James C. Dobson, a prominent Christian leader, said he would not vote for Republican presidential candidate Rudolph W. Giuliani under any circumstances because Giuliani supported abortion rights and had been married three times.
Dobson, founder of Focus on the Family, a Christian evangelical group based in Colorado Springs, said the former New York mayor was not suited for the White House.
Dobson said he would be willing to sit out the 2008 election if Giuliani was the Republican nominee.
“I will either cast my ballot for an also-ran -- or if worse comes to worst -- not vote in a presidential election for the first time in my adult life,” he said.
