to spoil the third branch of government.
Who thinks of Giuliani as a moderate? Giuliani is nothing more than the mirror image of Huckabee; Leaving aside Paul (who isn't a Repub notwithstanding the "R" by his name), Huckabee is the most moderate on fiscal and foreign policy issues and also the most socially reactionary candidate where Giuliani is the most reactionary on fiscal and foreign policy issues and also the most socially moderate candidate.
Neither Giuliani nor Huckabee is a moderate. They are both extremists on at least half of the Repub platform; don't mistake the fact that Giuliani and Huckabee have pissed off the far right by varying from party orthodoxy on a few issues cloud the fact that they have only succeeded in the race by making up for that lack of orthodoxy on a couple of issues by extremism on the rest of their platform.
