Rick Perry's Ace in the Hole: Rudy Giuliani
Fox Nation ^ | 8/15/2011 | Chris Cillizza (WaPo)

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani continues to mull the possibility of a 2012 presidential bid, but his true power in the race may come if he decides against running and instead throws his support to Texas Gov. Rick Perry.

I never thought we’d get a TS VP before getting a female one.

I don’t understand how anyone thinks they can get a pro abortion candidate through a republican convention.

Adding Giuliani on the ticket could knock anyone out of the race.

I don't think he talks like a conservative, he just says he is one.

In a speech in Mexico in 2007, he said he supported completely open borders, calling for the “free flow of individuals between these two countries who want to work and want to be an asset to our country and to Mexico.”

RINO to the core.

Oh wow. In looking at the pic you posted compared the one I posted I realize Rudy has dressed like that on more than one occasion.

I guess that’s a step up from his ‘88 endorsement of Al Gore.

Not by much when you consider they both have a liberal agenda.
