…because soon he’s going to go up in flames.

First, it emerges that he actually knew that his top cop, the dirtball Bernie Kerik, had ties to a Mob-owned construction company before he nominated Kerik to be New York police commissioner.

Kerik would later cloak himself in glory by bedding not-yet-disgraced book publisher Judith Regan—cheating on both his wife and another mistress—in an apartment near the fallen World Trade Center that was supposed to be used for on-site workers who needed a rest. Kerik had actually solicited use of the apartment from a local real estate firm.

Later, the owner of the apartment crushed a woman to death with his Ford Expedition. What a shock! Police decided not to file charges. The driver, real estate exec Anthony Bergamo, told the cops that he couldn’t see her, even though she was directly in front of him when he ran her over.

So that’s one Giuliani issue. The other is that he just told the New York Times that if he were elected president, his wife would sit in on cabinet meetings. Even Bill Clinton never said that Hillary would attend cabinet meetings….

Rudi, no one’s saying that your wife can’t have a valuable role. But no one elected her to the White House…

Giuliani sounds like J. Howard Marshall or Jack Welch—an old man whose combination of lust for a younger woman and fear of the loss of his own virility cause them to abandon all judgment and start acting like silly old fools. Not the best quality in a president.
