According to Andrew Malcolm, Rudy Giuliani dropped a hint that he might drop out of the race -- and then bounced back to say he'd win Florida.
Dems will miss Guiliani I think. He was the best hope that they had of a relatively easy win in November. All of the other candidates -- from Huckabee (who won't win) to McCain and Romney -- are far tougher for either Clinton or Obama.

He has to do a fabulous curtain call to go with his farewell speech.

Yes, I am sad that the Giuliani bubble popped when it did instead of after he got the nomination.
I'm also sad I didn't break the law and sell some Giuliani contracts on Intrade. I predicted his demise back when those contracts were trading at 40-50 ($5 apiece). They're now worth about $0.80 each.

Agreed. And too bad the progressive blogosphere took the lead in knocking him out prematurely.

Steve,
I was shocked t the posting of "that" picture, having considered TWN as a serious blog that does not engage in trivialities. The moustache was pure camp and you should have know that.

Shirt,
Campy is when Guiliani dressed in drag and kissed Donald Trump! This picture is MILD!

Shirt, you must not be a long time reader. I have many pics of folks up here that show other sides.
And frankly, I love this picture of Giuliani an thinks he does to. It's one of the sides of Giuliani that I think is terrific, though I doubt our Evangelical friends would agree.
But that picture was put up in tribute to a person comfortable with himself. I'd feel much better about Huckabee if he'd dress in drag.
Best,
Steve Clemons

Lets hope that Giuliani takes all those nut-jobs who advise him into the outer darkness with him. Not to likely, unfortunately.
"But that picture was put up in tribute to a person comfortable with himself. I'd feel much better about Huckabee if he'd dress in drag."
I'm not sure about this. I think he was screaming things about himself he didn't know what to do with. Strip it of its sexual content and think about it.
