I doubt it. Given a choice between John Edwards and a guy like Rudy Giuliani, I'd probably pull the lever for Edwards myself. All other things would be equal, and Edwards would probably have better trade policy than Giuliani...and his personal life isn't a wreck.

As far as the "strong on defense" myth that surrounds Rudy, I don't trust a guy who called for more "gun control" as a response to the Empire State terrorist attack to guard the safety of the nation for one minute.
