Robertson said he decided to endorse Giuliani because he was "a proven leader who is not afraid of what lies ahead and who will cast a hopeful vision for all Americans."
"In all of the crises which confront our nation and the world, we need a leader with a bold vision who is not afraid to tackle the challenges ahead," Robertson said.
Well, that's enough info for me to NOT vote for Rudy. Rudy may be a fearless leader, one who doesn't blanch at the notion that the engine of the economy is greased with the blood of aborted children. Rudy certainly does not fear God. As an accomplished adulterer, I'm not surprised that traditional family values are not his strong suit.
If any politician claiming to be a Roman Catholic could appear to be any less catholic than John Kerry, it would be Rudy Giuliani. Rudy's inconsistent approach to his faith is probably not a problem for Robertson. Romney's out, as Pat probably considers Mitt a pagan, and McCain's just not hawkish enough on apocalyptic conflicts, in addition to being federalist on the issue of same-sex marriage.
So, what does that leave? For Robertson to jump on board the Giuliani Express, my guess is that he thinks Rudy would do anything to defend Israel from Islamist aggression. Anything.
Robertson's previous public remarks have already warranted dismissal, and this time serve as a warning to go a different way.

Your analysis is dead-on.
The "war party" emerges...
Hmmmm...I thought Robertson fancied himself Pro Life.
So it's not just the Democrats who are willing to put aside "firmly held beliefs" in order to gain or keep power.
And the GOP wonders why I'm disenchanted and refuse to give them any money.
You know... I can see supporting Giuliani in the general election over Hillary Clinton, but in the primary when there are so many other pro-life candidates who are just as capable of fighting the War on Terror???
PAT!!! What's up wif yo' head???
