Could the Stubborn Religious Right Hand the White House to Hillary?

I have heard of more than a few conservatives say they will not vote for Rudy under any circumstances, if he becomes the Republican nominee they will stay home or vote third party. Not even the prospect of a Hillary presidency seems to sway them. It is their right to do this, they can vote, or not vote for whom they want for any reason; but considering we are in the middle of a war on terror and the Democrats are controlled by far left anti war zealots who will never get it this is a very irresponsible decision. These people either have a lot of faith in the democrats fortitude on the war on terror, or they would rather America be weakened by the lefts policies than have a republican like Rudy Giuliani win the presidency. They have to realize you can't always get the perfect candidate. I differ with all the GOP candidates on a few issues. Candidates like Sam Brownback worry me on issues like the separation of church and state, but I would vote for him over any of the democrats. Despite my concerns I trust him on the fight against radical Islam more than the dems, and that alone is worth my vote. I disagree with Rudy on abortion and gun control but I trust him on fighting terrorism and he has said he will appoint conservative judges. On the issues the religious right disagrees with Rudy they also disagree with the dems. With Rudy Giuliani conservatives will at least have a seat at the table, not so with Hillary and most likely a democratic congress. Our only hope is that these people will regain their sanity before November of 2008 and realize what is at stake, not only the supreme court and private medicine but national security as well.
