Republicans leaning pro-choice & pro-gay rights in 2008

"Former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani is the most popular person in national politics, according to a national poll released Monday by Quinnipiac University". Among Republicans, Giuliani, who is adamantly pro-choice and pro gay rights, is leading his nearest challenger, John McCain, 33% to 25%. Republicans-the party of principles. As long as they don't always have to abide by them... But you damn well better! If the Republican party can move that far to the center in 2008, this country just might be able to rebound from the previous 8 years - even if another Republican was elected. Maybe...it took Clinton four years to clean up after Reagan's and Bush Daddy's 12 consecutive years of fiscal irresponsibility....After Dubya, we may never be able to climb out of his mess... But, seeing Republicans leaning toward a pro-choice (albeit, basically just another Republican criminal in a little more expensive suit), candidate like Giuliani gives progressives a little hope that at least some on the 'right' are clear thinkers when it comes to basic individual rights.
