He's socially moderate and fiscially conservative, which mirrors most of America and is the type of candidate (along with Thompson and a handful of others) that can run from the right-center to win the general election.

Rudy's socially far left wing, farther left than a large portion of Democrats. Fiscally he's only just liberal.

What he's said and what he's done prove it.

Let's see.. socially far left wing... I see a ton of Democrats willing to kick Arafat out of Lincoln Center like Guliani did (Hillary kissed him). I see a ton of RATs willing to crack down on crime and jail panhandlers and squeegee men like Guiliani did. Most Democrats would rather throw money at the problem. Yep. Law and order, but socially liberal.

It comes down to abortion and gun control that you make the social left wing arguments, but it is a distortion of the entierty of his record.

A fiscal liberal? Cutting taxes? Making welfare recipients work? Cutting the bloated NYC bureaucracy? Those are all liberal fiscal policies, right? No, they are all Republican tenants (many of which are lost on this administration).
