Former NYC mayor, Rudy Giuliani is all over the news today. Leading off all the morning shows and newspapers are excerpts from the Barbara Walters/20/20 television interview which airs tonight at 10:00pm. Those of us on the call will be able to watch the interview in its entirety online, after the show airs.

Also in the news, is Rudy's recent testimony to a grand jury, investigating charges of mob corruption and bribery of the former mayor's Police Commissioner, Bernard Kerik.

I've been saying for over a month that Rudy has too many skeletons in his closet to be a viable Presidential candidate. Ironically, most of the Press corp and city hall insiders know of these skeletons, but I believe they have remained under wraps because Rudy truly is a powerful fearless man (after all, he went after the mob) and he did accomplish a great many positive things for our city.

So, we'll see how much dirt comes out this weekend and how the Giulianis handle it. Polls so far, without the news of his political indiscressions, shows that he leads McCain by almost 15 pts in the polls. We'll see if Jon's political assesments are right in the end, and that America doesn't care about a candidate's marriage or family.

First, before we go reading and clicking away, I'd like to take a moment to pray for all the victims of these hienous crimes. May the victims receive justice and healing and spiritual wholeness in their lifetime.

In this crime, evil was disguised as a prominent lawyer, coach of several youth teams & as an ACLU Chapter President. The Crime, it's just too horific for me to even write about it.

It is the reason I am glad that Bitterroot is bravely speaking out against these types of crimes and giving parents the knowledge they need to spot, identify and root out these individuals wherever they may be.
