Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani, the former national GOP front-runner, is in third place in polls of Florida voters. Giuliani has performed miserably in all the caucuses and primary elections thus far because he's completely ignored all of them while pinning all his hopes on Florida, a state he calls "crucial" to his chances.
What a stupid move. You need momentum going into Florida. You can't expect to win after such poor showings in every state whose voice has already been heard.
Don't get me wrong: I'm not feeling sorry for the man. Were it not for McCain's desire to make permanent Bush's miserable tax cuts for the rich...and were it not for Huckabee's frightening bible-thumping...and were it not for Romney's homophobia, I'd say Giuliani is about the most disgusting nominee the GOP could come up with.
Truth be told, Giuliani seems to be the least politically offensive of the GOP hopefuls. If it has to be a Republican in the White House (and I really don't see much chance of that), I'd much rather have it be someone of his political leanings. Personally, however, he just grosses me out.
The last thing we need is another fear-monger in the big chair. And his campaign has been all about fear. Telling Americans to vote for him because if he's not president, there will be another domestic terrorist attack... That's just shameful. And using images from 9/11 in his television ads should be enough to make any self-respecting Republican switch party affiliations. Some things should be sacred (like 9/11 and the Constitution).
Bye-bye, Rudy.
