Frm a recent article about Rudy posted here:
Nor is former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani any better. Although he seems tough on terrorism and crime—both of which should be a matter of course for any Republican, not cause for surprise—he is as Liberal as it gets on almost every other issue. Giuliani is pro-abortion—a deal-breaker for most Conservatives—and anti-gun, citing gun control instead of aggressive prosecution of criminals as the reason for the drop in crime during his tenure. His stance on gay “marriage” is ambiguous at best, and he once sued the federal government when he was blocked from prosecuting city employees who helped the INS catch illegal immigrants. Giuliani claims to favor originalist judges like Supreme Court Justices Scalia and Thomas, but the record shows that he appointed Liberal Democrats to judicial positions by a factor of eight to one.
One note about the judges he appointed: he was limited in choice by what candidates were available (there was a list, I think), and by having to get approval for 'em.
I still ain't votin' for Rudy unless someone gives me a much better reason that "he's electable."
