Almost forgot, I voted for Guiliani because I think he really is their best chance to win and I'm banking on them knowing that. He wouldn't be my choice though.

On a related note, however, it's amazing just how fast Fred Thompson has gone from GOP savior to comic relief.

What he said.

Big national poll leads don't mean a whole lot with the primary/caucus system. Despite Giuliani's comfortable national lead, Romney is right there in Iowa and a little ahead in NH last time I checked.

When it comes time for christian conservative GOP voters to cast their votes -- and they make up a disproportionately large % of voters in caucus and primary races -- I just don't think they will end up going for the guy that divorces women and sleeps on gay mens' couches.

The problems that more traditional conservatives like Brownback and Huckabee are having in this race are twofold and related -- poor fundraising and too little campaign infrastructure.

Romney is probably the one guy the Republicans could nominate that might get me to vote for Hillary.

I actually like Romney the best. It's just his flip-flopping keeps him from winning me over.
