Giuliani reminds me somewhat of Ed Koch. They both just said things that were incorrect, wrong, or really not what was intended. Did not matter to many New Yorkers who cared more about the acts rather than the words. One described Koch as an ebullient personality. Is Giuliani also one?

Well, Giuliani is apparently trying to do something that just is not him - be politically correct. Why? So many of us really don't want honesty. We want political correctness - which means we like lies. Giuliani is not very good at being political correct. He's trying to say what Republican Party mainstream wants him to say. It does not play well for a man whose reputation was more about blunt; who has little experience with being politically correct.

Giuliani grated so many wrong. But he could get things done; could plan for the long term. It is why NYC - without any support from George Jr and his band of extremists - could deal with the event called 11 September. For that matter, NYC simply needed one honest response from the George Jr administration. Was the air toxic? George Jr's administration even lied about that which is why so many post 11 September workers and rescuers are now medically disabled.

But George Jr's administration was politically correct - which too many American really want.
