That's all he's got. He was born, raised, educated, and has lived his entire life in New York City. Talk about a warped sense of country! Don't make him move NOW!

Yes, and no he doesn't. Just bluster and over the top predictions about what will happen if God forbid a Democrat gets into the White House. Yawn....
If he gets the nomination it's going to get interesting though. The firefighters from New York will campaign hard against him and bring to light all the criticisms they have toward him over 9/11. They don't quite see him as the hero of 9/11 like so many others who don't know better. The bad news is that who doesn't respect the opinions of firefighters, and the first responders from 9/11? Rudy better be careful, he's going to get tangled up in his own web.

No because he's a liberal Republican, but doesn't want to blow away his conservative constituency. Then again keeping America safe should be a presidents major platform. The first reason the states (who were countries at one time) united into a federal government and became states was to protect their selves from Briton, France, Spain, and any other foreign government. So why shouldn't the role of the federal government be the same? So, then he is on the right platform isn't he? Pointing out his ability to do that, when he was faced with it.

Why doesn’t he explain what he was doing from 1991 (the first attack) until 9/11/2001 to make NYC and America safer? Oh, that’s right, he spent the decade chasing babes and getting jobs for his criminal buddies.
Oh, well, maybe he should just stick with the fact that he just happened to be mayor when it happened and did nothing more than any other person would have done in the same circumstances.

he's named Mr. 9/eleven for the calm management he confirmed for the duration of that factor. learn that to the finger pointing and hysteria coming from Mayor Nagle in 2005--they are not calling him Mr. Katrina. As for the call to place emergency coordination in bldg 7--no one did, or could have, envisioned the huge injury that replaced into led to on 9/eleven. in case you think of a president, or any considerable chief, attends each assembly of each thing that falls below their area of duty, you're naive as to how representative government works. I even have not desperate who gets my vote, yet i'll base on my decision on greater desirable than a single subject or adventure. i desire you do an identical.

If it wasnt for 9/11 he would be one of the most hated mayors in NY. He did more then hard to the city.

Ask the FDNY what they feel about Rudy.
Ask the neglected first responders to 9/11 what they feel about Rudy.
The myth of him as "America's Mayor" didn't start in NY. It started in the bowels of Washington's corporate contolled media septic tanks.

Nope. And neither do any of his fellow candidates.
They all believe there is an abortion epidemic going on, and that Democrats are still trying to steal away their rights to shoot each other in the foot. :0)

If Guliani was a democrat, they would have blamed him for allowing his city to get attacked and for having his fire and police forces unprepared to rescue all the people from the big buildings.
He showed fantastic leadership, without a doubt, but there is no way that Fox News, Rush, and the neo-con squawkers would have given him an ounce of credit if he was dem.

The fact he kept the city going, pulling the people together and rally around the rescuers is pretty big feather in his hat. Just think, if Mayor Nagin of New Orleans showed half as much common sense, all those people would not have died from Katrina!!!
Ruby is capitalizing on his positives, but has a lot of work to do on his campaign before people will vote for him. Many people are looking for a candidate with traditional family values, controls on abortion and anti gun control. Rudy still flip flopping on these issues.
