The SOB campaigned for months, spending millions of dollars. The GOP poured tens of thousands of dollars into campaign materials to support him. When his personal and city scandals were exposed and he was flaming out in the polls (showing that he would be soundly defeated by Hillary) he suddenly came down with cancer--treatment for which doctors said should not keep him from running. Despite that, Rudy dropped out just 11 days before the convention in which he was to be nominated as the GOP candidate for Senate. Lazio was the only alternative at the time.
Why folks think this scandal-ridden liberal has any chance of beating Hillary is beyond me. She was trouncing him before and she would again.
Precisely!
If Rooty Toot’s cancer was so serious, he should have also relinquished his mayoral duties (these are arguably far more stressful than running for senate).
And why didn’t he run against her last year? Because the BS excuse that he was getting ready to run for president has never stopped any other politician in history.
