We need to have one place for all the Rudy stuff. For easy access and so we can keep track of new additions every day.
I think we can all agree, he is by far the most dangerous candidate running on the right. And we need to stop him at all costs.
For my first entry:
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/chi-rudy_singaporenov21,1,6418389.story?ctrack=1&cset=trueWASHINGTON - Nine days after registering his presidential exploratory committee last November, Rudolph Giuliani appeared in Singapore to help a Las Vegas developer make a pitch for a $3.5 billion casino resort.
Though the bid ultimately failed, and there was nothing illegal about the involvement, it drew Giuliani into a complex partnership with the family of a controversial Hong Kong billionaire who has ties to the regime of North Korea's Kim Jong Il and has been linked to international organized crime by the U.S. government.
Giuliani's participation as a security consultant in the Singapore gambling venture illustrates the challenge he faces while attempting to win the Republican presidential nomination with a law-and-order message while maintaining a far-flung, international business portfolio, an unknown portion of which remains in the shadows.
As a candidate, Giuliani is banking on his reputation as a hard-nosed prosecutor and a crime-fighting mayor, along with his performance after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, to trump doubts about his turbulent personal life, his tolerant stands on gambling, abortion and other social issues and perhaps some of the decisions he has made as a businessman.
So far, the strategy seems to be working, as Giuliani leads most polls of GOP presidential contenders.
