At 50 Days After. This week's torchlight post is Giuliani vs. Clinton: The Lesser of Two Evils by Richard at eyehackerblog, if for no other reason, then so I can take the occasion to disagree with his conclusion to pull the lever for Rudy because:
1.) It is not clear that Rudy Giuliani will do things like appoint judges who will make decisions aligned to the pro-life perspective, and
2.) Not having a pro-life candidate at the top of the GOP ticket will set the pro-life movement politically backwards by marginalizing it--I've seen how the party platform effectively becomes what the candidate wants it to be, regardless of what planks may get adopted in some side room.
I think, considering the alternatives this year (and I admit I would have voted for Brownback), Ron Paul will make things interesting for pro-life voters if he can pick up just a little more support and coverage in the next 3-4 months.
