Is Giuliani Too New York?

"When Republicans say they are skeptical that" former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) "can survive their party's presidential nominating process, they usually point to his record of support for abortion rights, gay rights and gun control," notes the New York Times. "But there may be a less obvious hurdle that Mr. Giuliani has to overcome: Whether he is too much of a New Yorker for the rest of the country."

"Americans like New York City, as officials in both parties are quick to say. Most find it vibrant, entertaining and an object of sympathy and pride since the terrorist attacks five and a half years ago that made Mr. Giuliani the national contender he is today. But the city, with all its tumult and rough edges, is not for everyone. And few people embody all the complicated facets of New York City as much as Mr. Giuliani."
