the problem with him is that he has a dirty past, which will bite him in the ass if the smear campaigns roll out.

He won't win. People, 7/11 aside, haven't forgotten what a shitty mayor he was.

I read the news and heard he's only "testing the waters" so far. He can do like a "mock" campaign but doesn't have to declare running for presidency until he's certain.

I was on a homeland security trade mission this past summer to Israel. With us was a former staffer for Giuliani. I asked him if Giuliani might make a presidential run in 08. In his words most likely not because there are "too many skeletons". He did not elaborate further.
On another note, I like it went Rudy is the guest host on SNL. He's actually a pretty funny guy.

While I think that being the mayor of New York is as trying and difficult of a job as being governor of most (maybe all) states, the jump from a mayorality to the presidency is a pretty long one.
Recently, that road has led through state capitol buildings. I don't know if that's good or bad.

Exactly what was the amazing thing that Giuliani did during 9/11? In his position, any mayor (except Ray Nagin, but NOLA is another deck of dysfunctional cards altogether) would have done the same thing.
I would seriously vote for Steve Spurrier as president, though.
