For 50 days, Giuliani had the Sunshine State nearly to himself........he’s sucked up to Miami's Cuban vote, pandered in Cape Canaveral about the space program, tried to scare retirees in South Florida. There he is riding in a fire truck in a Miami parade, trailed by angry firefighters who blame him for multiple failures when NY was attacked.......in the Panhandle, he's the consummate Yankees fan trying to look down-home on the Redneck Riviera.
Yet, the more they see of Giuliani, the more his poll numbers tank...... Rudy’s campaign is in meltdown. Amazing how much voters bring up his tawdry personal life. They laugh about Rudy in drag and Rudy when he lived with a gay couple.....in a state full of mothers who live for phone calls from long-distance adult children, there’s one thing they can’t abide – Rudy’s wreck of a family life......people roll their eyes over the story of how Giuliani’s third wife picked him up in a cigar bar while he was still married to the second Mrs. Hizzoner.
I heard no end of condemnation over the mayor’s estrangement from his two children. He spent more than anyone but Mitt Romney in NH, and finished a distant fourth. And as Michael Powell and Russ Buettner documented in a remarkable piece in the Times earlier this week, Giuliani ruled by crushing anyone who dared to cross him.

the MSM piling hatred on Rudy makes one think that they also feared him
Yes, they do because he's the strongest fiscal conservative of the bunch.
Excuse me? Rudy a fiscal conservative?
The same guy who sued the State of New York in a vain attempt to prevent them from eliminating the commuter tax? The same guy who left behind a projected deficit of nearly 3 billion dollars (before 9/11)?
When exactly did Rudy become this feared fiscal conservative?
Good job to all the STOP Rudy Freepers.
The liberal Giuliani is just about DEAD!
Time to take down the liberal Romney.
too bad it looks like we’ll be stuck with RINO mccain, by default. No way the romulon and his magic underwear will take the nomination...
You mean twits like Mr. Robinson?
I’m glad twits like you were not successful in foisting an immoral, womanizing, liberal Dem on us.
