Let's give it to him. Guiliani gave a really great performance for about 48 hours of his life.
In a nation traumatized by the 9/11 attack, whose two leaders sat like a deer in the headlights reading "My Pet Goat" while the other one ran like a child to hide in his bunker of evil, Guiliani stepped up and played the role of "Comforter in Chief" and national "Daddy."
So why can't he get a nice position on the board of some corporation, or as head of some university, or something, to honor the useful, albeit very short, contribution he has made to society, and MOVE ON?
Otherwise, the man was a terrifying mayor. He's a few rigatonis left of Mussolini. Morally and ethically, he's a one-man land-mine.
He doesn't inspire leadership -- hell, the man doesn't inspire anything except a bad taste in your mouth.
Sorry, Rudy, but I think we need to assume the opposite of anything you have to say these days...
