My fav Repub candidate Duncan Hunter is not going to happen so my picks are between Romney, Giuliani, and Thompson. I can't stand that phoney bribe taking hypocrite John McCain nor that faux conservative Huckabee. I love Ron Paul on domestic issues but he sucks on foreign policy.

I'm not sure I can trust Romney or Giuliani to be a conservative but between the two I'm leaning towards Romney although I'm worried about his mormanism causing some Repubs to stay at home and give the white house to that socialist nitwit Hillary. I want to like Fred Thompson but he voted for the unconstiutional McCain-Feingold so that alone should disqualify him from office.... As for Rudy, I thought he abused his power as a federal prosecutor in the Milken case threatening indict Milken's brother to get Michael Milken to take a plea deal. Rudy is no civil libertarian and he pushed the law to its breaking point to coerce Michael Milken in taking a plea deal.... Milken also push the laws to the edges but I would argue he stayed on the right side of the law during his "Junk Bond King" days. I can't say the same thing about Rudy.... Rudy and Michael Milken have much in common except Rudy was better able to reinvent himself when he became mayor of New York..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milken
"The government's tactics during the investigation have been much criticized. At the behest of Attorney General Dick Thornburgh, Giuliani threatened to indict Milken's brother, Lowell (a lawyer for Drexel) for racketeering when Milken initially balked at pleading guilty. As part of the deal, the case against Lowell was dropped. Federal investigators also questioned some of Milken's relatives--including his aging father--about their investments."

I don't know who is the lesser of three evils.... Rudy will CRUSH Hillary heads-up. Thompson will also beat Hillary heads-up. I'm not so sure about Romney. One thing is certain, there are no Reagans in this line-up.
