A person that would break thier vows in one of the most sacred ceremonies held before God and the community should never be trusted in a high position of power. Giuliani, McCain, Gingrich are all tainted by thier lies. "Till death do us part" indeed. Go Duncan Hunter! Actually, I am a bit of a Duncan Hunter fan myself. I would rank Giuliani, McCain, and Gingrich as such:

McCain: Unacceptable (at least against other Republican candidates--almost every democrat is even worse), totally unprincipled whore who tried to ride his Washington Press Corp constituency to the White House by gratuitously bashing his own party.

Rudy: Objectionable on Policy Grounds, and while more liberal than McCain at his core, he has never gone out of his way to gratuitously bash the party base or its platform. In the respect he is the quintissential "big tent" republican. I could even see fit to minimize the significance of his social policy views if I were to be convinced that he supports the appointment of originalist judges who leave these matters the Constituiton is silent on to the People, rather than impossing through Judicial Fiat. I would have far less trouble with someone who supports abortion rights as a matter of POLICY, while recognizing that it is not a CONSTITUTIONAL Issue for the courts to impose on us one way or the other.

Gingrich: God, how I wish each and every word that comes out of his mouth were coming out of someone else's, someone less tainted, and who I have more faith in the overall character of. I think Newt is still one of the best idea men in the game. I think like Clinton he has demonstrated in the past (and I am open to being convinced he has changed...but it is an uphill path) some issues with his judgement and character that I find offputting in an elected leader. Maybe if we were to put Newt's ideas into Rudy!
