Bush Aides Like What They See In Guiliani
http://www.usnews.com/usnews/news/articles/070212/12giuliani.htm ^

While the White House is taking a hands-off approach to the 2008 GOP presidential primaries so far, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani is quietly seeing an administration cheerleading section grow.

One insider said that it is built on the fact that Giuliani continues to beat Sen. John McCain in the polls and also because he is offering to stick with several Bush programs, including an aggressive stance against terrorists, and promises to name conservative judges to the court. One Bush official today noted Giuliani's pledge to nominate conservative judges and applauded the New Yorker for making that claim in liberal California.

"He didn't back away just because he was in California. In fact, he went there to make that statement. That's a very important signal," said the insider. Interestingly, even White House conservatives are showing support for Giuliani.

"He's the front-runner, and he's doing everything so far very good," said another official. "He isn't bending to what people want to hear. He kind of sounds like Bush did in 2000."

Bush aides have had to deal with McCain for years. I am sure they are happy he is circling the drain.

Reagan appointed Rudy as his #3 man at Department of Justice.

Rudy was pleased to receive the Ronald Reagan Freedom Award.

Of course the Bush Admin likes Rudy. He's pro-amnesty and so are they. Who cares if that will split the GOP?

and I will keep going back to Rudy's own words as I posted so that Rudy can make my point for me.....

......the man was a great NYC Mayor and would be an improvement as a NYS Senator, but his views are to liberal for either POTUS or NY Governor.
