His greatest challenge might well be in his own party. His attitudes on immigration and abortion will make it difficult. The bloggers have enough respect for his conduct on 9/11 to be a little less vicious than they would be with McCain, but only a little.
They will prefer someone who does not have a snow ball's in the general election.
Republicans like to scoff at the nominating process that the Democrats go through and who they end up with...but they are not in a lot different situation themselves.
If Giuliani would take a position that abortion is a state, not a federal issue, I think he might get by. It would help if the Supreme Court sent the issue back to the states by overruling Roe v. Wade.
Hopefully immigration will be resolved before he runs.
He has a stunning presence and is a great speaker. There is much good will out there for him among the general public.
