Where will he finally fall on the abortion issue?

I love your question.
Yes, Dr. Guiliani is politicing the hell out of it right now, but it's to be expected. It seems that he's pro-choice personally, but his political base is not. Also, it seems like he doesn't believe that it is a Constitutional issue, but it should be permitted by the law.

I don't see that as flip flopping at all. In fact he has stated my own beliefs. I know it is hard for some who see the world in black and white, right or wrong, my way or the highway to understand this but here goes. We are personally against abortion but we also believe it is not up to us to decide for someone else what she is going to do. You cannot legislate morality. Did we learn nothing from prohibition? Giuliani is a Catholic and so I would expect his personal belief to be against abortion. He is also smart enough to know that if it is banned that abortions will still happen but they will be in back alleys with coat hangers rather than clean, well lit clinics with medical staff.
So, no Rudy did not do a flip flop on the abortion issue. This is probably how he has believed all along and hasn't made the black and whiters understand. Simple minds are often the toughest to get through to because of the complexity of an idea.

Guiliani doesn't have a PHD, but Ron Paul is a doctor. And he's never flip flopped on an important issue.
I was semi pro-abortion before, but I've flip-flopped as my wife is pregnant right now, and I question it after a certain time/stage.
You should be allowed to flip-flop if you are presented more evidence, instead of being stubborn, and not admitting you are wrong. I admire McCain more than Rudy however.

Hillary Clinton was Valedictorian and Jon Kerry was salutatorian of that class. Both also received Honor's in Deception 101, as well as socialism studies.
Guiliani dropped out of the class when he failed to follow the basic ideology of true flip floppery and never received the PHD. sorry.

One would think so. He's already trying the Potomac two step. As far as where he will fall on the abortion issue, only time will tell, because I don't think even he knows.

Ruby is the last thing America needs in the White House. Boy will the Muslim extremists really hate us then, putting a cross-dresser in as our leader. Talk about instant attack!

Giuliani would take any position as long as he could paste the stale and meaningless phrase "strict constructionist" over it -- and shuck off responsibility to a judge.

I think he was pretty forthcoming in the debate. He is not an advocate of abortion, but, simply supports a womans right to choose. Did you watch it?
