Rudy Awakening
When one hears about how great Rudy Giuliani somehow was as mayor of New York, one does not hear much about his myriad and obvious faults—supporting the incompetent and corrupt Bernie Kerik, carrying on an open and notorious affair, and even suggesting that he somehow should remain mayor even after his second term was to expire.
But what is almost always left unsaid by Giuliani's supporters, who so ofter hail from outside New York, is that on the fateful day of 11 September 2001, he was hardly heroic and in the months and years leading up, his missteps made the horrible event all the worse.
