Probably not. He already blew his chances to correct his past liberal positions. He came out not too long ago and said publicly-funded abortion for poor women is a Constitutional right.

Couple that with his long-time advocacy for national gun control, and it’s obvious this man has no proper understanding of the Constitution.

If you are talking about the same interview I read, that is not what he said. Paraphrasing, what he said was that as long as the Supreme Court holds it to be a constitutional right, he felt it appropriate for govt to step in and assist those who could not afford the service. However, he later made clear he would make no effort to change current laws that prohibit use of federal funds for abortion.

The demagoguery around here on this topic has gotten a bit out of hand. You'd think Rudy were running on a platform that has promoting abortion as its top priority.
