I have admitted that Rudy!'s weakness on the Second Amendment is my biggest concern. I can't ignore the video but I feel it is mitigated by the change in responsibilities. Hizzoner was pushing an übertough law enforcement policy and had some fiduciary responsibility to his constituents. It's still ill-advised, but I don't know that it is a precursor to weakness in a Giuliani Administration.
I would contrast it with Fred!'s cosponsoring McCain-Feingold (I am told it was once McCain-Thompson-Feingold).
They each take a mulligan and we move on. When the perfect candidate shows up, let me know.
I have to say, the more I see them both, the more I lean towards Thompson myself.

I still feel that Hizzoner might be the better candidate and that he has my kind of economic vision hardwired.
Here's my response to the video

But the following is too important to overlook: Rudy's fatal flaw.
