Giuliani, His 9/11 Halo No Longer Shining, Drops Out of Race

Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani, has just officially announced he is dropping his bid for the Presidential Race. He had been banking on a Florida win, which didn’t happen yesterday. He was attempting to ride on his laurels as “America’s Mayor” after 9/11. And he was probably counting on all the ex-NYers who are now Floridians. But his liberal views on abortion, as well as his family situation [pre-marital affair, subsequent divorce, and lack of loyalty from his own kids] , didn’t sit well with conservatives, and evidently overshadowed Rudy’s role as 9/11 hero.

When asked if his political life is over, Rudy just said “Never say never”.
