NBC News:

Giuliani refused to take questions here today about allegations that travel expenses were picked up by obscure city offices when he was mayor of New York City.

"We've already explained it," he said, walking past reporters after a town hall meeting.

Giuliani, who is normally friendly to reporters, bristled past them, and campaign staffers were unusually physical in keeping the press away. Several campaign aides told campaign reporters to return to the press area, and some of his security detail manhandled reporters. On other occasions, reporters have been free to video Giuliani as he is shaking hands and signing autographs after events, and he often informally takes questions from reporters.

The coverage and posts on Rudy are a good indication of how the Democrats are feeling about their slate of candidates and the issues. It seems most Democrats are now locked into scandal as the means to win in 2008.

I usually try to stick to the facts, at least the way I see 'em, but...Guiliani, and I mean no disrespect to any other Republicans on the board, looks absolutely demented! Like he practiced making faces in the mirror while watching films of Mussolini. Now his entire past has come under examination, including his relationship with that--creature, and still he persists. Incredible.

And his aides were "unusually physical..." Well I've heard he likes it rough...

Ron Paul adds something important to the dialogue. I hope he stays in the race as long as possible, and keeps talking forever.

My vote goes to Kucinich.

I'm not a bit surprised by the behavior of Giuliani's escort goons. The man is a bully; if his demands are refused, he has someone else do the muscle work.
Definition of a bully? Scratch a bully, a coward bleeds. Is this what anyone wants for President? Don't we already have that?

Rudy Julie-ani, little pervert that he is. I hate this bastard.

He's just another little pooch, in a country full of pooches. He looks like a rat to me, give him a piece of cheese.

He DOES look like Nosferatu! I actually hope he stays in the race long enough to trash a few of the other Republican candidates ...for trashing him. Collateral damage is good, say I.

This one is too good to ignore. Guiliani debates Joe Biden after Joe Biden said Guiliani was the least experienced person to run for President.

It is from the Boston Globe and called "The Debate You Didn't See" in which both Joe Biden and Guiliani debate Iran, Iraq, North Korea, and Torture. Check this out.

I have said this before and I'll say it again.

As fart passes, after it's unwelcomed salute to the nostrils, so shall Guiliani's moment of fame also pass.

I actually think Guiliani is the only Republican that Hillary can beat!

After all these years looking at a president who looks like a throw back to the chimp gene, the idea of looking at rudy who has so many looks that scare me really really frightens me! He has the permenent scowl with the down turned lips, he has the too many trips to botox, the dresses and make-up, devil outfit and on and on. But he has always been lable randomly throwing two year old type fits to looking like he's been smoking dope or taking drugs to the I'm so happy happy I could just crap to the devil will get you look with the evil eye. He wears his emotions on his botox ladden face where he can and his mouth does the rest for him. Anyone who thinks they will vote for him needs medication and you have a local psychiatric hospital close by to help you get thorugh this problem.
