Giuliani: I'm among best known Americans

By PAISLEY DODDS, Associated Press Writer

LONDON - Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani bragged about his international celebrity Wednesday on a trans-Atlantic campaign trip in which he schmoozed with conservative idol Margaret Thatcher.

"I'm probably one of the four or five best known Americans in the world," Giuliani told a small group of reporters at a posh London hotel as onlookers gathered in the lobby to gawk at actor Dustin Hoffman who was on a separate visit.

The former New York mayor is the latest GOP presidential candidate to travel to Britain, meeting the country's new political guard and rubbing elbows with Thatcher, an icon for American conservatives.

Seriously, folks -- anyone afraid that he may be the most "electable" GOP candidate in the general need not worry. I'd LOVE for him to be their candidate -- he's delusional and an egomaniac.

[daninthemoon]

10. Let a dem candidate say something half that asinine and see how

often it gets repeated by the "liberal" msm. Aside from that, this guy is almost as self deluded as our present potus. He's bound to win.

12. Giuliani is the Textbook Definition of......

e·go·ma·ni·a (g-mn-, -mny, g-)
n.
Obsessive preoccupation with the self.


1. Egomaniac
A person whose ego exceeds both his intelligence and his capacity to see beyond his own personal interests.


2. Egomaniac
1)A self-absorbed waste of oxygen who expects us to grovel at their feet like the unwashed masses they see us as

2.) Someone who talks just to hear themselves (because no-one else will listen)

3.) Someone who posts definitions of their name because they think people care who they are.
