[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Let's see how he plays in South Carolina and Texas.

Rudy has a network in Texas & the South has warmly received him.

Yeah,(to borrow a Nixonism:) "Rudy plays well in Raleigh." That wasn't because of the South's natural affinity to New Yawkers, it was because Rudy has done his homework and cultivated what counts in Dixie. I'd say his showing so far has exceeded expectations.

Rudy would be a shoo in in Texas. He'd get a lot of the independent vote during the primary also, since we don't have party affiliation here until after the primary.

Most Texans have security as their #1 issue. Rudy was loved at the National convention and he'll do in Hillary. No one else can beat the Hillary/Obama Osama team.

I'm not sure how Giuliani can get the base to support him, other than to ignore the issues which are important to them. He can gather lots of money from his rich friends, he can pound his chest about being "America's Mayor"... and the NYT and WP and all of that crowd can applaud his "moderation". Why not vote for a moderate on tax cuts? We have John McCain for that. Why are tax cuts and support for the "war on terror" not negotiable? Oh, even the thought is heresy!
