I'll take character over charisma any day.

Also, how is Rudy going to handle religion in the election? Last I checked, he's an excommunicated Catholic (twice-divorced, pro-abortion.)

I think I will puke if I see one more pro-Rudy, McLame, article on this website.

They both are anti-gun, pro-abortion, and pro-queer.
Sell this drivel on DU.
No Republican could ever hope to win by embracing the platform of the far left. Hell, just add socialized medicine and higher taxes and that just about covers their program!

To the best of my recollection, his first marriage was annulled.

I think his credentials-as a Roman Catholic politician-are a lot better than you're willing to concede.

Granted, he's no Sam Brownback or Frank Keating, but he was the most prominent elected official to denounce the reprehensible, bigoted "Sensation" exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum.

He also had a collegial relationship with the late Cardinal John O'Conner, among other high-ranking officals in this city's archdiocese.

Didn't seem to hurt Kerry much. And, as for character, Rudy has far more of it than most other politicians.
