durasell is totaly correct about the two guys. They were good friends of Rudy during his divorce - he was leaving Gracie Mansion and needed some place to stay before he got his house.
...he could have stayed with his girlfriend, but that wouldn't have gone over very well.
I think Freeperfromnj was saying that he or she did not know that McCain called the Swift Boat Veterans liars.
If Freeperfromnj was actually saying that he or she would lose respect for Giuliani for staying in the home of someone who was gay...that kind of attitude would be seen by most Republicans as so "off" that it would only help Giuliani in the primaries.
