Ya think?
They purged the Giuliani kool-aid drinkers. I wonder how long til the McCain purge.
Giuliani was not a liberal. He really had no strong positions at all on any social issue; that’s not the kind of politics he practiced.
Giuliani was a strict law-and-order conservative - that, and not his social policies, are what attracted his constituency. I grant that it is difficult to understand exactly how conservative he was unless you had lived in New York City before and during his terms as mayor. His record, however, speaks for itself - he turned Sodom and Gomorrah (Times Square, previously porn/illicit sex capital of the world) into a vibrant, economic Disneyland. If that’s not what a conservative would want his politicians to do, I don’t know what is. He had no lack of faults but his record of actual accomplishment matches up favorably against anyone.
His constituency belongs in our coalition, and there are enough of them to make a big difference. On the economy and the rule of law their interests are ours.
