All Packing Baggage

Time Magazine reports that conservatives are dismayed with the likely choices for Republican nominee for President in 2008. From their point of view, here are the front runners and their liabilities:

Rudy Giuiliani: twice divorced due to public adultery; pro-choice, pro-gay, anti-gun

John McCain: once divorced, has had "wrong" stance on taxes, immigration, gay marriage amendment

Mitt Romney: was pro-choice, pro-gay rights when running in Massachusetts

Sam Brownback: ideologically fine, but has electability issues

George Allen: couldn't even win his own state in 2006

As a result, a lot of conservatives are looking for a dark horse like Mike Huckabee, Tommy Thompson, or maybe even Newt Gingrich. Dick Morris looked at Giuliani, McCain, Gingrich, and Romney and quipped: "The only one of these guys who hasn't had multiple wives is the Mormon."

Of course, the Democratic candidates also have a lot of baggage, starting with Hillary Clinton, who half the country already hates, but the Time story didn't go into the Democratic candidates.

Looks to me like the Republican Party is still onroad to self destruction regarding the Presidential race...Pretty soon there won't be a "name recognizable" candidate left that meets all the standards....

Can you say President Hillary :???: :( :mad: :mad:

Dr. James Dobson, of Focus on the Family

A prominent Christian leader whose radio and magazine outreaches are solidly in support of biblically-based marriages – and keep in touch with millions of constituents daily – says he cannot consider Arizona Sen. John McCain a viable candidate for president.

"Speaking as a private individual, I would not vote for John McCain under any circumstances," said James Dobson, founder of the Colorado Springs-based Focus on the Family as well as the Focus Action cultural action organization set up specifically to provide a platform for informing and rallying constituents.
