>>Merely an opinion. I think Rudy handled himself well during 9/11 and understands the threat. How that translates into foreign policy is only a guess at this point. Not a Rudy fan but I do believe there are those who are hanging on to the Rudy wagon until a more conservative one comes along.<<
He did a good job on 9/11 by all accounts. New Orleans would have likely been much better off if Rudy had been mayor instead of Nagin.
But the mayors don’t set Federal policy. If Rudy had no other problems, his policies still would not be conservative. And he does have other problems, like the guy he almost got in as Homeland Security chief.
Rudy has all kinds of other problems, I agree. And on the Security Chief deal, that was way too close for comfort.
