The evangalical Christian right is hardening against Rudy Giuliani's Republican presidential bid. Tony Perkins, the president of the Family Research Council - one of the most powerful and prominent evangelical groups - spells it out to the Christian Broadcast Network:
There is absolutely no way that we will go with a candidate that is pro-abortion.... Do you really think they [conservative activists] would go to work for a Giuliani-led campaign? It's an unreasonable request for the GOP to ask these people to invest their time and energy into it. Giuliani becomes a drag on the party because social conservatives won't work for him. I think you can see a landslide with Giuliani at the head of the ticket.
