In the name recognition contest, Guiliani wins.

However, I have concerns about his personal life being dragged into the mix.

What good does it do us with name recognition if the name has scandals attached to it?

I am willing to forgive Guiliani for his marital problems, and think he would be a great president. I am not sure your average voter would think the same way.

Hard,if not impossible to argue with what you say but who else if not Rudy?

So far as I can recall Rudy's "scandals" all involve his wife's betrayals of him, not the other way around.  IIRC how does other people betraying him, yet he still doing his job and seeing a large portion of our country through one of our greatest traumas, hurt him?  I know it won't be portrayed that way, but that's how I recall the pre-911 hit on Rudy.
