You can almost guarantee that Rudy Giuliani never had any idea that his appointee as police chief while mayor of New York City would haunt him for the rest of his life, but that seems to be the case with Bernard Kerik. Now that Kerik has been indicted, you might expect a bit of a dip in Rudy's poll numbers.  I think it will be hard for some right wing conservatives to stand behind a man like Giuliani who once stood with a man like Kerik. I guess we'll see soon enough. WHITE PLAINS, N.Y... Read Full Story

New York City firefighters continue to hound Rudy Giuliani on the campaign trail in Florida for what they call the "9/11 Myth" -- this time using a 16-foot inflatable rat to make their point.

Speaking at the NRA yesterday, Rudy Giuliani said that the MoveOn ad smearing General Petraeus "passed a line that we should not allow American political organizations to pass": Whether you agree with the war in Iraq or you don't; whether you agree with the surge or you don't; Democrats even came back from Iraq and said that he's having more success than anybody had thought. So to attack the man's integrity, and honesty, and decency, is in my view indecent. It passed a line that we should... Read Full Story
