Rudy’s “strategery” appears to have been flawed. He used 9/11 to vault himself into the first tier of candidates but then failed to go beyond that. He did talk a little about tax cuts but he always did return to 9/11. The revelations last month about some of his sleaze really gut shot him and marked the beginning of his political demise.
No question----married Rudy porking his mistress on the public dime and hiding the theft of public services in obscure city agencies did not go over well with voters.
Women say Giuliani's assigning 7 tax-funded NYPD bodyguards/drivers to his girlfriend while his wife was still NYC's First Lady was EVEN WORSE than Rudy's calling a press conference to publicly humiliate the mother of his children by announcing their separation WITHOUT EVEN BOTHERING TO TELL HIS WIFE BEFOREHAND.
Vindictive Giuliani then cut his wife's security detail thus endangering the mother of his childred.
Giuliani's savagery against his family knew no bounds. He then rubbed his family's nose in it, by increasing tax-paid security for his mistress....even though the bimbo had no official duties (unless one calls getting Rudy sexually blized an "official" act.) .
