Hmmm...

I'd say more like the Republican's Eric Dickerson. Good in his first home - a disaster once he leaves the city.

No. Giuliani isn't a dork.

In fact, an exit poll question from Pew in 2004 revealed that only 3% of voters named abortion as their top voting issue, 2% named religiosity, and 2% named gay marriage.

Unsurprising given that Newt's Contract with America didn't even mention any of those issues. And that it's doubtful a president or the Supreme Court is going to do away with abortion.

From the article:

Indeed, in one recent poll, majorities of Republicans who were informed of Giuliani’s views on social issues said that they were either minor issues or no issues at all; only 16% said that they wouldn't vote for him after being informed of these views. In the online GOP Bloggers poll, Giuliani is consistently one of the few candidates to end up with a net positive acceptability rating. These internet denizens are well-informed, and overwhelmingly self-describe as conservative (78% self-describe as 7 or higher on a 10-scale of conservatism). If these people can support Rudy, anyone can.

He's more like a Republican Heath Schuler (in the sense that he was great in college but choked up in the NFL), except that the actual Schuler, now a Democrat Congressman from North Carolina, is far to the right of the supposedly "Republican" Giuliani.

Rudy Giuliani is the only person who could attack Hillary! from the left on abortion and gun control. Great candidate!

I'd say he's more like Reggie Bush . . . a great, talented player at one level, but one of the most over-hyped and overrated #1 picks in recent memory.

What a stupid article. What a silly comparison. Manning plays football. Rudy is in politics.

Good point. A Rudy vs. Hillary match-up in 2008 would be a "neo-con" wet dream -- a contest between two liberal, big-government globalists whose administrations would be nearly identical.
