He can dodge on abortion, but may get Bern'd on Kerik

<snip>
It will be much tougher for Giuliani to run away from being the mayor of New York who thought a small-timer named Bernard Kerik was not just a hero police commissioner, but somebody who should be running Homeland Security.

Kerik eventually withdrew his name from consideration for Homeland Security because of legal problems involving how a nanny was paid. Of course that was only the beginning of the fun with him. Later it was reported that the married Kerik had used a Battery Park City apartment originally set aside for Ground Zero rescue workers to meet up with Judith Regan, spitfire former publisher to the stars, one of whom was Kerik himself.

Last year Kerik pleaded guilty in New York State court to two misdemeanor charges, admitting that while still head of the cops he took $165,000 worth of renovations on an apartment of his from a contracting company looking to do business with the city, one that allegedly had ties to organized crime. He was fined $221,000.

And, oh by the way, he is currently under federal investigation in matters involving wiretapping, tax evasion and filing false information with the government.<snip> :rofl:

1. I said the same thing last night when KO reported on his contributions
"Planned Parenthood" is a lethal to the right as is "ACLU" it is going to be hard to duck contributions to either

that being said that is all fine and dandy but once he gets to the general election Kerik might as well be his running mate-he will follow Rudy around like a shadow
