Rudy's Cooking in Florida (Dick Morris)
The greatest tactical mistake in recent politics — Rudy Giuliani's inexplicable decision to avoid the early primaries — is about to destroy his once-hopeful presidential prospects. That so superb a candidate should be destroyed by the political ignorance of his handlers is truly tragic.
If Rudy finishes third — and he's well behind John McCain — the voters who would have backed him will desert to the Arizona senator in droves all throughout the Super Tuesday states. Giuliani will go the way of Joe Lieberman and Wesley Clark, the two 2004 candidates who eschewed Iowa and New Hampshire.
It is truly sad to see Rudy go down, a genuine American hero, but such are the wages of bad advice!

You would have to wonder why someone would run such a horrible campaign as Rudy. Maybe he just didn't want it bad enough but wanted the notoriety.

As Joe Biden once said of Rudy - he is a noun, a verb and 9/11. The more one came to know Rudy, the less one liked him.

Regardless, America is far better off. He would have been a dangerous and disaterous denoument to eight years of the destruction of our democracy.
Good Riddance to a creep.

Well, he's certainly still the creepiest candidate running - on EITHER side.

The best part of this article is to have a clear indication of who Dick Morris is. Imagine actually believing that Guiliani is a hero and would be good for America.
That's so dial-up!
