gets the nomination, I think his VP selection will be critical.

Have you noticed McCain lately?
I think his melanoma is back. The left side of his face appears mighty swollen to me. And his face overall is gaunt.

2) Do they closely match my personal preferences as far as ideology is concerned.

There is a fundamental difference between presidential and Senatorial elections, and local representation.

Your #2 priority is better suited to local elections as that is where you get direct representation of your personal views.

Unfortunately for many in the Conservative base, they have intermixed personal views with conservative principles, in many instances.

Presidents and to a lesser degree Senators, represent big picture ideals and don't deal with the more local personal issues on a daily basis. As such they represent a much larger portion of the public basket, and they must not run afoul of their much larger constituencies.

If you look closely at the last election, some clues are found in the losses.

In the East, social conservative issues all lost. In the West, Immigration lost. In the Midwest, stem cells and immigration lost.

We need to avoid those issues for the coming National campaign to avoid the same fate.

That is political pragmatism. I don't know how you get around this. You must face it and deal with it and vector your candidate along his strengths and avoid weaknesses..

As divided as this country is, and with Conservative ideology suckling on the hind teat, we need to do the things necessary to win, and not dwell on issues that can derail the goal.

That's how I see it, and that's how we should all see it. But that is not what is happening at the present time, and may not happen, which will most certainly result in a 100% Democrat controlled government, once again.

Nonsense. If the POTUS selects liberal judges to the Supreme Court, that affects me directly and personally.

I have my principles and will stick with them, win or lose. Otherwise, my principles are worthless. Pragmatism isn't worth two cents without my personal liberties as guaranteed by the Bill of Rights, and I will never vote for a candidate whose record shows blatant disdain for the most important of those rights, which is the second amendment, IMO.

I see no point in voting for the male version of HRC. I don't care what he says, I made up my mind by observing his track record, and that record is a red flag that tells me "NO WAY". This is why I am pushing for a solid conservative with a very good chance of winning the election to be nominated to the Republican ticket. Alienating the base on the right that delivers in the 'get out the vote' effort is a recipe for disaster for the Republican party, IMO. As close as the 04 election was I would think that it would be obvious to anyone here on FR.

As I've already been told by one poster on this forum, my vote doesn't matter this time, the juggernaut that is RINO Rudy simply doesn't need me or my vote. Wonderful attitude I'm seeing here as of late.

WIGS, POWDER , THE PRESIDENCY AND RUDY:

A president's precedents. Consider George Washington.

Wigs were de rigueur in Washington's times. Indeed, stature was directly proportional to wig size.

Although Washington, himself, didn't wear a wig--the ponytail was all his--he did powder his locks.

As opposed to a chintzed-and-powdered hillary:

[C]onsider missus clinton's recent 'conversation' (with herself).

It was risible. Unintentional theater of the absurd: A chintzed-and-powdered villain, a soulless, angry, arrogant scold, oozing cloying, saccharine-coated evil, pulsating to the metronomic swing of stubby appendages--claws too short to grab its prey.

(Gesticulation is a dud's only sign of life... and then only if she has a speech coach to prod her.)

... We have argued elsewhere that the only way missus clinton can win elections is to run virtually unopposed, and then only if she remains immobil, hidden, mute, a prisoner of her own ineptitude, repulsiveness and criminality.

But of the three, it is missus clinton's repulsiveness--her ugliness--that will do her in.

The voters routinely ignore ineptitude, forgive criminality, but they never abide ugliness. Never.

HILLARY!

If Rudy gets the nomination... he will get my vote. That’s the best I can give you.

Sorry to wake you from your slumber, but does Islamo-terrorism ring a bell? Some of us do fear future attacks--forgive us for facing reality.

I'm the first to admit that I might be a bit weird here, but I'm not afraid of terrorists. The chances of me dying in, for instance, a car accident are exponentially higher than being the victim of terrorism, so I don't go about my day freaked out by it. And if they do manage to get me, well, I'm cool with Jesus, so that's OK.

Most people I know feel the same way, and I am located about 20 miles from New York City and knew several 9-11 victims.

[Mia T]

I’ll take it johnny. ;) (I will do the same if the candidate isn’t Rudy.)

[Mia T]

Ah. A fatalist. And a self-centered one, to boot.
