Not sure whether as much credit should go to the City Journal as they give themselves. But even to the extent that this might be true, still, it takes a major leader to discover and adopt good ideas - AND to execute them well. Even if they are right, more power to Rudy. Funny - in the end, it may still come down to a fight between him and Hillary C. - but at a higher level. And she already used up some of her ammunition (for nothing), spilling the dirt on Giuliani by publishing a negative book about him, etc., prior to the senatorial election.
