As much as Giuliani would like to minimize the differences between us, he can&#8217;t minimize the fact that he will not be the advocate for life that Bush has been.  All of Bush&#8217;s actions have been guided by the principle that life begins at conception and that will be something we will sorely miss when embryonic stem cell research is funded by the federal government during a Giuliani presidency.  Not to mention federal funding of abortions.<br \/>\nWe should be shouting it from the rooftops and telling every single Christian we know that it&#8217;s not just about the judges because that is only half the battle.
