And this guy is the RNC's anointed candidate?
There are two reasons he'll probably wind up the Republican candidate. First, he's the only nationally-known name, although what he's known for is a disaster. Curiously, he seems to have gotten more out of September 11 than George Bush.
Second, the RNC seems to be defending him against an early attack. Michael Moore's movie Sicko involves Moore taking some of the first responders, suffering from the lung diseases that Giuliani denied would occur, to Cuba for treatment. Why on earth would the Republicans seek to prosecute Moore for this so-called treason, especially when it would help publicize Moore's movie? Because it hits at the fiction that Giuliani was a heroic figure during September 11, his biggest claim to the Presidency.
Unlike the Democrats, the Republican National Committee picks their candidate early, and the primaries are just window dressing. The only standout candidate among all the Ronald Reagan wannabe's at the debate was Giuliani. Unless the Re-Animator has been hired by the RNC to bring a zombiefied Reagan to the convention, it'll be Giuliani, even with all his baggage. What the hell, they've already hacked the voting machines anyway.
