You are in dreamland about Rudy! What a nice fairytale....Geez, he had at least 2 affairs while still married....with children. This will hurt his chances, and frankly, I don't want another guy like this in the White House.

I'm pretty torn up about this too, as I love Rudy the politician, but Rudy the husband doesn't look as promising as president (though he did recently marry his lover). But don't you think that post-Slick, the bar has been lowered about as low as you can possibly go on morality issues? I guess the reason I'm finding myself splitting hairs like this is that I'm convinced that Rudy is the best candidate to easily beat Hillary in '08 even with his sometimes moderate social views. His fiscal views and tough-on-crime stands should make him pretty popular with indepedents and conservatives alike. He put away a lot of mobsters in NY in the 70s when he was a prosecutor and remember his brave leadership during 9/11? The other prospective GOP candidates mentioned just don't seem to have the "gravitas" to me (although a lot can happen in 4 years!).
