Fiscal conservative/social liberal
I like Rudy Guiliani for President. The qualities I admire in him are his ability to get things done. We were in NYC in August of 2001 and I noticed that there were empty police cars parked here and there in the Times Square area. A man collapsed in front of us and I went into a store near an empty police car to get some help, but there were no police in the store. The store manager called for help and told me that the empty police cars were a big deterrant to crime in the area. The bad guys didn't know where the police really were. I don't know whose idea it was, but it was a good one. A month later when the Trade Towers were hit, he did not panic and he seemed to help the city keep from panicking. Things went as well as they could given the horror of the day. We may never be attacked again, but if it happens I would like a cool head in charge.
Nobody that I have heard has disputed his fiscal record in New York City. He sounds competent in that area and we do need some fiscal restraint.
I have long been a right-to-life person for myself only. I don't want to tell someone else what to do with their personal life. So, I agree with Rudy there.
He has said he made some bad choices and did things he regretted. That is all I have to hear about his personal life. I am more interested in how he will be as President. I think he will be a good one.
