More Giuliani Pimping, This Time From Catholic-Con The Anchoress

All you babies are gonna be wearin' Giuliani-plated diapers.

Difficult times demand of us difficult choices. From where I sit, it doesn’t appear that endorsing someone who strictly adheres to orthodox Catholicism will necessarily get the job done that needs to be done, to defeat the larger and more ominous forces that are threatening our nation, Western Civilization and, yes, our faith. Can you show me the conservative Christian/Catholic candidate who is electable (yes, that matters) and who would take a strong enough stand in favor or America, and in opposition to appeasement? The ideal does not exist.

...

We know this man, Giuliani, and he is a man-in-full. I would rather have one faulty, imperfect man-in-full in office, (one who is willing to be unpopular, if that’s what it takes) and dealing with our devils, than a dozen “more perfect and palatable� types who either can’t get elected or are too distracted by the demands of “the base� to do what needs doing.

Again, all of my Giuliani support is premised upon the assumption he is not a moron, and will walk back several very liberal cats as he "has a conversation with the people of America" on a, I don't know, "listening tour" or something.

If he doesn't, well, he's cooked, and this is all just a lot of nonsense.

But I think he will. If John Kerry can vote for the deaths of American servicemen in a war he is viscerally (secretly) opposed to in order to preserve his electability, I think Rudy Giuliani can manage to "evolve" in his position on partial-birth abortion, the constitutionality and constitutional necessity of Roe v. Wade, and gay marriage.

Via Heh.
