ABCnews.com reports that several Christian-conservative leaders met over the weekend in Salt Lake City to discuss the upcoming presidential race. Apparently these leaders are extremely nervous because Giuliani may win the Republican nomination for President. The main concern with Giuliani is his apparent pro-abortion stances. During the course of the weekend, it was decided that if Giuliani is nominated for President, the Christian-right would back a third party candidate.
This decision could have many implications. First of all, it could ruin the primary for Guiliani. The Christian-right has played a major role in GOP politics since the Reagan administration. If the Christian-right backs a different candidate, it could sway many voters against Guiliani. Also, if Guiliani does win the nomination, and the Christian-right puts its support behind a third-party candidate, it could spell disaster for the GOP. It is starting to look as if the cards are stacked against the GOP in the 2008 Presidential race.
