I haven't been following this Free Republic situation, but, apparently, Free Republic members sympathetic to the Rudy Giuliani candidacy have been banned from the site. The New York Observer reports:
Over the past few weeks, chaos has reigned in the "Freeper" community as members sympathetic to the former mayor's candidacy claim to have suffered banishment from the site. They were victimized, they say, by a wave of purges designed to weed out any remaining support for the Giuliani campaign on the popular conservative web forum. Another significant chunk of commenters have migrated away from the controversial site over the action, according to a number of former site members and conservative bloggers who have been tracking the situation.
Mr. Giuliani continues to have problems with the institutional conservative movement. But it's not been enough to end his lead in the polls.
