Associated Press - May 17, 2007 9:03 PM ET

An evangelical Christian leader says he won't vote for Rudy Giuliani if the former New York mayor wins the Republican presidential nomination.

In an online column for WorldNetDaily, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson calls Guiliani an "unapologetic supporter of abortion on demand" and domestic-partnership benefits. Dobson adds that there are other "moral concerns" with Giuliani, including that he's on his third marriage to "his mistress" from his second marriage and "appears not to have remorse for cheating on his wife."

Dobson said he was speaking as a private citizen, but his words carry considerable weight with the some seven million listeners to his radio broadcasts.

Dobson previously said he won't back John McCain because of the Arizona senator's sponsorship of campaign finance reform and opposition to a constitutional ban on gay marriage.

Focus on the Family founder says he won't vote for Giuliani

He'll vote for whoever the RP puts in front of his party over principle ass. He'd vote for Hillary, Saddam Hussein, or Ossama bin Laden if they ran for office with a "R" behind their name.

This is about the GOP primaries, not the general election.

I beg your pardon, but this (Dobson's claim) is about the general election.

This is meant to signal his strong opposition to Giuliani. It's a lot stronger than saying that he won't support him during the primaries. The statement is meant to prevent Giuliani from winning the nomination.

You may be right about this being the reason why he is saying it at this time, but after rereading the article I still come away with the notion that he was speaking about the general election.

In the end, I believe he will vote for whomever wins the RP primaries.

Obviously, he was speaking about that but the end result would be to give Giuliani trouble winning his party's nomination. He may have to write off the 'bible belt' states if Dobson maintains his opposition and states it loudly and often.

If Giuliani wins the GOP nomination, it is likely that the vast majority of his delegates would come from 'blue states'. It would be actually interesting to watch a GOP convention where the candidate with the most delegates had them coming from states that the GOP could not hope to win in the general election. Now, THAT would be a nice spectacle because the MSM would probably notice the anomaly and would endlessly question the delegates on the topic because there are very few interesting events at these scripted shows.

Well I hope it works. Out of all the candidates running, both D and R, I believe the Giuliani is the most dangerous for the country.

Indeed, Giuliani would provide a rather smooth slide down the totalitarian slope. But, let's not forget that we may very well have a contest where Giuliani represented the GOP, Hillary were the selected Demo and Bloomberg was sitting right in the middle. All three Godless, amoral, fish-eyed totalitarians.

That would be a nice a la carte menu for the American voters to make.

I have lost all faith in the American people. Out of the above three, I think the American people would vote for the one promising them the most goodies. Except the the party ideologues of course. They are going to vote for their party's regardless of who the candidates are.
