Giuliani is not perfect by any means but he is the only one who can defeat the beast from Arkansas.

Up until a couple months ago, McCain was also in that same league as Rudy now is proclaimed to be alone in.
What changed?
I'll tell you what changed. McCain parted company with the media on his position on the Iraq war, and has taken sides with the President.
Ever since this "change" (there really was none) the media has no use for him on the single biggest issue the media is pimping, and there was no real lovefest between the media or President Bush.
To them, McCain is damaged goods.
That's what's changed.

Still do.
His CFR was the democrats greatest weapon against the GOP in the last election.
