Speaking on MSNBC’s "Morning Joe," former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani praised Newt Gingrich and criticised Mitt Romney as a flip-floppoer.
“I’ve never seen a guy change his positions on so many things, so fast, on a dime, on everything,” Giuliani said about the former Massachusetts governor. “Pro-choice, pro-life. And pro-choice because somebody, a close friend, died, and he became pro-choice because this woman died of an abortion. Then he figures out there are embryos and he changes.
“Then he was pro-gun control,” Giuliani opined. “Fine. Then he becomes a lifetime member of the NRA. Then he was pro-cap-and-trade. Now he’s against cap-and-trade. He was pro-mandate for the whole country, then he becomes anti-mandate and he takes that page out of his book and republishes the book. I could go on and on.”

Oh, my. Must be a cold day in hell. Rudy sticks it to Romney!!
Go, Newt!!
Hey, I agree with Rudy for once!
This primary contest is like an Ali-Frazier fight.
Rudy is not conservative on the social side, but he is ALWAYS intellectually honest. Calls them like he sees them.
Giuliani concluded that Romney was a "man that will say anything to become president of the United States.”Meanwhile, the 9/11 icon likened Gingrich to Ronald Reagan.
“I kind of go back to 1980 and I remember the Carter White House just dying [to run against] Ronald Reagan,” Giuliani said. “Ronald Reagan was the dumb actor, Ronald Reagan said incendiary things, Ronald Reagan was like Newt — gosh, you never knew what he was going to say and the whole world would go crazy — The New York Times would write editorials. There was Bush, greatest resume of anyone who ever ran for president, solid citizen. They got Reagan and they got trounced.”
That should liven the debate.
Whoa, who’d have thunk it? Thanks Mr. Mayor!
Like him or lump him, Giuliani has more integrity in his little finger than Romney has in his entire body.
In 2008 I made the point that all of the GOP guys would enjoy going up to the hunting lodge together for a man’s weekend, McCain, Hunter, Thompson, Huckabee, Giuliani, for drinks and man talk, but that they would not invite Mitt if the public and media would never know.
Never been an admirer of Rudy’s politics, but I’ve never thought of him as dishonest. Always seemed to be a stand up guy I simply disagreed with.
Wow
Okie. I love Rudy. But to say he has integrity. LOL.
Hey.... didnt we hate Giulianii 4 years ago?
( I guess even he got tired of the anti Newt hit pieces about Newt and Reagan)
