Brownback: I Could Support Rudy
Disappointing, if true:
More signs of shifts toward Rudy Giuliani in the social conservative camp. Admits fellow presidential contender Sam Brownback, when asked if he could swallow supporting Rudy as the ‘08 nominee: “Oh, I think so. I believe in a big tent party. I believe in a party that binds people together even though we don’t agree on all of the topics, and so I think I could do that.”My Comments:
Brownback then, of course, added: “But I think I’m going to be the nominee and not Rudy Giuliani.”
I suppose that one must demonstrate party loyalty if one is seeking a party's presidential nomination. But, I hope that Sen. Brownback recognizes (and as a candidate is willing to discuss) the implications for the pro-life/pro-family movement should Rudy Giuliani win the Republican nomination.

I don't get the Rudy buzz. Have McCain's fortunes sunk? As much as I detest the man, he would seem to have more to offer the various wings of the Republican party.
Brownback is a pro-life conservative, but that doesn't mean that he's not a politician. He's going to say things we don't like.
If one could be elected by being a straight-talking purist like us, Alan Keyes would president.
