Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani took the first steps last Friday toward making a big mistake. That big mistake would be his run for the President in 2008. I understand that Giuliani was a good mayor and that he did a great job for New York during the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 but that's about it. Let's take a look back to 2000 when Giuliani was running against Clinton for the US Senate. All of the scandal that Giuliani had during that race, leaving his wife, having an affair, the debate over who was going to get to stay in the Mayor's house. Not to forget that Giuliani lost Republicans alot of votes because of the controversy with Al Sharpton.
Don't get me wrong. I like Giuliani. He did do a good job as Mayor on September 11, 2001 but I don't think he would be a good candidate for President. What he should of done was knock Clinton out of the Senate seat in New York this past election? I mean think about it. If he wasn't able to beat Clinton in 2000, he was afraid to run against her in 2006, why does he think he could beat her in 2008? The moral of this story, just because you do good one day at work doesn't mean they should promote you to run the whole country.
