I dislike both of them... but Giuliani is like the spawn of Satan.. Giuliani supporters please check his background before you call another candidate immoral... No one has less morals then this guy.. He will readily screw this country into the ground...

Three marriages and a public affair. Millions earned at his post-9/11 consulting business from some questionable clients.... Also he may have forgotten to mention that when a woman who lost her husband came to claim the money he refused it and kept it for himself.. His disgraced former police commissioner and ex-business partner Bernard Kerik.

Critics are questioning credit the mayor is taking for reducing the city's crime rate. And his 9/11 credentials, which revived his political fortunes, are being challenged by a group that also emerged from the tragedy with a hero's sheen: firefighters.

And the firefighters, who blame Giuliani for outdated radios that failed on 9/11 and for suspending the search at ground zero when they say 242 firefighters were still missing, haven't been alone in questioning the former mayor's leadership. Though the federal 9/11 commission treated Giuliani with kid gloves during its hearings, it concluded that he had failed to get the police and fire departments to cooperate before the attacks and hadn't resolved a decade-old problem with firefighters' radios.

In their 2006 book, Grand Illusion, authors Wayne Barrett and Dan Collins also fault the mayor for moving the city's emergency command center to the 23rd floor of 7 World Trade Center in 1998. It put the center in a building that was part of the twin tower complex, which terrorists had attacked five years earlier. "He had prepared the city? Handled the aftermath? Fallacy," Barrett says.

the lack of radio contact led directly to the deaths of 121 of their comrades—a total of 343 firefighters perished that day—who never received two evacuation orders before the North Tower collapsed. "[Giuliani's] attempt to be president of the United States is based solely on this urban legend, this myth of leadership on 9/11," says the union's general president, Harold Schaitberger.

some victims' family members aren't giving up. As Rudy Giuliani makes his run for the presidency, members of a group called Sept. 11 Firefighters and Families for Truth are protesting at campaign events around New York. They're echoing the earlier beefs and arguing that the city was not well prepared to deal with a terrorist attack. In regard to 9/11, they say, Giuliani was no hero.

Crappy choice but it would be Clinton. Rudy has hand NO FEDERAL experience and only a few days of glory in 2001. New Yorkers don't think much of Giuliani either. The ones I've talked to thought he was a terrible mayor except for the public personna on 9/11.

I would definitely vote for Hillary. Giuliani has a daughter
that is for Obama. So if he gets the nomination it would be hypocritical of him to have her on the campaign trail

At least Hillary knows she can depend on Chelsea to get her the young vote. Of the whole Clinton gang, Chelsea is by far the brightest one of all.

Giuliani has a better track record at getting things done for one thing. Also he has proven himself worthy by.
1.showing all of us how well he performs under extreme conditions of crisis.
2. By not asking that the New York city elections that were coming up be suspended by 6 month which he could have done, because the city was in crisis due to the Sept 11 attacks.
3. Do we really want a woman that had to move to another state so she could get elected to the Senate for President. You know she moved to NYC to run for the Senate because the people of Arkansas knew her past far to well and would not have voted her into the Senate.

diogenes- yes he floated the Idea which was the correct way to go about it. Which is why he never did ask the powers that have the authority to suspend the election to do so. Unlike most others politicians who would have made that move with out testing the idea in popular opinion. This is what I get for giving people credit for having intelligence

For those outside of NY who favor Giuliani, listen to what many New Yorkers (NYC and upstate) think about him. It might change your mind.

And "Lord-he-ain't....": Your second point is exactly, 100%, 180 degrees wrong. In 2001, it was Giuliani who floated the idea of postponing the election, and he was shot down within hours by every lawyer and every politician in NY.

Giuliani's fingerprints are all over 9/11/2001.

Why was the steel so quickly removed from the crime scene?
Why is Giuliani using 9/11 for political gain?

I'd not vote for either candidate, but I think that Hillary will win.
