Rudy Giuliani

From The Department Of Wait… What?

January 8, 2011Burt Likko

Rudy! Giuliani is going to run for President again? Recall that in 2005, Giuliani began preparations after a “Draft Rudy” movement formed (and of course he had a hand in that, let’s not be sly about that). He declared in… Continue Reading →

Senator Giuliani

November 20, 2009Burt Likko 3 Comments

So it appears that Rudy! Giuliani will run for Senate in 2010 and not Governor of New York.  This, I think, is not a good use of his skill set.  Rudy! is an executive; he has no experience in a… Continue Reading →

Rudy! For Governor!

August 26, 2009Burt Likko 1 Comment

Hey, you heard it here first! Well, actually, I heard it first at Below the Beltway. And he heard it first in the Gray Lady. So you probably didn’t really hear it here first. But you did hear it here.… Continue Reading →

The Force Will Not Be With Her

July 7, 2009Burt Likko 4 Comments

Big Hollywood blogger Kurt Schlichter is, I fear, a bit too fond of Sarah Palin for his own good. He wrote yesterday that her abrupt and as-yet unexplained resignation from the Governorship of Alaska may have been prompted by media… Continue Reading →

Rudy! On The Reboot

January 22, 2009Burt Likko

From a new website called New Majority, Rudy! talks about what the GOP has become and how it can get better again: Yes, to some extent, it’s the same thing over and over again in the “Republican Reboot” posts here… Continue Reading →

Just A Hypothetical

October 29, 2008Burt Likko

What if I had been right a year ago? What if the parties had nominated Rudy Giuliani and Hillary Clinton instead of Barack Obama and John McCain? Would the race be as one-sided with those candidates? Personally, I think that… Continue Reading →

The Upcoming Narrowing Of The Polls

October 13, 2008Burt Likko 1 Comment

National polls show Obama leading right now by anywhere from four to ten points, with the average being a 6.8% advantage. This spells doom for my bet of a bottle of good Scotch. But on the other hand, the conventional… Continue Reading →

Keynoter

August 21, 2008Burt Likko

Rudy Giuliani will not be John McCain’s running mate. If that were still in the cards, Giuliani would not have been tapped to deliver the keynote speech at the RNC. This, by the way, is also a sop to the… Continue Reading →

What A Long Strange Trip It’s Been

June 3, 2008Burt Likko

Six months ago, looking out at the world of politics, I knew a few things for sure: 1. The Republicans had a mess on their hands. No viable leader for the social conservative movement was stepping up to the plate… Continue Reading →

A Peculiar Request From A Politician

April 15, 2008Burt Likko

Appeals to party unity are always pretty much pure bullshit. So why is John McCain asking his supporters to raise money for Rudy Giuliani? Really, he is. He wants Hizzonner to have retired all of his campaign debt so that… Continue Reading →
