That's the point. He's not Bill Clinton. His performance wasn't staged for a future event. Rudy wasn't thinking about a future run for office. Rudy was thinking about the survivors of 911. It is one of his greatest strengths - he doesn't CARE what people think - he CARES about people. I dare the left to make an issue of his dress. It will have the same backlash Kerry's Vietnam bragfest had. The NASA suit didn't do Kerry in. Kerry did himself in.
You worry about nothing.
He's not Bill Clinton. His performance wasn't staged for a future event.Like that matters? Can you honestly believe, having read posts here at FR for years, that a fair number of social conservatives will NOT have an issue with Rudy appearing in drag before a gay group?
