You and I seldom disagree, but this is one of those times. Once a president is elected, his base does not matter as long as he can keep his public opinion numbers up high enough to win reelection. Rudy knows that if he is elected that nobody will fight him for the nomination in 2012, and if he pleases the left he will sail to reelection.
