From one of my former collegues, comes this:
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Republican Rudy Giuliani vows
to be tough on terror, chooses advisers who want to bomb Iran and
doesn't think pretending to drown prisoners is torture.
Add to those views a reputation for being combative, and Giuliani often evokes the word "scary" from opponents who find the tough-guy image that served him so well after the September 11 attacks now a cause for concern as he seeks the U.S. presidency.
Type the word "scary" and names of Republican candidates for president into a leading database of articles. The name of the former New York mayor will get the most hits.
More support for my
point.
