Giulani staunchly defends the practice of abortion and the media seems to be surprised but they should not be Giulani was always a social liberal, or as the were recently called until the word became misused....a neocon. In many of his positions he very like Mrs. Clinton but is I will say quiet up right and honest, and like Mrs. Clinton, I doubt he can win. But unlike Mrs. Clinton I doubt Giulani will survive the primaries.
Giulani, was up front and honest in supporting legal abortion even at the Houston Baptist University but social conservatives will have to honestly choose to vote for someone else. Even though in practical terms the social conservatives have had few if any victories they are still seen as an enemy and a controlling force in politics by a growing number of increasingly religion hostile liberals. John McCain, unlike Giulani, was willing to make a reluctant public statement about his opposition to abortion which I believe is more official than heartfelt.
I feel like when you take Giulani's past into account than his choice to stand up for abortion is no more surprising than the Popes recent opposition to it, which was marveled at by a media who never stops being surprised that the Pope is in fact Catholic. The Pope is Catholic Giulani is a neocon, no surprises.... except the courage with both have stated the obvious this week.
