It's political shpiel time!
I'm a dyed-in-the-wool liberal. I like social services and civil liberties up the wazoo (does that sound dirty?), and while I may never leave the Democratic nation of the Northeast ever again if Hillary doesn't win the election, I can't help but read every silly thing I see about Rudy Giuliani.
The thing about this flip-flopping, sometimes fan of the Red Sox and abortion rights, is that he started off almost electable, and he may still be. He's a compassionate tough guy with his foibles. He doesn't like crime or people dying, and he's a big fan of clean cabs and hot dog stands. But in speaking his mind (a good thing, right?), he continues to say stupid shit. Supporting the disgraced former police commissioner? Ends justify the means, loyalty, blah blah blah: The guy stole taxpayers money. And Republicans hate taxes.
He is so noncommital. That's supposed to be a bad thing when running for office, no? So while he's too liberal for the Republicans to like him, and the Dems find him too brash and head-busting, he keeps all of our attention. Well played, Rudy, well played.
