Some Republican conservatives have been threatening to back a third-party candidate for President next year if Rudy Giuliani wins the GOP nomination. Yet the sometimes-liberal former New York City mayor continues to run at or near the top of polls of Republican voters. When do parties reach outside the box for candidates? Do they define the people they nominate--or can a candidate change his party...
...were to win the Republican nomination, he and a contingent of influential evangelicals would consider encouraging a man (inevitably) of better faith and adherence to the Gospels to run under the auspices of a third party. In spite of this group’s crucifix-rattling, Mr. Giuliani remains the Republican party frontrunner even in the South and even among the most devout Protestant conservatives just months before the beginning primary voting...

She rejects all questions involving hypothetical situations, and refuses to offer specifics on how she would make social security financially solvent. Romney has shifted his opinion on abortion, gay marriage and everything in between. When asked why his sons were not serving in the armed forces, he responded that they were helping their country by campaigning for him. Giuliani has tried to bolster...
