Rudy in Trouble
How did this thoughtful politician end up so one-dimensional?
(Page 2 of 2)
During his speech Giuliani expressed hope that once the War on Terror — or “the terrorists’ ongoing war on us,” as he insists on repeatedly labeling it — the nation could get back to what it really does best.
“What America would like to do — this is the essential nature of Americans — is sell you something,” he said. “We got something to sell you. We’ve got a product to sell you. We have a process to sell you. We have a computer program to sell you. You name it. We’ll invent it and sell it to you.”
Giuliani needs some new salesmen. He’s a multi-dimensional politician stuck in a one-dimensional candidacy that in these waning hours is doing him no favors.
