The Christian Right, according to this report, is the sole largest voting block, and within the Republican Party makes up about one third of it's voters. In the upcoming election, this could provide for some real instability, becuase the Christian Right have not aligned themselves with one particular candidate. Giuliani is not on par with their social desires, primarily by not being pro-life, and he is the front-runner of the Republican party as of now- however, even if the Christian Right ends up not aligning themselves with a single candidate, Giuliani will still probably end up with half of the third of votes from the conservative Christians becuase he is still on par with them on other issues -such as immigration and terrorism- and if he does not win, someone worse could. I personally think from everything I have heard that they will not actually align themselves with one candidate, but in the end the majority of them will vote for Giuliani, becuase as of now it is looking to be between Giuliani and Clinton, and if Giuliani does not get their votes Clinton will most likely win and she would be worse for their causes than Giuliani would be. Personally, I respect Giuliani for standing by what he believes, becuase he knew what he was risking by being pro-choice in terms of his support from the Christian Right and he did it anyway.
