Right but that's not the main difference. The main difference is that Reagan's remarriage occurred in 1952. He was elected President in 1980. So the event occurred some 28 years previous. So it was hardly a event in voter's minds.
Guiliani's is a recent messy divorce just a few years ago. And Guiliani has been married 3 times. So he has much more baggage to overcome than Reagan in this area ... plus he is not a Ronald Reagan.
No he's not a Ronald Reagan...He's a Rudy Guiliani, knighted by Queen Elizabeth and loved all over the world. He also has his merits, as does President Bush. Let's not be like the Democrats with an image that is forever held over potential leaders...In their case, their 3-year President JFK. Ronald Reagan was unique...as they all are.
