Couple weeks back, there was a spate of stories about Rudy Guiliani as just plain nuts. In fact, go Google "Rudy Giuliani" and "nuts" and see how many hits you get. This morning, I got 493,000. Hell, they're even debating it on Motor Trend Magazine's Forum.
Sidebar: Hmmmm. Maybe we can use Google to track political memes. We'll return to that topic later.
So does Rudy's campaign support the charge or exonerate him? The envelope please.
On the charge of economic craziness? Nuts. Here's Rudy proposing to pay for a tax cut with a tax cut. "Giuliani's remarks prompted a bewildered response from his audience of technology executives." (No fools, they.) "Both Republicans and Democrats said they assumed that the candidate must have misspoken as he responded to a question about the tax and its affect the middle class." But they turned out to be incorrect. Rudy's campaign confirmed what he said, namely the same, old supply-side BS that Reagan and Bush used to generate massive deficits.
The jury will return later to report its verdicts on other charges.
